With the fast paced lives that we all lead today, it is hard to go green. In our blog today we will be going over some ways that you can go green effortlessly in your office.
• Commute to work. With the rise in gas prices, wouldn’t it be nice to save some green while going green. Try taking public transportation to work or even biking or carpooling.
• We all need that morning cup of coffee or smoothie in the morning to jump start our day. This time before you grab that plastic or throw away cup, think about getting yourself a reusable cup. They have so many to choose from these days, you are sure to find the right fit for you.
• Maybe put up a little green while going green. Get some small indoor plants. If you happen to have an office with a nice window put up some plants by the window and let the sun shine through. If you have a cubicle, then research plants that don’t need direct sunlight.
• Instead of rushing for the elevator, try taking the stairs. Doing this can not only increase your everyday energy consumption it is good exercise.
• A big difference you could make in the work place and save some green while doing it is printing less. Save money and trees while printing less. If you happen to print too many copies or make a mistake when printing make sure to have a recycling bin next to the printer.
• Always make it a practice of turning off the lights when no one is in the room. Turning off your computers in the office at night and the power strip, can save energy also.
• The restrooms are another place you can go green. By using one at a time towel dispensers it can cut down on the excess use and waste of paper towels.
At The Business Cleaning Company, we strive to go green not only in our own office but by helping our clients go green as well. TBCC can provide a variety of towel and soap dispensers to save our clients green and help them go green.

3 Ways Commercial Carpet Cleaners Work!
There are three methods most commonly used by commercial carpet cleaners. I am sure there are more, but the others I have seen are simply variations of the three we will talk about.
The first and most common method used by commercial carpet cleaners is extraction. This method can also be called hot water extraction or steam cleaning. This method sprays a low pressure mixture onto your carpet and the a wand extracts, or pulls back up the solution into a tank. Most people prefer a hot water extraction, that is the water is heated before it is used to clean your carpets.
The second method commonly used by commercial carpet cleaners is called bonnet cleaning. This is where a technician will pre-spray your carpets and then bring a low speed buffer and run this over your floors. This method works well on surface dirt, but cannot get deep down dirt and other foreign matter.
A third method used by commercial carpet cleaners is called dry cleaning. There is a manufacturer that calls their chemical H.O.S.T. You will probably hear people refer to this as the host method. The chemical is actually a damp powder that looks similar to wet saw dust. This is sprinkled over the carpet and allowed to set in for ten to fifteen minutes. Then it is vacuumed up. One of the only advantages to this method is drying time. It will typically take ten to fifteen minutes to dry after the powder is vacuumed up.

Going Green With Commercial Carpet Cleaning!
Various companies have different theories on how to do commercial carpet cleaning. However, it is good to take into consideration and search for a professional carpet cleaning company that employs greener routes. It is not difficult to find such a company, just look for the Business Cleaning Company, Inc.! Unlike most basic companies, the companies that use green products do not use synthetic products in cleaning. That is why you should search for a cleaning company that does not only aim to clean the carpet but also wishes to be eco- friendly.
The main reason why many professionals have switched to green commercial carpet cleaning is because of the health hazards that synthetic chemicals yield. On the other hand, you should do some research in identifying the right carpet cleaning company that goes green. As much as possible, you should directly ask the company if they are using cleaning chemicals that are environment friendly. Such chemicals are made from natural and organic materials such as citrus peel, natural enzymes, botanical extracts, vegetable fiber, cider vinegar, natural minerals, aloe, meadow foam seeds and many others.
The good thing about the green products that most professional carpet cleaning companies use is that they use cleaning bubbles to take the dirt out from the fibers of the carpet. Likewise, they use less water in cleaning which is why it dries in the soonest possible time. In this way, you can use the carpet sooner. Another good part of these green products is that it uses the natural resources while cleaning.
