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. 

Providing homes and businesses with effective waste management is a service that City

Carting & Recycling has been doing for over 35 years. If you’re looking for dumpster rental

or services, give us a call at (888) 413-3344 to request a free quote, or visit us on our website!

Reusing Boxes & Cardboard

Cardboard is arguably one of the most common things you’ll find in a garage, basement,

or in storage at a home. Packages come in this material, they’re used for moving, and even

basic insulation and fragile material protection! But cardboard has more use than you might

think -- especially beyond the normal things it’s tasked with helping out with. Check out some

of the cooler ideas you can use cardboard for at home!

Insulation

Whether you’ve got pets, or you’re just a little cold, cardboard can provide a cheap insulation

for you during the colder months of the year. An outdoor pet home can be double-lined with

cardboard between, underneath and inside -- and alternatively, the same thing can be done

inside of a makeshift shed or treehouse! These small additions of wind reducing and

nsulating material is a cheap option usually not thought of by many. Just keep it dry!

Work Station

If you’re the type of person who works on the floor a lot, cardboard might be you and your

driveway’s best friend. Imagine doing an oil change with the ability to protect your concrete

and your back at the same time -- with almost no added cost! Slide a large piece of cardboard

under the car and use it to rest on and catch oil drippings. 

Crafts!

With the kids (or even by yourself) using cardboard to create little crafts that can be decorated

is an easy and free way to pass time and get in touch with your creative side! Additionally,

cardboard can be used to help separate items in drawers and cabinets that need a bit of

sprucing up! Just paint and enjoy!

New Year Resolutions For Your Home

The new year, and the new decade is on the horizon -- and while it’s important to think about

what you can be doing for your own life, maybe an easier resolution to also add to the list

can include things for your home! A few things we feel are great resolutions for you can be

found below!

A Schedule

Cleaning stinks -- and nobody wants to spend the entire day doing it on the weekend. So

instead of making it something you slave over for hours at a time, dedicate at least 15

minutes per day in tidying up one room in the house. When you’re done, move to the next,

and keep that system going each day. Not only will the house get clean, but you’ll feel

better stepping back and seeing how much you accomplished!

Waste Management

A second garbage can will only run you a few dollars, and an extra bag every few days.

With this, you can safely separate things like food and actual waste from one another,

and start something a bit more useful with those things -- like a compost pile, or something

else eco-friendly. The options for you are endless and it’s never a bad idea to consciously

throw things out in different ways. 

Project Work

Before hiring someone to do the job for you, think about some of the smaller projects you

wanted to accomplish, and consider how you can get them done right the first time. This

way, you can learn and understand what needs to be done, and learn a new skill at the same

time. We think that’s a win-win!

Is City Carting Right For Me?

Whether you’re a new resident of the area or a business looking for a solution, garbage

is something you’ll always think about, as ultimately, it has to go somewhere. But when it

comes down to companies and service providers who are offering what seems like the same

thing, making your decision is difficult. Below are a few things that might set City Carting

different from the rest and provide solid reasoning as to whether or not they’re for you or not.

Holiday Cleanup Ideas

At home, whether hosting or not, cleaning up after yourself is an idea that can help you

feel more productive, make your home appear larger, and create a cozier living space!

However in many situations, holiday cleanup only occurs once after everything is put away

or set up -- and that can lead to bad habits! Instead, check out a few ways you can

incorporate cleaning into a routine schedule.

Dusting

Although dust doesn’t appear overnight, after moving a lot of things around at home,

dust can accumulate in spaces you didn’t originally see it, and can cause allergy flareups

and a lot of sneezing. In an effort to combat this, make sure you dust before moving items

around, and afterward as well, just to be safe. This helps everyone and keeps your home

nice and sparkling!

Sweeping

Similar to dusting, the holidays can bring a number of other things into your home that

you’re not used to seeing. Extra food, feet tracking in dirt, and other activities can begin to

create dirt and buildup on floors, carpeting, rugs and more. Make sure a weekly routine

includes breaking out the broom and vacuum!

Separation

Let’s face it- -- the holidays are full of food, gifts, and other items that otherwise take up

space in your garbage can, and around your home. Make sure to properly separate things

in your garbage for easy cleanup and removal (and collection), and you’ll thank yourself

when it’s done. Food, paper, recyclables and other items should find their way into different

bags and receptacles in order to create a seamless disposal process.

Does Cold Weather Affect My Waste?

As the season shifts into the colder climate, many home and business owners have questions about their waste and the practices that may or may not change with it. Typically, there are a few minor shifts that can contribute to your waste when the temperatures begin to drop, but it’s nothing to worry much about. Below are just a few things you should take note of as the seasons change.

Keep Lids Closed

As with any season, animals love rummaging through your trash for a tasty treat to snack on. The problem is, they’re not so good at cleaning up. In addition to a nice meal, some animals might seek refuge in your garbage cans during the colder months. To combat this, make sure your lids remain closed at all times and if needed, add a bungee cord to the top for added protection.

Inclement Weather

Does weather make a difference? Most of the time, no — but for certain circumstances, there are things to look out for when you’re planning on tossing the garbage to the curb. Before a bad snowstorm or predicted event with bad weather, certain garbage services may be delayed or postponed to a later date. To find out more about this, keep up to date with your provider and look for updates via their website or email systems!

Of course, choosing a provider that can handle everything without fail is one of the best first steps to success. With City Carting, we provide everything you need to make sure you’re ready for the task at hand!

Providing Construction Solutions With City Carting

Remodeling your home can sometimes be the daunting thorn in your side that you just can’t seem to escape. When it’s finally time to begin the process, there are a number of factors that make up a few things, such as completion time, cost and more. But when there’s a job to be done, there’s always a way to streamline it — and for City Carting, we specialize in helping you do just that!

Construction Containers

Depending on the size of your job, the size of your container will matter greatly! When you’re planning out the job and what needs to be done, take into consideration how much watse and product will be making its way into the container, and select a size that best fits your needs. Our trucks can help by dropping it off when you need it, and picking it back up when you’re done — as long as the size is where it needs to be!

Trash Removal

One of the best benefits for selecting a waste management provider to handle the waste is the lack of attention you need to pay to it. As mentioned, when you’re finished with everything and it’s time to take the container back, we bring everything to one of our premium locations and sort it as necessary. In short, we do all of the hard work so you don’t have to!

When we set out to make the process easier for our clients, we deliver! That’s why over 11,000 customers and counting trust City Carting with all of their waste management needs!
