Take Advantage Of The Janitorial Distributors In Your Area

By Annabelle Holman


As a cleaning professional, whether you have been doing this for a long time or just getting started, you know the need for various pieces of equipment and supplies. These can not be purchased from a grocery store and an online store for these is just not the same as a store you can walk into. That is one of the reasons for janitorial distributors and they offer many products and services.

These distributors will have items from all of the major manufacturers on their shelves. This is beneficial as you are not forced to deal with only one brand of everything. Comparison as well as all of the information needed to identify the good from the bad will help you know what is available. Better still, what is just right for your tasks.

The many floor machines are usually setting there and are able to be looked at, tried out and instructed on. Doing the comparing of the features and availability will assist you in knowing which is the best one for your firm. They can be used, within the shop usually in the back, and this will further cement your decision. A quick class can be given by these employees and it may open options you had not thought about.

Whether you are looking for floor scrubbers, auto scrubbers or even carpet cleaners, they are all there. This may not be a service you offer your clients but this is also a good stream of income with a little training. The information, training and all of the chemicals can be obtained from these professionals and a new department can make you more money and a better reputation.

Vacuum cleaners also come in many shapes and sizes. There are upright machine as well as back pack models. Bagged and non bagged as well as battery operated ones of many widths will assist in making your workers as flexible as possible. These can range from eight inches to 36 inches wide for all situations. Trying them out will help you know which are the ones to model your cleaning processes around.

No cleaning is actually cleaning if there are not the appropriate chemicals involved. These and the information, in the form of MSDSs, are available here. A discussion about the relative value of each and every chemical you want can be undertaken. Learning is what these stores are all about as they assist all professionals do the jobs they need to get done.

All of the smaller tools and soft ware are something else that can be looked at. That includes putty knives as well as smaller buckets, squeegees and dusters. The many cloths can be looked at and compared. Terry cloth versus micro fiber is a good discussion to have and many will weigh in on the sponge controversy.

Taking advantage of the opportunity you have to get information, supplies and a great education is what awaits you when you decide to stop in at one of these locations. The best discussions you could have will be with people who may work for some company your firm is in competition with. A large amount of the learning will happen this way and everyone has a good time doing it.
