Default Where do you get cleaning supplies?

I've been wondering this for a little while, our hostel/hotel has been running fine for awhile, every week or so we make a big trip out to costco and get another weeks worth of supplies.

I was wondering if anyone ordered online or knew of a good place to order online for the usual stuff(toilet paper, soft scrub, bleach, etc)

I came across uclean.com, but have no idea whether or not it's any good. Does anyone have any where they like to shop?

Hi scohoe, ecolab have been supplying the Hotel and Restaurant industry for many years, have you been to there website? They deliver, so that will save you the cost/time to drive over to costco. Inventory control is very important, hiring a trained housekeeper will help you in this area of cost control. The website ; www.ecolab.com.

good luck

Patrick
