Winter Cleaning -- the better time to clean

Clean, organize and let your house shine!

I think spring cleaning should officially be moved to winter -- after all, you're inside anyway, and everyone is getting nested into their favorite spots. Time to shake out the dust, de-clutter and clean! At All Star Chem Dry, we see cleaning as an opportunity to make your home or office sanitary, bright and smell great.

I love sunny days for cleaning, even if it's cold outside. It just gets me more energized, plus I can see what is back in those dark corners better.

My mother taught me to clean from the top down, so that you aren't pulling dust down on top of things you've already cleaned. So look up into corners and use an old t-shirt on a broom to sweep down dusty cobwebs and walls. If your window treatments are dusty, you can either take them down or dust them in place with the vacuum hose attachments.

For blinds, use one of our World Famous Dust Cloths to dust and clean in a snap. These washable dust cloths come in bright colors and are just tossed in the wash. Ask you technician for your free dust cloth during your next cleaning.

For stubborn stains on carpets, try our World Famous Spot Remover for water based stains. Right now, a two pack of the regular cleaner and the Grease and Oil Remover is available at The Home Depot. You get two for the price of one!

At only $4.97 for the pack, it's a great one-two punch on tracked in clay, grease or food spills. I always start with the basic cleaner first, then if that does not totally get it, try the Grease Remover.

That's actually how I found Chem-Dry -- a friend gave me a can of the Spot Remover and said "You need this!

I never thought I would end up owning my own Chem-Dry business and running it myself. But I love Chem-Dry for how well it cleans, and how safe it is. It never gives me a headache or causes allergic reactions.

Happy Cleaning!Call us for any stains you can't get out with the spotter, and for a whole house deep clean. We can take your oriental rugs to clean them safely, and get out pet urine. Freshen your upholstery and deep clean your mattresses -- you'll be glad you did!
