Our story

22+ years of doing cleaning differently.

The Clean Crew started because cleaning was being treated as a throwaway job, easy to ignore and never really valued. We thought it deserved better.

22+ years on, we're a team of 28, trusted by more than 150 Hawke's Bay businesses, and proudly carbon neutral. We've put a lot into our crew, our gear, and the tech that lets you see what we do, but the heart of it hasn't changed: care, consistency, and doing the job properly.

We're here to make your space healthier, safer, and better to look at, and to leave the planet a little better than we found it.

Our mission

To lift the standard of cleaning across New Zealand by pairing trained crews with honest technology and greener methods, so every client sees the difference on every visit.

Our vision

A cleaning industry where going carbon neutral, being open about the work, and treating cleaners well is just normal, not something special.

Who we are & what we do

Hawke's Bay's most trusted commercial cleaners— see the difference for yourself.

What we stand for

The values our crew lives by

Six things guide how we work, from who we hire to the products and partners we choose.

Sustainable by design

We pick our products, methods, and partners with our carbon footprint in mind. For us, being green isn't a tagline, it's just how we work.

Quality without compromise

Documented checklists, supervisor audits, and instant in-app feedback mean every clean meets the same high standard.

Curious and innovative

We built New Zealand's first cleaning-industry tracking app. We're never done improving our craft.

Transparent relationships

Clear scopes, honest pricing, and proactive communication. You always know what we're doing, when, and why.

People before tasks

Our crew is checked, trained, and treated well. Happy teams do better work, simple as that.

Pride in detail

Edges, ledges, and corners. The bits other cleaners miss are the ones we pay attention to.

Sustainability commitment

Carbon neutral cleaning, independently certified.

To get our Toitū Net CarbonZero certification, we measured our whole footprint, transport, products, waste, and energy, cut it down where we could, and offset the rest through certified New Zealand carbon projects. It's independently checked and renewed every year.
