Provide personalized residential and commercial cleaning services using only chemical-free, non-toxic products and low-emission transportation to reduce our carbon footprint.
A truly clean home shouldn’t come at the expense of your health or the environment. Harsh cleaners, chemical disinfectants, synthetic fragrances, and the residue they leave behind can affect the air you breathe, the surfaces you touch, and the waterways we all share.
That’s why River City Cleaning uses only non-toxic, eco-friendly cleaning products. We believe your home should feel fresh, healthy, and safe for your family, your pets, and the world beyond your front door.
Nature offers some surprisingly effective cleaning solutions. While our professional products are more advanced than what’s in your kitchen, they’re built on the same philosophy: using safer, eco-friendly ingredients that clean powerfully without harsh chemicals.
At River City Cleaning, we don’t rely on bleach or other harsh chemicals that can leave behind lingering fumes and residues. Instead, we use non-toxic products that are tough on dirt but safe for your family, your pets, and our team.
The result is a home that’s not only spotless, but healthier too—protecting the people who live there and the environment we all share.
River City Cleaning is based right here in Richmond, not run out of a call center or franchised from out of state. That means every dollar spent with us goes back into this community – studies from American Express and Civic Economics have found that roughly half or more of every dollar spent at a small, local business stays local, compared to a much smaller share at national chains. It also means the people who clean your home or business are your neighbors: real jobs, for real people, right here in Central Virginia.
We clean the neighborhoods we live in. Our clients tend to be people who care about the same things we do – their homes, their health, and their community – and we take that trust seriously with every visit.
We also use products like borax (a natural mineral that’s safe and effective for cleaning all sorts of things), soybean oil (as an anti-streaking agent), distilled water, and, of course, good old-fashioned elbow grease.
