    Why Cleaning Your Chutes Is So Critical?

     

    Cleaning Trash Chutes Improves Air Quality

    Just like a chimney, garbage or trash chutes have an up-draft This can force unhealthy odors, nasty smells and air-bourne bacteria from inside the garbage chute walls to be wafted back into the building. These airborne pathogens and odors will spread into the communal areas as residents open the garbage chute doors in order to dispose of their trash. By a process of osmosis, they will find a way into private areas as well creating a putrid atmosphere.

    Cleaner Chutes For Bacteria Control

    When building tenants discard their trash into a garbage chute, Disposal bags contain all manner of waste, including leftover bacteria-ridden food.  As all Maintenance personnel knows, garage bags have a tendency to open and can rip easily. As this often happens, the wet trash can stick to the inner walls of the chute and the dry garbage will stick to the wet garbage providing an optimum place pests such as mice, rats, maggots or roaches.

    Clear Garbage Chutes Prevent Fires

    It is almost impossible to prevent grease from spilling onto the edges of your trash chute. What you can do, though, is invest in trash chute cleaning. If grease leaks out of a garbage bag and coats the sides of a chute, it is a fire hazard. All that is needed is some overheating or a rogue spark to ignite and the grease will catch fire and put the lives of those in your building at risk.  

    Extending the Life of Your Trash Chute

    It is a fact of life that some trash may stick to the sides and seem impossible to remove and may build up over time. it is necessary to get a proper cleaning. With deep cleaning, all the leftover trash that your chute may have seen over time will be gone. It will be transformative with professional cleaning services to remove bacteria buildup.

With professional cleaning, the removal of dangerous materials will ensure that your trash chute will maintain structural integrity for longer giving your residents peace of mind.
