Our Chute Cleaning Process
At each trash chute within your building, one of our trained technicians will start by spraying the inside with a degreaser to break up any residue, followed by a top-to-bottom power wash to remove trash build-up and reduce odours within the chutes. Once the chute cleaning process is complete, each intake door will be wiped down with a stainless steel cleaner and microfiber cloth.
This process will also include cleaning the compactors at your system’s base. First, all electronic components will be covered to ensure overspray of water or cleaner does not damage them. Once this is taken care of, the technician will apply a degreaser to the inside of the compactor and follow it up with a thorough power wash, similar to how your chutes are cleaned.
Preparing for Chute Cleaning
It is recommended that your chute system and attached compactors be cleaned twice a year – roughly every six months. When it comes time to perform the service, each chute and compactor should be free of all trash and access to the chutes should be suspended for building occupants during the process. Our technicians will also require an active water supply to complete the cleaning, and the trash room should contain a functioning drainage system to handle water overflow without flooding.
