Introduction
Dust accumulation in the hard to reach areas of a warehouse can be unsightly and in some cases, hazardous to your industrial space and crew. As time passes, dust builds up in the hard-to-reach areas of your warehouse, such as rafters, high beams, ledges and lights. If not done by a professional service, the high dusting required to clean these areas can present its own challenges and safety risks.
YORA Commercial Cleaning specializes in non-invasive high dusting services for Chicagoland businesses. Our experts will quickly remove dust and debris from elevated positions without the need to disrupt operations or move heavy equipment. YORA high dusting services account for environmental guidelines, avoiding any contamination caused by dust. With YORA as your warehouse cleaning partner, you and your staff can confidently continue warehouse operations in a clean and safe work environment.
Best-Practices For Keeping Healthcare Facility Flooring Clean
To ensure that high dusting in warehouse and industrial spaces is non-invasive, safe and effective, the YORA commercial cleaning team follows a specific set of guidelines and safety procedures.
Safety is our highest priority. OSHA-certified crew members use industry-compliant ladders, lifts, and extension poles, and wear personal protective equipment (PPE) when dusting. Though we typically schedule work on warehouse off-hours, work areas are still marked with cones or other markers to ensure safety. It’s also recommended to turn off any HVAC service in the building to avoid unwanted spreading.
Most commercial high dusting services will begin at the highest areas of the building, such as ceilings, rafters, beams, vents, lights, and sprinkler heads. It’s best to start with the top height and work downward, so as to avoid any repeated work from falling dust. Any dust or debris that does fall to the floor is immediately spot-checked so that it does not spread.
Specialized heavy-duty vacuums capture dust without spreading it. Most industrial vacuums can account for both dry and wet particulates. Our team will switch to microfiber cloth when working on areas with sensitive equipment like sprinkler heads, sensors, cameras, and lighting.
How often should you schedule a commercial high dusting service? For a large commercial warehouse, it is recommended that you schedule a high dusting service on a monthly or quarterly basis depending on how quickly dust accumulates in your space. Facilities dealing with food or hazardous materials may require this service more often, depending on local guidelines and compliance standards.
