How To Keep A Routine Cleaning Regimen

As a homeowner, a routine cleaning schedule is something that you should always strive for,

no matter the situation! Even fifteen minutes of free time per day can help straighten up a room

in your home -- and multiplying that by 7 days per week can make a huge impact overall! Below

are a few ways to keep a steady cleaning regimen at home and how it can benefit you.

Fifteen Minute Rule

As stated above, fifteen minutes can be the difference between a dirty room and a clean one!

Depending on the time it was last cleaned, sometimes this is enough time to do a bit of

straightening up, vacuuming, and organizing to get everything looking great again. Who knows,

once you’ve begun working, you’ll likely use a few extra minutes just to get everything perfect,

if it takes longer than the original fifteen.

Waste Routines

It’s important to know how often you should be getting rid of the waste in your home, and the

benefit to a schedule is you never have to wonder when it’s time to get rid of the waste! You

can enlist the help of a waste management company (that’s us!) to assist with picking up all

waste on specific days and get yourself moving into a better routine with no mess left behind

to worry about.

Have Your Supplies Handy

When you’re out of a cleaning product, it’s easy to sit back down and say you’ll handle it at

a different time. The problem with this mindset is that most of the time, that time never comes

and things get pushed off to the side and forgotten. Try to keep yourself accountable to the

things you say you’ll do -- and when all of your supplies are ready and in stock in the closet, it’s

much easier to get yourself going.

Is Waste Management Right For Me?

Many people will ask themselves, whether they’re a new homeowner or a business owner,

if structured waste management is right for them. And while it might not seem like waste

management in this capacity is overly necessary or required, there are a few things that

provide benefit to those who use it, rather than solve the problem themselves

Routine Scheduling

Whether you’re part of a business or are just looking for a residential solution, scheduling

your trash pickup is easier and easier. Let’s face it, you’re busy, and garbage bags are and

should be the last of your concern. Why spend time thinking about where you’re going to take

it and when you have the time. Ultimately, you should prepare yourself with someone who

can come on a schedule and take things away without any work on your end. Easy!

Amount of Waste Is Key

Once your amount of waste surpasses a threshold where it’s not manageable by just you

anymore, the questions begs as to why you wouldn’t just take the task off of your plate. And

when there’s someone who can handle how much you need via smaller front/rear load

containers AND 40yd units, there’s no reason to put it on yourself. We’ve got the capacity

to handle everything you need all at once.

Do You Need It?

In many cases, mandated waste management is something required by certain municipalities,

and as such, you may actually be required to use a service like this in order to dispose

of your waste. In this case, make sure you team up with the right people who can handle

the job for you correctly the first time!

Preventing Odors and Buildup at Home

Foul odors at home can turn the stomach of almost anyone within a radius to smell it --

and it can really make your home feel anything but cozy! However with that in mind, there

are things you can do to combat the issue of a foul odor or less than appealing buildup

within the house. Here are a few things you can try to get rid of the odors.

Check Your Garbages

More often than not, your garbage contributes to most of the foul odors found in a home.

If you’ve been unsuccessfully emptying the bin and cleaning out the inside, you might be

experiencing a foul odor from items and liquids left behind, which can be equally as gross!

Make sure to thoroughly give these a good washing every once in a while to prevent it from

happening.

Drains & Moisture

If your drains are backed up in any way, that probably means something inside is causing

it to be slow -- which means whatever is in the pipe, has also likely gone bad. Instead of letting

that become an issue or trying to mask it, have some professional plumbing work conducted

and see if that helps. Additionally, excess moisture in your home might be the reason your

home smells musty, as standing water can breed mold growth. 

Sweet Scents

Some older homes just tend to have their own smells, and if you’re new to the building,

there’s usually only a few ways to fix that. Baking bread, lighting candles, cleaning walls and

carpets are all smaller ideas that can help you get rid of foul odors and promote better ones

from being in the house. 

If you’re in need of someone to help get rid of foul smelling garbage, equip yourself with a

team that can do so! City Carting is prepped and ready to help you the moment you need

us!

Adjusting Your Cleaning Regimen This Year

With 2020 in everyone’s sights, it’s important to know that you have the next few months

to a year set up, in place, and ready to tackle. What you as a home or business owner should

consider, is the notion that your home may need a bit of cleaning up every now and again.

If you’ve noticed that sometimes, your home could look a little better, perhaps adding a few

things to your routine could help! Here are a few ideas that might assist you in the coming

months.

Organize Your Equipment

It’s important that in addition to cleaning a space and making it look good, that your arsenal

of cleaning materials are available to you when you need them/ Tidy up the closet or pantry

where things are located and take advantage of knowing where things are, which will

drastically reduce the time needed to prep and much less time spent asking ‘where is the

darn _____?’

Work Top Down

When it comes to cleaning, no matter what it is, work from the higher parts of the room first,

and move down as you see fit. This helps you in the long run because after you’ve dusted

& cleaned at the top, you won’t have to worry about anything up there again. If you’re

constantly jumping between processes, you might miss a spot, rendering an ineffective

cleaning process. 

Manage That Waste

Don’t just look at your garbage as one big pile of everything -- help yourself by managing it

a bit differently! Food, sensitive items, and other materials should be separated for ease --

and you might even figure out a way to reuse them! When you have a proper waste plan in

place, everything becomes easier.
