Cleaning in the Roblox experience Valley Prison requires joining the Janitor role under the Department of Corrections (DoC) and equipping a Broomstick. Once equipped, you walk through the facility to find liquid puddles or floor stains and click them directly. Each cleared puddle grants 15 XP and 1 Job Point, making routine cleaning a reliable, low-risk way to level up.
How to Clean Puddles Step-by-Step
Cleaning is an interactive job loop tied to specific tools and roles provided by the Department of Corrections. Follow these steps to clean the facility:
- Select the Janitor Role: Open your team selection and choose the Janitor role, which falls under the Department of Corrections team.
- Equip the Broomstick: Access your inventory and equip the Broomstick, a blue cleaning broom with a grey swivel cap.
- Locate Puddles or Stains: Walk through common areas, hallways, and cell blocks looking for dark puddles on the ground.
- Click to Sweep: Hover your cursor over the puddle with your Broomstick equipped and click your primary mouse button to sweep the spill away.
- Collect Your Rewards: Clearing a puddle immediately rewards you with 15 XP and 1 Job Point.
Janitor Equipment: Broomstick vs. Spray Bottle
The Department of Corrections provides two distinct maintenance items to the Janitor role, but only one performs the functional puddle-clearing task.
| Item Name | Primary Function | In-Game Rewards | Interaction Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| Broomstick | Removes floor puddles and stains | 15 XP and 1 Job Point per puddle | Click on puddles or floor stains while equipped. |
| Spray Bottle | Roleplay cleaning chemical (Cleeox®) | None (Roleplay tool) | Left-click (LMB) sprays chemicals into the air. Displays "clean clean spray" on hotbar hover. |
While the Cleeox® Spray Bottle produces cosmetic chemical sprays for prison roleplay scenarios, the Broomstick is the required mechanical tool for clearing stains and gaining experience.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can inmates or civilians clean puddles in Valley Prison?
Official community documentation lists the Broomstick as equipment issued specifically to Janitors under the Department of Corrections. Regular inmate and civilian loadouts do not spawn with the standard cleaning broom.
Does using the Spray Bottle clear puddles?
No. Wiki data confirms the Cleeox® Spray Bottle is designated for roleplaying purposes. Left-clicking with the bottle sprays out cosmetic cleaning chemicals, but sweeping away puddles to claim XP requires the Broomstick.
Is cleaning faster for XP than fixing vents?
In community testing, fixing a broken vent as Maintenance yields 20 XP, compared to 15 XP per puddle cleaned as a Janitor. However, vents only break when escapees tamper with them or when generators fail, whereas puddles regularly spawn across multiple rooms in both the Corrections and Minimum/Medium Security buildings.
