Cleanslate

Transforming our communities,
one block at a time

We do the dirty work that makes our city beautiful.

Our crews see their work as more than a job: it’s an opportunity for their talents to shine. Every block swept clean or graffiti tag removed represents another step toward gainful employment for one, and a stronger community for all.

LITTER ABATEMENT

Litter abatement, recycling, and street receptacle service for single facilities, business districts, and special events.

SNOW REMOVAL

Snow plowing and eco-friendly deicing of sidewalks, parking lots, and other public access areas.

LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE

Maintenance including mowing, trimming, watering, and weed control.

How Cleanslate
Gets To Work

Communities

We serve more than 50 communities throughout Chicago and beyond, keeping our neighborhoods clean, safe, and vibrant. Cleanslate is known for our fast and friendly service and for being a positive presence in the community.

Corridors

With partners like Sterling Bay and CBRE, we maintain retail corridors so local businesses can attract the traffic they deserve. 

Environment

With our dedicated recycling practices, we divert tons of trash from the waste stream, and we perform manual weed removal in order to avoid the use of pesticides. 

Employment

We have a double bottom line – focusing on not just financial returns, but mission returns too. Every job created through Cleanslate is a launching pad to gainful employment.

  • “It’s rare to find a group that does such quality work at a great price. We can’t say enough about our positive experiences with Cleanslate.”
