Museum of Clean Showcases The Past, Present and Future

The Museum of Clean opened in November 2011 in Pocatello, Idaho. The 50,000-square-foot brick warehouse dates from 1916 and has been renovated to meet LEED:EBOM Platinum standards.

When visitors enter the museum they are greeted by a replica of Noah’s Ark. The ark emphasizes the importance of water in the cleaning profession. (Photo courtesy of Monte Stiles).

On display are 50 pre-electric vacuums. Visitors are encouraged to pick up the old equipment and see how far cleaning has come.
