Dust Pans

Keep your cleaning business in top shape with new dust pans

By Ben Hahn, Freelance Writer
Dust pans are a ubiquitous tool in the cleaning industry. If your cleaning business engages in jobs requiring use of the broom and dust pan, you know how useful these unappreciated tools can be. Dust pans come in all types and sizes to fit your needs and budget.

If you're looking for the cheapest option, the standard plastic and metal dust pan are your best bet. However, if you constantly rely on a dust pan and brush in your cleaning operations, look into advanced options like an electric or automatic dust pan to save on the toll of manual labor on your employees. Find vendors on the Internet offering both the prices and dust pan options that best fit your business needs:
  1. For jobs requiring constant use of a dustpan, look for a supplier selling a lobby dust pan or industrial dust pans.
  2. Save money and time and purchase cheap dustpans in bulk.
  3. Reduce manual labor and purchase an electric dustpan.

 

Buy a lobby dust pan and save your back

Lobby dustpans are useful cleaning tools, with a long handle making it easier for workers to sweep up without bending over. Lobby dust pans can also feature a door that opens and closes, to keep dust and dirt from escaping once you've swept it up.
Try: For a large selection of lobby dustpans, see NexTag.com. Their website allows you to easily compare multiple products at once, with product specifications, pictures, and pricing info, so you choose the dust pan that best suits your needs and budget.

Save when you buy dust pans in bulk

If you're going to be in the cleaning business for a while, it's always smart to think ahead and buy in bulk. Buying bulk dust pans will save you money in the long run as well as ensure that you'll have dust pans on stock for a long time to come, saving you extra shopping trips.
Try: Find the dust pan you like from Ace Hardware and request quote on a bulk purchase of any item. Buy cases of your standard dust pan from StorePulls.com, a provider of goods below wholesale price.

Save your back with an electric dustpan

If you're looking to save the trouble of bending over and sweeping dust and dirt into your dustpan, buy an electric model. These stationary vacuums recognized when dust is swept in front of them and suck it up without any added effort from your back.
Try: The Eye-Vac Pro is a leading electric dustpan product sold by many vendors. See R.E. Williams Contractor Inc. for one of the best deals on this product, or search the Internet for this dustpan to compare prices from other suppliers. For a cheaper option, buy the NuTone VacPan, an automatic dustpan inlet that installs in a cabinet toekick or baseboard.

 

  • If you find a certain dust pan model that particularly suits your needs, do an Internet search of the product name to find other suppliers selling that dustpan. Compare prices from various vendors to find the best deal.
