Cleaning Products

The center doesn’t provide cleaning products for your apartment. However, cleaning products are often left behind by previous students. These are typically found under kitchen or bathroom sinks. Here are some recommended cleaning supplies:

Toilet bowl cleaner
All-purpose cleaning spray
Dish soap
Dishwasher soap
Clorox and/or Clorox wipes
Floor cleaning products (based on your preference)

Each apartment has a dustpan and hand broom, vacuum cleaner, and a Swiffer mop. You will need to provide new cleaning pads for the Swiffer mop, so you may want to add those to your grocery list.

Additional Supplies

Trash bags
Paper towels
Aluminum foil
Ziploc bags
Food storage containers
Laundry soap
Toilet paper

Grocery Store Trips and Delivery Options

We will provide a ride to a grocery store after you arrive. You will work on routes to grocery stores in your first week, and you will find that other students will be happy to take you along on their grocery trips as well.
