National Cleaning Week Is In Full Swing

This week, March 26 to April 1, 2023, has been designated as National Cleaning Week.

Each year, starting on the fourth Sunday in March, the annual tradition of spring cleaning is celebrated, as spring is the most popular time for deep cleaning.

The American Cleaning Institute (ACI) theme for this year’s National Cleaning Week is Understanding Clean.

Everyone has a right to understand what is in the cleaning products they bring into their homes. Cleaning product manufacturers are providing more information than ever before and are committed to making this information consistent, accessible, and understandable. For National Cleaning Week, it’s important to raise awareness of these resources and how they can enhance understanding of the cleaning process and cleaning products.

Origins Of National Cleaning Week

Spring cleaning has been a time-honored tradition since ancient times for both religious reasons and practical ones. It provides an opportunity to remove dust, dirt, and clutter from the home coming out of the winter months. Find out more about the origins of spring cleaning on the following blog post.

National Cleaning Week has been celebrated by the cleaning and cleaning products industry for many years and has been recognized by several state governments.
