Professional Janitorial Supply Distributors Help You Find The Best Stuff

By Leslie Ball


All of the materials needed, for a cleaning business or a facility managers cleaning crew, must be found somewhere. The appropriate stuff can not be adequately addressed by going to a grocery store or hardware shop. The right kind of tools, chemicals and cloths must be purchased from one of the local janitorial supply distributors.

When some people, maybe including yourself, are starting a new cleaning business, they might not know what they really need. Others have mentioned some things but it can still not make sense. By the simple expedient of entering one of these stores, you can find knowledgeable employees who can help you find out what you need and the correct one to have.

All of the small stuff, like dusters, some of them extendable and some curved into neat shapes for getting into small places, are on display. Cloths, like the old line terry cloth and the new micro fiber ones. There are other engineered fabrics that attract and hold onto dust better. You can learn about each one as you talk with the personnel who uses every one of them each day.

The chemicals that are available are some of those things that make you scratch your head. There are multiple use formulations, many of which may not work if not used properly. There are those solutions that are best used for one thing and not another, and those that require special knowledge before opening the bottle or can. Helping you reduce the number of chemicals will be part of these experts role as this saves you time, trouble, money and the environment.

All of the small tools, such as putty knives, brushes of various types, sizes and shapes and buckets that are clearly designed for something other that a standard mop, need an explanation. This can easily be obtained from the employees or some of the clients standing around the lobby. A simple squeegee may actually look ominous if looked at one way.

The floor machines, such as carpet cleaners, buffers and strippers as well as grout cleaners are there for you to inspect and try out. That does not even mention the vacuum cleaners that no cleaner will ever be without. All of the brands this particular store carries will be ready to look at, talk about and try out. The accessories that are available will be there also.

The best things about going into one of these locations is the help, information and a learning experience. This can come from the employees who are paid to be there and also from customers who like to share what they know. They will help you understand how to use some products and make recommendations about other things that might just work better.

You are asked to clean up the accounts you have and you perform those tasks to the best of your abilities. These distributor locations are asked to help you understand what you need and how you can better do you job. They do this task quite well also. What else the store can do for you is send you off, satisfied, with a cup of coffee and or a bag of popcorn.
