San-A-Can Inc

Our story at San-A-Can started like many others. We recognized a problem and set out to find a solution for it!

It all began in the summer of 2015, when we were out in our garage with the kids and were complaining about the flies everywhere. We knew the flies were around because of our trash cans. Our founder Jacob said that he wished that there was someone he could hire to clean his trash cans. We all talked about how much of a pain it is to clean those garbage cans. They are big, deep, and NASTY! There really is no good way to clean them! ​

That's when it all started. We did some research and found that there are people that clean trash cans (or rubbish bins as they are called in the UK), just not anywhere near us. We found out that this industry has been around for over 20 years! As it turns out, areas throughout Europe and Asia have been providing this service for quite some time. In fact, it is now a municipal service provided along with trash pickup in many cities around the globe, including parts of the U.S.

We were amazed to find that areas much less progressive than ours were being provided this service...but not us in Chicagoland! We knew we had to do something about this and with that San-A-Can was born.
