You open the door to your apartment and the aroma of lavender greets your senses. Oil candles are burning and your place is sparkling. Either your significant other has gone off his or her rocker or Kleen Green, the healthiest and most environmentally cleaning service offered in Chicago, has paid you a visit. Then you check your bathroom to see the shedding from your hair has been eliminated, your garbage has been emptied and your ceiling fan is polished. Okay, you’re being ridiculous if you’re still trying to guess who’s responsible. It was certainly Kleen Green. 

  Jacare Thomas, along with his wife - Charlette, brother- Jack, and cousin-Bryant Howard birthed Kleen Green over Thanksgiving dinner.  They realized they wanted to do something more with their degrees. Beginning their own business was their final verdict.

After a trip to a local store, Jacare “saw the dishwashing liquid that was (environmentally) green was cheaper.” It led him to “wonder what else could I exchange for a green product? So I just started picking up more green cleaning supplies.”

   The money-saving and health conscious Jacare and his family embarked on a green lifestyle from revamping the families cleaning supply choices to carpooling. Truly practicing what he preaches, Jacare brings his lifestyle to barbershops, salons, condos, and apartment buildings around Chicago through Kleen Green.

   Your Kleen Green appointment begins with a consultation in which employees ask about your preferences, strongest dislikes about cleaning, and what products you are currently using. Jacare and staff are dedicated to making “the cleaning personalized and a good experience. At the end of each cleaning we do a walkthrough. We also burn a natural oil of your choice during the cleaning. We give a green tea bag as a reminder of the health benefits as well as of (the company).” And get this…they’re affordable. Kleen Green is comparably more affordable than the average cleaning service available in this city.

In the midst of working full time as an educator for the Chicago Public School system Jacare participates in a few social sports clubs. He and his family are looking to expand the Kleen Green concepts of environmental well being into a social sports league of their own.

Here are a few tips that Jacare and Jack Thomas left for InChiCity readers:

On Dusting:   

Make sure you dust on a regular basis. Not only does it help with the high rates of asthma, but also it will help you have to polish less frequently.

On Microwaves:

           There are ways you can sanitize your microwave. There are dangers to putting  chemicals in your microwave. Hot water for your microwave is sufficient.

On Being Green and Kleen:

Make an effort because it will pay off in health and life. Be conscious about what you’re doing.
