Our Story: From Ski Bums to Sustainability Leaders

ECO-CLEAN Solutions was founded by long-time friends JB Harris & JT Chevallier, who grew up together in Las Vegas, Nevada before answering the call of the Sierra Nevadas.

What began as chasing the ski bum dream grew into a mission to protect the place they now call home, today and for generations to come.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, a surge in tourism took a heavy toll on the pristine landscapes they loved. Witnessing this impact firsthand, they realized their passion for the environment could drive real change. ECO-CLEAN Solutions was created as a way to give back to the places that had given them so much.

Fueled by their love for Tahoe and a drive to protect it, they set out to find smarter, low-impact ways to care for the lake. That search led them to innovative tools like BEBOT and PIXIEDRONE, technologies transforming how beaches and waterways are cleaned.

What began as a far-fetched idea has grown into a grassroots movement, bringing together partners, nonprofits, and land managers to keep Tahoe’s natural beauty alive. Today, ECO-CLEAN Solutions is committed to protecting Lake Tahoe every day and ensuring it remains vibrant for generations to come.

Whether you’re a local, a visitor, or a business looking to support sustainable initiatives, there’s a place for you in this mission.
