How to Use This Tool

Remove leading and trailing whitespace from every cell in your CSV. This cleans up inconsistent spacing that can cause issues with data matching, lookups, and imports. Only spaces before and after cell values are removed — spaces within values are preserved.

  1. Provide your CSV — Paste CSV text into the input area, drop a CSV file onto the File tab, or enter a URL on the URL tab.
  2. Review the output — All cells have been trimmed of leading and trailing whitespace.
  3. Get your output — Copy the trimmed CSV to your clipboard or save it as a .csv file.

FAQ

3 questions
Does this tool upload my data?
No. It runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your CSV data is never sent to a server.
Does this remove spaces in the middle of values?
No. Only leading spaces (before the value) and trailing spaces (after the value) are removed. Spaces within the value are preserved.
Does this affect the header row?
Yes. Whitespace is trimmed from header cells as well as data cells.
