Is Dumpster Pad Cleaning Essential?

Dumpster Pad Before and After

Dumpsters Are Everywhere

Dumpsters are one of those unfortunate-but-completely-necessary aspects of a commercial property. Even if they’re tucked away at the far side of your lot, they can make their mark – and not in a good way. This is why dumpster pad cleaning is essential!

Odors from rotting garbage attract rodents, feral animals, and other critters looking for food scraps. Once inside your dumpster, the animals root through the debris and drag random trash out across your property creating a mess. They can also carry diseases!

Dumpster areas are known for attracting pests and insects that can carry disease. These factors can put the health of your employees and guests in danger. Also, dump trucks usually leave behind a combined mess of oil and fluid tracks.

Each trip out to the dumpster is an invitation for bacteria, germs, and parasites to hitch a ride back inside. As your employees make their way back into your building, they can carry these microscopic organisms back into your kitchen, store-room, and servings areas -embedding themselves into and across the flooring throughout your entire business. From there, the disease-carrying bacteria are transferred to other surfaces.

As an employer, you are responsible, and liable, in any case of a work-related injury. The business could end up paying for ambulance service, emergency room treatment, extended health care costs, occupational therapy, and rehabilitation for injuries related to a simple -and avoidable slip and fall accident.
