Cost of Handheld Odor Eliminators

No one wants their facility to smell bad, but no one wants to spend a fortune on air fresheners either. You want an effective solution, but what price tag will you be looking at?

At State Chemical, we manufacture and distribute chemical solutions for various problems, including odors. It’s more or less impossible to make a purchase without first researching the price, and for commercial-grade products, this task can sometimes prove tricky.

To help you determine whether air care will work for your budget, we will explain the general cost of various odor elimination products. After reading, you’ll know whether these options are right for you.

What is a Ready-to-Use Air Care Product?

Before diving into pricing, it’s important to establish what a ready-to-use air care product is. This term refers to handheld products that eliminate odors and freshen a space, including air fresheners, odor eliminators, fabric refreshers, and more.

Handheld air care products are a good solution for small-space odors and infrequent odors. If you’re looking for large-space solutions or solutions to severe odors, explore scent diffusers instead.

How Much Do Commercial Air Fresheners Cost?

Commercial air fresheners are usually the typical aerosol sprays you’ll think of when you think of “air freshener,” except they are intended for use in commercial facilities.

Depending on the brand, product, and quantity purchased, the price can vary, but commercial air fresheners usually cost $3–$16 per can. Meanwhile, a household air freshener is more likely to be $2–$9 per can.

How Much Do Commercial Odor Eliminators Cost?

Odor eliminators are very similar to air fresheners. They usually come in an aerosol or spray and look fairly similar. The difference is that odor eliminators chemically neutralize odors by changing their composition and/or removing them from the air. Meanwhile, unless an air freshener’s label claims it has an odor eliminator, it may only mask odors with a pleasant fragrance.

Commercial odor eliminators usually cost $5–$20 per bottle, depending on brand, product, and quantity purchased. Meanwhile, the household equivalent might be $3–$12.

How Much Do Fabric Refreshers Cost?

fabric refresher can be used on fabrics, textiles, and upholstery, such as carpets, furniture, bedding, and more. Usually, fabric refreshers come in a spray that eliminates odors and adds a pleasant scent to the application area.

Commercial fabric refreshers typically cost $5–$30 per bottle depending on brand, product, and quantity purchased. Meanwhile, household options are usually $4–$15.

How Much Do Specialty Air Care Products Cost?

Specialty air care products can be more varied than those previously mentioned. The options are essentially limitless, but the specialty products we will cover are total-release odor eliminators, granulars, and solids.

Total-Release Odor Eliminator Cost

A total-release odor eliminator, also known as a fragrance fogger, is a trigger-activated air freshener. Once pressed, a mechanism clicks into place, and the canister fogs the room with fragrance (so it’s important that you leave the room after activating it). This is a valuable tool for cleaning and/or turning over rooms.

Typically, a single total-release odor eliminator canister will cost $8–$25.

Granular Odor Eliminator Cost

Granular odor eliminators are usually used in dumpsters to absorb foul-smelling liquids. This way, odors are neutralized at the source and replaced with a more pleasant fragrance.

The price of granular odor eliminators can vary by brand, product, and quantity purchased. Overall, the most efficient way to view the price for this product category is by cost per use. Many companies do not disclose their cost per use, and it would be unethical if we disclosed these prices. Instead, we’ll provide you with the price per use of our granular odor eliminator, DumpStar™.

DumpStar costs $13.88–$16.96 per use, and you would get roughly 24 uses out of each case. Different brands differ in price, but this is an example of what you can expect to pay.

Solid Deodorizer Cost

Solid deodorizers include beads, wafers, blocks, gels, and more. They can be placed in essentially any indoor area to absorb foul odors and replace them with fresh smells.

Depending on the brand, product, and quantity purchased, solid deodorizers will generally cost $5–$30 per unit.
