School Cleaning & Washroom Supplies

Common requirements include toilet paper and hand towels, hand soap, cleaning chemicals, disinfectants and sanitisers, bin liners, gloves, cloths, mops, buckets and other janitorial consumables. The right mix depends on the school, installed dispensers, surfaces and cleaning arrangements.

Not because of the metropolitan cleaning contract. Under the current Department arrangement, the school supplies personal consumables such as toilet paper, shared soap, hand towels and hand sanitiser by default. A school can agree for its cleaning provider to purchase those products on its behalf, but that is optional. Applicable school procurement requirements still need to be followed. Read School Cleaning Standards in Victoria: Who Supplies What? for the responsibility split.

Check the existing paper dispenser before ordering. Confirm the roll diameter, core size, towel width, fold type and internal dispenser dimensions. Standard rolls, jumbo rolls, compact towels, slimline towels and roll towels are not automatically interchangeable. For selected commercial folded-towel systems, use the paper towel dispenser compatibility guide before replacing working hardware.

Check the existing supply arrangement before removing them. If the current dispensers can remain and accept a compatible paper option, Janitorial Depot can help identify the correct format. If replacement dispensers are required, Janitorial Depot can supply and fit suitable commercial hand towel or toilet paper dispensers free on loan as part of the paper supply arrangement. We will also maintain the loan dispensers and replace them as required if they are broken or become unserviceable.

Jumbo toilet rolls provide more paper per refill and can reduce servicing frequency in busy washrooms. Standard rolls may suit smaller staff bathrooms or existing conventional dispensers. Compare usage, dispenser capacity and the refill format already installed before choosing.

No. Suitability depends on the product, task, surface and label directions. Use each chemical only as directed, keep it correctly labelled and store it appropriately. For Janitorial Depot-supplied chemicals, use the Safety Data Sheets Library to locate available product safety documentation.

Choose by the required application, label claim, surface compatibility, dilution, contact time and rinsing directions. Do not assume one disinfectant or sanitiser is suitable for every classroom, washroom, staffroom or canteen task.

School kitchens and canteens may require dishwashing products, degreasers, suitable sanitisers, gloves, paper products and heavy-duty liners. Match each chemical to the intended task and follow the product label for dilution, application, contact time and rinsing requirements.

Match the liner to the bin capacity, opening width, height, waste type and expected weight. Classroom paper waste may suit a lighter liner, while kitchens, outdoor areas and heavier waste may require heavy-duty or extra-heavy-duty bin liners.

Yes. Use the School Cleaning Supplies Quote & Reorder page to send an existing list or reorder requirement. For regular business purchasing, schools can also review Janitorial Depot business account options. Collection is available from Cranbourne West and delivery can be arranged across Victoria.
