What is We Wash?

We Wash is a trash and recycling can cleaning service that uses environmentally-friendly methods to clean away all of the grime and odor left behind by waste. Founded in Valparaiso, Indiana, we are locally owned and operated, and we currently provide service to Porter County, Lake County, and a growing part of the greater Northwest Indiana region. We can be contacted via the contact us form or via telephone at 219-510-5316.

Why is this service needed?

Over time, trash and recycling cans can become home to harmful germs, fungi, and bacteria like Listeria, E Coli, salmonella, and staph. Also, because of the grime and odor that builds up inside of these bins, they can invite lots of ants, flies, maggots, rats, and other unwanted pests.

These microorganisms and pest-attracting substances cannot truly be washed away with a garden hose and some store-bought chemicals. Thus, to protect the members of a household from exposure to hordes of insects and disease-causing or disease-carrying pests, trash cans should be cleaned on a regular basis like any other part of the home.

How does We Wash get garbage and recycling cans so clean?

Our specialized equipment uses the combined forces of high-temperature, high-pressure water and an environmentally-friendly chemical solution to provide customers with an unmatched clean that is completely green.

Where and when are the cans cleaned?

Convenience is one of We Wash's best traits; our service trucks arrive after trash and recycling cans have been emptied on garbage pickup day and, without any mess or hassle, clean them and leave them right where they were found on the curb. Customers do not need to do a thing and can simply retrieve their now freshly-cleaned bins like they normally would.

Who is We Wash?

The McLinn family, owners, have been citizens of Northwest Indiana for their entire lives. Mike, a retired police officer and his wife Brigid, a school Speech and Language Pathologist, has worked with the public daily and have formed a deep bond with Northwest Indiana. Now, after so many years of public service, they want to provide our communities with a new but sorely needed assistance in the form of We Wash trash can cleaning service. Mike and Brigid are supported by their children A.J. and Max.
