Trash Chute Cleaning

Trash chutes are a convenient part of many multi-story properties, but they can become one of the biggest sources of odor, bacteria buildup, and pest activity if they are not cleaned regularly. Over time, residue and waste buildup inside the chute can impact sanitation, air quality, and the overall experience of the building.
