Founder Spotlight: Where It All Started

In 2010, Dylan Goggs embarked on a mission to make a difference in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. After volunteering with local community groups, he recognized the potential in individuals who faced barriers to traditional employment. With a single pickup truck and two employees, Dylan founded CleanStart, aiming to provide meaningful work opportunities and comprehensive property services.

Over the years, CleanStart has evolved into a trusted partner for non-profit housing groups, property management companies, and residential clients. Our commitment to social impact is evident in our collaborations with organizations like BC Housing and Atira Women’s Resource Society. Despite our growth, Dylan’s original vision—to empower individuals through employment—remains the cornerstone of our operations.
As we reflect on our journey, we’re proud of the positive change we’ve fostered in our community. Dylan’s leadership continues to inspire our team to uphold the values of compassion, efficiency, and discretion in every job we undertake.
