Chute cleaning Australia

Chute cleaning Australia Pty Ltd has developed a unique process developed for the cleaning and sanitising of garbage chutes. The process has been developed ‘in house’ and is the only one of this kind in Australia.

We have developed, due to the high demand, a system to clean and sanitise garbage chutes to eliminate odours, vermin, harmful bacteria and flammable grease. This is a unique technical process developed by Douglas Wright Pty Ltd. Our ‘Hydra jet’ system will thoroughly clean built up grime and sanitise the entire garbage chute system including the compactor rooms, bins and hopper doors.

Professional cleaning of the dirtiest part of the building is a duty of care from the management service or owners corporations. In this modern world of public liability claims it is paramount that proven procedures are in place to prevent infections and illness.

It has now become an OH & S issue along with Work Cover issues to ensure your bins and chutes are kept clean to comply with the rules and regulations of local Councils and the Environment Protection Act. Council laws have changed and as of the 1st September 2004 no bins or chutes can emit any odours and it is the responsibility of the building, not the service provider contracted to cart your waste.

Garbage chutes are breading grounds for harmful bacteria and pathogens, some of these bacteria’s include Tuberculosis, Weils Disease from rodents, Salmonella, E Coli, Listeria and many more that develop quickly in discarded food and receptacles. Every time the chute door is opened these germs and bacteria become airborne. Cleaning of your chute is not only proving your commitment to providing a clean and safe building in terms of germs but also greatly lessens the risk of a fire generating from the garbage chute.
