Nowadays there are so many different kinds of cleaning supplies, for different purposes, but it’s safe to say that some are just a must in every cleaner’s bag! Here is a short list of the top-tier cleaning tools for commercial use!
Mop and bucket
Nothing can top the good ol’ mop and bucket combination – at least as a starting or finishing phase of the cleaning process. In order to freshen up the floors, you’ll need a bucket with a cleaning solution and a good mop! Also, a lot of people end up using the bucket instead of a bag to carry the rest of their cleaning products, so that’s also a plus!
Duster
The dust won’t magically disappear, so bringing a tool that’s strictly for cleaning dust and dirt from surfaces is recommended! A duster or a microfiber cloth is an absolute must if you want to leave every inch of the space looking spotless! Best used for cleaning shelves, tables, countertops, and other areas!
Vacuum cleaner
A commercial cleaning kit is not complete without a good vacuum cleaner! This is especially important for areas with carpets but can also be used on bare floors as well. There are a few different vacuum types to look out for, it all depends on the purpose! There are great vacuums that are strictly for the floor, whilst there are smaller, hand vacuums that can get rid of dirt and accumulated particles in smaller areas!
Power washer
Sometimes you have to bring out the heavy-duty tools, and in most cases, that’s going to be a pressure washer! While this is used for particular reasons, it’s actually quite versatile, a Giraffe Tools pressure washer has multiple settings, so it can suit whatever surface you want to clean. This is an extremely powerful tool, and it’s great for deep cleaning and outdoors, but it can also be used indoors with a proper setting and water pressure! Having this in your inventory is a great idea – especially if the client states that they need a thorough cleaning!
A supply cart
In order to bring all your desired tools and cleaning supplies, you’ll need a supply cart – especially if you are cleaning a few buildings or floors in a row, this is the easiest way to have all your equipment ready and at the tip of your fingers/ With this, you’ll also need to bring a lot of disposable tools as well, such as sponges and brushes for scrubbing. These things are seemingly small compared to bigger, heavy-duty tools, but they make all the difference! Also using a respirator or a mask is a must when dealing with harsh cleaning solutions, mold, or just dirt in general!
At the end of the day, it all depends on what kind of space you’ll be cleaning, which can heavily determine the products and tools you use. Thankfully a lot of them are versatile and can be used both indoors and outdoors! Just remember to make a list of essential tools and add on to it depending on the space you’ll be cleaning!
