Making Moving Easier

I still remember the first time I decided to move my business. I had a small masonry company at the time, and we didn't think that it would be that hard to load everything into a few trucks. A few weeks later, we found ourselves struggling to maintain our business, clean up our old location, and get set up in our new place. Although I have owned several businesses over the years, moving an entire company is never easy. I decided to dedicate this website to helping other small business owners like myself, so that you don't have to endure the same hassles that I did. I hope that you find the information that you need, and that your next move can be successful.

3 Tips for Busting Dust in Your Home

If your busy schedule makes it difficult or impossible to maintain an ideally clean home, you may assume that professional house cleaning is the only logical answer to your problem. But while it may in fact make good sense to hire a maid service for periodic top to bottom cleanings, you can also make your life between those cleanings more enjoyable by keeping household dust to a minimum. Get more information about your options; here are three handy dust-busting strategies to consider.

1. Smart Closet Management

Closets are veritable dust storehouses. These enclosed spaces naturally attract and concentrate concentrations of dusty matter, especially when they're stacked full of old clothes and other objects that block housekeepers' access. If you move everything out of the closet floor, you may be shocked to see thick patches of dust on the carpet. After performing a thorough vacuuming and perhaps a carpet shampoo, rearrange those objects so they line the closet walls, leaving the main floor area open to routine vacuuming going forward.

The clothes in your closet are also a haven for dust particles. Do you have racks full of old clothing lining the space? Those jackets, coats, shirts and other articles of clothing have probably gathered a fine patina of dust while also shedding their share of fibers; and every time you enter your closet or move clothes around, some of that debris is kicked up into your nostrils. Give serious though to donating or dumping those long-abandoned clothes to reduce your closet dust headaches.

2. Regular HVAC Maintenance

Central air conditioning systems can do a wonderful job of circulating fresh, clean air through your home, or they can contribute to a dusty, allergen-infested atmosphere. The key lies in how effectively they filter dust out of the air before pumping that air into your various rooms. Air filters aren't immortal; once they clog up with enough dust, they stop moving air efficiently, and the air they do move isn't something you want to be breathing. Inspect your air filters about once a month (or even more frequently in the winter and summer months), replacing them if they look brown or gray from dirt. 

It's also possible that your air conditioner ducts are to blame for your dust problem. Leaky ducts fail to maintain the "closed loop" of clean air within the system. the leaks or gaps cause the ducts to suck dirty outside air in from within the walls or even from outdoors. Have your HVAC service tech examine and fix those leaky ducts so you can breathe dust-free air again.

3. Good Bedsheet Hygiene

Your bedding is one of the most dust-prone places in your entire home. That's because most of that dust is actually dead skin cells that have sloughed away from your body as you sleep. This not only causes an invisible mountain of dust to collect right where you sleep, but it also provides food for armies of dust mites, which in turn can feed allergies.

As a general rule, change and wash your bedding once a week. You can leave the actual laundry to your maid service if you like, but see to it personally that those sheets and pillowcases get replaced regularly. You don't necessarily have to take delicate fabrics to the dry cleaner every time; simply shake or beat them until they're dust free. Your sinuses will thank you for it.

These easy tips can literally have you breathing a lot more easily when it comes to busting that household dust. You can ultimately take care of this nagging issue yourself and let a local maid service handle the bigger chores.
