This wiki has been updated 21 times since it was first published in April of 2020. Cleanliness is critically important in almost all professional environments. Besides a skilled hotel maid or custodian, janitorial carts are one of the most important tools for professional cleaning because they allow someone to have almost any supply they could need without returning to a closet or office. We've aggregated the models most likely to enhance and ease your heavy-duty cleaning jobs. When users buy our independently chosen editorial picks, we may earn commissions to help fund the Wiki.

Editor's Notes

May 08, 2020:

Since they are an industrial product, the prices of janitorial carts can get very high. However, this is sometimes the price that has to be paid for professional quality and longevity. If your organization requires a model that will last a long time and doesn't mind a sizeable investment in exchange for reliability, options such as the Rubbermaid Commercial Traditional Cart, Rubbermaid Commercial Products Quick Cart, and Carlisle JC1945 are worth considering. They may lack some of the fancy features found on other options, but these simple, straightforward carts make up for this with sturdy constructions that can be relied upon for years of daily use.

If, however, having advanced features is what's most important to you, take a look at selections like the Farag Janitorial Cart, Tuffiom 3-Shelf, and Simpli-Magic Janitorial Cart. They may lack the all-out sturdiness of some carts, but each provides one or more useful features such as trash bag lids, bag access zippers for eased garbage emptying, or rounded front edges that help prevent accidental tipping.

In some public-facing situations it may be important to have a locking compartment on your cart for expensive or hazardous cleaning supplies. Selections such as the AmazonCommercial Cart, Rubbermaid Commercial Products Quick Cart, and Alpine Industries Housekeeping Cart are great solutions for this situation since they either already feature a locking mechanism, or have it available as an optional extra.

If you're buying a cart as part of an effort to create a new cleaning system or upgrade the one you've already got, you can get more information on the best supplies available by looking at our articles on things like mops, vacuums, and brooms.
