As any smoker (or non-smoker) knows, cigarette smoke is one of the most stubborn odors to remove from a house. Especially to non-smokers, even the slightest hint of a lit cigarette can be overwhelming; but take a house or business where smoking takes place regularly and junk removal specialists say you are sure to have an area where the air almost seems thick because of the odor. Even if you’re a smoker, you probably don’t want your home to smell like a giant ashtray. But how can you get rid of the smell? Here are some tips offered by junk removal professionals!

Junk Removal Tip #1: Smoke ‘em if ya got ‘em…outside.

Making the decision to only smoke outside can be a tough transition, but junk removal experts say if you truly want a home or business that doesn’t even have the slightest hint of cigarettes, that’s the absolute best way to ensure you have a clean-smelling home. However, make sure not to smoke around open doors or windows, or else the smoke can waft into your home accidentally.

Junk Removal Tip #2: The Smoker’s Lounge

Many homeowners and business owners dedicate one area of their home or business where they can light up. Junk removal agents say designating one particular space not only saves the rest of your home from the long-standing wrath of cigarette smoke, but it also ensures that only those items in that particular room are affected, thus if you ever want to get rid of the smell, you have fewer items that may need professional cleaning or a junk removal crew to remove altogether to eliminate the smell.

Junk Removal Tip #3: Air Purifiers

Air purifiers are good to have in your home anyway, regardless of if you smoke or not, according to junk removal practitioners. However, air purifiers only work (unless you have a lot of money to invest in a very expensive unit) in the area they are located. With that said, it’s helpful to see the paragraph above and add an air purifier to that advice.

The many wonders of vinegar

by on April 23, 2012

Junk removal specialists say vinegar is a common household item and there is likely to be a bottle lying around your home somewhere, even if you didn’t know it was there. Most people buy vinegar for one specific purpose but don’t need a whole lot of it, thus creating a huge amount of leftover vinegar with no purpose. So, what can you do with all that leftover vinegar? Turns out, quite a bit according to Toronto junk removal experts!

Here are some great ways Toronto junk removal experts say you can utilize your extra vinegar and get some cleaning done at the same time!

Got the washing machine blues? Add two cups of white vinegar to a normal cycle set to warm. In order to get the full cleaning effect, make sure you do not have clothes in the washer. Junk removal agents say this will get rid of any stale water smells and help eliminate the crud that has built up throughout many washes.

Looking for an all-natural way to clean your rusty, lime-crusted tea pots or stained coffee pots? Pull out that bottle of vinegar and pour a half a cup into the tea kettle or coffee pot along with a healthy dose of hot water. Junk removal specialists say you should allow the mixture to do its magic for a half day then brush out any deposits that have come loose and rinse thoroughly with water.

If it’s good enough for your coffee pot, then surely vinegar is good enough to eliminate those tough stains in your bathtub, washbasin or sink. Add some cooking salt to the mixture and scrub onto the offending surface and watch stains disappear!

Next time you are looking for a more au natural method to do some basic house cleaning, Toronto junk removal technicians recommend just putting your trust in the tried and true method of vinegar!
