July proved to be an explosive month for Clean the World. We welcomed new partner properties at a record-breaking pace, expanded our operations throughout North America, and onboarded many noteworthy properties, including a rather exclusive property in south Florida.
The potential impact of this effort is staggering. These 56 properties added in July equate to 6,757 rooms, each outfitted with plentiful soaps and shampoos for guests. These rooms provide more than 8,492 lbs. of discarded amenities, which now will be diverted from landfills due to our recycling efforts. Also, by recycling the soaps from these rooms, nearly 5,188 needy children will have enough soap to keep themselves clean for an entire month. Now that’s cause for celebration!
Finally, Clean the World will pull on its snow boots and prepare for an avalanche of partnership success in the Great White North. Clean the World has officially launched the Canadian branch of our amenity recycling program, and in its first week of operation, our Canadian partners have delivered a lovely, quaint property in Victoria, British Columbia.
Abigail’s Hotel is an exquisite property nestled in the heart of downtown Victoria. This 1930s Tudor-style building is absolutely breathtaking. Expedia Insiders has rated Abigail’s among the top one percent of hotels worldwide. Adding the soap recycling program to this elegant property should only boost its already impressive standing among future guests.
