Why do I always enjoy watching these videos so much? I don't even really know! Because I DON'T have a cleaning business, I never did, and doing my household was always very challenging for me. Hmm, maybe there's one part of the puzzle. I have often punished and judged myself for not being able to keep my house clean and tidy, I've felt like a failure from time to time. And then there's you, the cleaning guru, symbolizing everything I wish I was when it comes to household organization. And you also make cleaning sound like something... Positive. Something honorable. You helped me get rid of my negative associations with cleaning. You completely embrace being a house cleaner whereas others often look down on it. This is the enlightenment that many people so desperately need! I know I needed it. I feel like a hero now every time I clean something. The first video I saw from you was the one about depression, with tips about where to start and such. I can say that after years of 'practice' I am now really on top of my household. I finally managed to clean the kitchen every day, vacuum regularly, do the laundry and the dishes etc. And I never thought I could. This makes me feel so powerful. So on top of my life. And aligned with what I want and need. It's interesting how much impact such things have. It's just a household one might say. But a household is something big. It's something honorable. And I am grateful for it. So yeah...! I guess that's one reason why I watch your vids!!! I don't wanna bombard you with compliments too much but I'm telling you THIS is definitely the good part of RUclips. THANK you so much for everythingggg!!!! :)
THANK YOU. This comment from you > makes my heart sing. You are a hero and you've helped me leave the world a cleaner place. Hats off to you my friend and here's a happy high five! 🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐
Wow ! How awesome that you were so enlightened by her videos. You are absolutely right. I have been a Cleaner for many many years. Starting at age 13. I am now 44. And it’s crazy how housekeepers have been looked down upon for so many years. But I never let that bother me. Because I’ve always felt like an accomplished champ every time I take something that is filthy and make it sparkle. I also battle the depression surrounding house cleaning that you mentioned. It’s very strange that I have cleaned for a living for so long , yet I have trouble cleaning my own house. I have too much clutter and I am overwhelmed. But Angela‘s video about depression recently helped me as well. I strangely just found that video about a week ago. Anyway, I’m so glad that you feel so powerful and happy after cleaning. It’s truly an art to make something dirty beautiful and clean again. I’m glad that it changed your perspective. Sorry if I have any punctuation or grammar errors . I have to talk text everything because I have carpal tunnel syndrome very badly. I hope you’re having a great day🤗
I love when the homeowner has a central vacuum! I’ve had one experience where it didn’t work well but the majority of the time they seem to work really well. And it eliminates most of the noise.
I clean houses and I agree to use the customers vacuum cleaner . Some have horrible vacuum cleaners others have great ones ! I prefer Shark . I will tell you one vacuum cleaner I can’t stand ! I don’t care if it cost over $3,000.00. The Rainbow ! I can’t stand it !
I like the rainbows theory but i hated filling up the water tank every time. It was aggravating. I like you can use it as an air filtration system too though. Its neat but not easy to use when moving from place to place.
Wow, I would be embarrassed in myself if I needed to use a customers vacuum when I know my vaccums do a guaranteed better job, have more suction, can reach vents, & can do an overall better job instead of using their vacuum that clogs every 10 seconds.
As a business owner you get to decide what vacuum set up is right for you. Since covid, more professional cleaners are using homeowners vacuums to prevent cross-contamination from house to house. And we do train them to do a 360 inspection of that vacuum after emptying it to maintain performance.
Okay so what vacuum do you use? Because mine at home barely makes a dent. You can see all of the stuff on the floor just shake on the carpet when I use it but it doesn't pick it up
Angela, thank you for your videos and your CLEAN communication ... (This is from another different video, I needed to find a spot to leave my gratitude) I just did your practice of, "I wish that didn't happen," "What do I wish happened" and "What are my options now." Big Gratitude from my heart thank you. You helped me set a boundary. SO APPRECIATED. Keep going. We need you. Big Love. Thank you. I'll keep going too.
Great job cleaning the house. A lot of gunk collected in that dyson. Unfortunatley quite a bit of the fine dust escapes back into the room just ast you are about to empty the bin into the plastic bag in the kitchen. At 5:18 a cloud of dust is released. This fine dust is the most problematic to inhale, and also the hardest to clean, as it is light and settles on shelves doorframes etc. May I suggest dumping the content into at plastic bag OUTSIDE, before dumping it in the trash can outside. I would not dare to open that "can of worms" inside. One drawback of bagless vacuums is, one must be mindful when emptying the bin as to not spread fine dust. Doing this outside is a good routine. Cleaning is hard work. Best not to nullify any of it by spilling dust back inside. Love your content.😀I would love to se more of your vacuuming routine.
It's a good practice to bring your own mop to maintain hygiene standards and make sure the high quality of your cleaning job. Using a client's mop may risk cross-contamination between different spaces
Continuing my train of thought from my comment on the robotic vacuum video: I grew up in a household that farmed their cleaning out to professionals. Some used their own vacuums and a few used our Kirby, which I'll add is a more modern model that accepts HEPA bags. I personally have always sworn by direct-air uprights for carpet cleaning; namely Kirbys for residential use and the Sanitaire Tradition series for commercial use. Both machines wear like iron and the combination of massive airflow and aggressive agitation in both machines makes for unparalleled carpet deep cleaning. Recently, I tore down and rebuilt a Windsor Sensor XP12, which is the commercial grade version of the SEBO Automatic X4. According to the research I did while it was on my bench, the tool-free breakdown of it is a major selling point for cleaning services. Suction and airflow numbers seem to be about average; on par with Dyson's top performing model but in my own tests I've found the SEBO had an edge over the Dyson in that it has much more aggressive carpet agitation. As for the bagged vs. bagless debate, I (an allergy sufferer) would never let a bagless machine into my house, especially not knowing how well the filters have been maintained, since clean filters are critical to the performance and fine particle containment of a bagless machine. And with "disposable" vacuums (and Shark is especially guilty of this) you'll often find hidden filters, under covers that are either unlabeled or labeled in a way that most people wouldn't notice. I'd personally much rather pay $25 for a pack of bags that will last me a year then change my pre-and post-motor filters every 3-5 years than have a machine that I don't have to buy bags for but spend that same $25 on filters that only last 3-6 months. Now I do understand the theory behind using a bagless vacuum in a cleaning service application but the reality of it is that unless you're pulling those filters out between each house and shaking them out, it's no different from carrying a bagged vacuum from house to house
Fascinating breakdown. Thanks so much for sharing this. The bag/bagless debate has been a big one for professional cleaners for years, and as we become more conscious of cross-contamination we are giving vacuums a closer look. Should we tote them in and out of people's homes? Should we change the bags between each customer's homes, should we wipe down the exterior and floor plate between homes?
@@AskAngelaBrown my opinion from a technician’s point of view is that a clean vacuum is ALWAYS more professional-looking than one that looks like it’s obviously seen a lot of use. That said, a vacuum could look like a million bucks on the outside but have not been maintained at all outside of that. Or as I often see with Sanitaire uprights used in commercial settings for 30+ years, look like they’re two inches from death cosmetically but be otherwise well taken care of. I personally think that if you’re using a bagged vacuum with a sealed filtration system (and that’s important to look for because an vacuum with an unsealed system is almost as bad as a vacuum without any filters at all) that’s been maintained as directed in the instruction manual, changing the bag between every house is a bit excessive. However, it would be a good idea to change the bag and inspect your pre-and post-motor filters before going into an allergy sufferer’s house or when going from a pet owner’s house to a pet-free house, or if you notice any strange odors coming from the vacuum
That is an interesting way to look at it. No one has really brought that up around here where I live. But I really mainly do construction cleanup. All of my residential houses burned down in 2016 during the wildfires. Back in their lovely days before Covid. But the homes I did clean before the wildfires did have their own vacuums. And it was so handy.
Angela, I'm so glad you advise the cleaner should use the client's vacuum. It makes perfect sense, it will help prevent cross contamination especially these days.
So many houses these days don’t have wall to wall carpet, it’s mostly hard surface with area rugs. I love that, it’s so much easier to clean and you know it’s clean !!! I love the newer cordless vacuums, they are great for hard surface floors, under furniture, area rugs, window sills, up high areas and light weight enough to carry up and down 3 floors ! They disassemble and can be washed out, which is amazing to me, plus no fighting with cords or searching for plugs ❤ I find it crazy that so many multi million dollar homes with multiple levels have one crappy little vacuum 🙄 And when designing these extravagant, fancy homes, they put no thought into how things will get cleaned and the time it takes to do it 😏 Love love love your channel !!!!
My husband used a zoom when he was working at Nordstrom....we loved it so much,we bought one!! This is the best out there! It's so lightweight does a phenomenal job...and I've used more than a few...dyson,shark,kirby,bissel,dirt devil and more I can't recall off the top of my head.
Working where I do (vacuum center) fix repair sell anything to do with them. We recommend canister for hardfloors upright for carpet. And always use a bagged vacuum they filter better and they last longer.
Thanks for the tips and the feedback. We got away from bagged vacuums years ago in the professional space because if we are not using the customer's vacuum we need to clean and sanitize the vacuum between each use - which can in many cases be two to three times per day. And though a bag may not be full, dragging a vacuum from one house to the next with existing vacuum dust, and pet dander from the last home was never appealing to the new customer.
There are house cleaners that prefer to use their own vacuums. Some homes have outdated or very heavy vacuums. And they like their vacuum and don’t want to buy a new one. I also don’t want to take a chance on breaking their expensive vacuum. I have a cordless stick vacuum that I use when I clean homes. It’s light, with lots of my attachments makes my job easier and I don’t have to worry about breaking theirs.
I also clean a house that has a very old and heavy vacuum and he has old, thick, high carpet through his home. It was back breaking to run the vacuum. He also told me his old house cleaner broke his other vacuum. I use mine now and it’s so much easier to push and carry it up the stairs.
I had a client whose vacuum attachment was apparently cracked. I was completely unaware of it until they demanded I buy them a new vac. I did so that my republican would get trashed. After replacing their Kenmore I fired them. Been carrying my own vac since.
I know not everyone will not be able to do this but owning 3 or 4 vaccums has worked great for me. I own 4 shark vaccums and swap them around, two each day. I like sharks because all their filters are machine washable (hello Covid-19). I just come home empty my vaccums, wash the tank and dump all filters with tide, bleach and hot water in the washing machine then air dry, that's it, pretty simple, and take the other two vaccums I already have cleaned and air dried a day before. I spray the roller of the vaccum with microban 24 or lysol spray. You can buy refurbished vaccums for your business at Mercari or OfferUp, pretty cheap and I just take them to maintenance to a local vaccum store.
Oreck commercial is my go to in my business. we completely disinfect and sanitize our vacuums every single time we leave somebody’s house. Even the cord is wiped down and sanitized bags are clean and changed. I buy the vacuum bags in bulk and it only runs me about $.75 a bag. Almost 95% of the customers that I have encountered have crappy vacuums and they do not do a good job and that reflects on me and my business. But that’s just my preference in my two cents
Thank you for this video. I’ve been really searching for the right vacuum for me for weeks now. I know what I want but have been hesitating because of its cost. Knowing that at some point something will happen to it and then I’m on the hunt again. I’m a very small house cleaning company and having to buy a vacuum even once a year is an expense I don’t look forward to. You just saved me about 400.00
Hi. In that particular video, these are the vacuums I recommended (paid links) : BISSELL Zing Lightweight, Bagless Canister Vacuum, 2156A - amzn.to/3erEFes ProTeam Backpack Vacuums - amzn.to/40tB6eI BISSELL CleanView Compact Upright Vacuum - amzn.to/40aOQeI Shark SV1106 Navigator Freestyle Bagless Cordless Stick Vacuum - amzn.to/3ngkNE0 Vacuum Cleaner Bissel Upright Powerforce Pet Hair Bagless Allergy - amzn.to/2z1x7yx Or, in my store, I have several vacuums as well. You can have a look and see if any are a fit. You can find it here (paid links): www.amazon.com/shop/angelabrown Hope this helps. Thanks so much for watching! :)
I clean at a manufacturing facility where we have 2 vacuums. There's one that stays in the supervisors office and it only gets used there because there's oil and grease they use during the manufacturing process that gets all over the wheels it's so messy I carry it from rug to rug so I don't have to mop as much. Sometimes the sweeper breaks and the boss swaps it out with a working one. Any vacuums he relocates from there get new wheels because they get so dirty. I have changed the wheels myself also and we sometimes replace them on the mop bucket because they eventually don't move. It's a really good contract so we don't mind replacing wheels all the time.
Yowser, that sounds like a lot of extra work and I love that you've got a working system that you've all agreed to. Thanks for sharing this. I love that you shared something traditionally different from the status quo based on the situation you're in. 😍
For folks that are trying to put less in the landfill: the contents of regular vacuum cleaners (i.e. not construction site clean up) is great for your compost heap. If there's pet hair in there, even better as its nitrogen-rich. I empty my cleaners either over a container that I gather compost material in the garage in inclement weather, or directly over the compost heap. I wouldn't do it indoors as I like to knock as much dust off the filter as I can. Having said that, I need to vacuum more often - watching your videos is getting me motivated to do better ;o)
I'm a house keeper, I often use the home owners vacuum, but my shoulder is killing me. Would t it be wise for my body to get my own canister or backpack vacuum? I understand the germ issue and maintenance, but I need something efficient and less hard on my body.
The shoulder pain is most likely your dominant arm and the pain comes from cleaning repetition which is why you're feeling it when you vacuum or clean mirrors or wipe vanities or any big movements. Your best friend will be a set of stretch bands. Here is the paid link amzn.to/3lveF6o so you can see what they look like. Keep a set in your car, and a set next to the TV and another set next to your home computer. When you're a passenger in the car, watching TV or at your computer watching RUclips, use the bands to strengthen the muscles in your arms and back that support your shoulder. Watch a few RUclips videos on physical therapy for shoulder pain for proper techniques. It will help your shoulder heal and hopefully prevent the future need for shoulder replacement.
Hi Angela, I am not a housekeeper but I love cleaning my house. I’ve had a house cleaner come in to help me at certain times. I never thought about another person’s house having pets and kids. I mean, it only makes sense for them to use my vacuum. I think the house cleaners should’ve asked to use mine. I love your channel because it’s very informative to me. You always provide me with great, professional tips. Thank you.
Thank you for the recommendations. I use a Miele vacuum. It's awesome for wood floors. Alright for carpets. I buy the bags from china. The real ones are crazy expensive.
I love the Miele vacuum. It's light and easy to carry, relatively speaking, better for stairs and easier to carry up and down stairs, it moves with you well, and as you said works on basically all surfaces. I can quickly transition between vacuuming a floor and a couch cushion in like 2 seconds...and in my experience they work well. Of course there are different models but, I prefer hauling my Miele around more than using a client's own vacuum even the latter sounds like less work...but then if the client's vacuum isn't that good, or its old and it breaks, or gets clogged or something, then everything ends up worse since now I have to fix that. If I just use my own, I know exactly what to expect :D and I know it'll be easier to use.
Great advice I do the same thing. I carry a shark lift away in the car and try not to use it. I like it because I have 3 sets of rollers and hepa filters for it that I can easily change out if need be. After use those rollers and filters go in a sealed bag which gets cleaned after a couple of days. I wait to clean because viruses are microscopic parasites they need a host to survive. Let them sit and wait before messing with it. Lol Those newer sharks with removable carpet and floor rollers are a dream to clean and incredibly light weight. I also talk new customers into buying one as well because of these features. Sorry for the rant. Lol again
I have a shark also an carry extra filters and roller in my car for easy clean. For the next clean. I wash the filters at the end of the day. With the rollers I have several clients in their 90th that vacuum broke there is no need for them to buy a new vacuum. Their are not vacuum. I have to change the filter and roller in the hall they both live in same building I wipe the machine down with a wipe.
A vacuum is like a pair of shoes. It depends on the user, their height, strength, the type of flooring being vacuumed. Type of soil you need to remove. Do you have a pet hair problem that needs extra vacuum features. I have two vacuums I use for my home. The Dyson amzn.to/3kmXbI1 for all regular cleaning. And a Eureka cordless amzn.to/3uxZ4q0 as a quick crumb/hair picker upper. I use the Dyson 2ce a week and the Eureka on the other days (sometimes twice a day in the kitchen.) Does that make sense?
Thank you for your suggestion😊 If you're interested in the vacuums I recommend, you can visit this page: www.amazon.com/shop/angelabrown/list/CPQ6V5M18KIX?ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_s_ofs_mixed_d
when I started my business 13 years ago, we brought our Dyson vacuum. I changed that policy, for just those reasons, nearly 8 years ago. But now I have to use there crappy Eureka. LOL
Cynthia Basso think of it as this There- the film was made over there Their- something that you don’t own such as- the plate is theirs They’re- they are Your- to Angela- this film is yours You’re- you are (you’re) able to film this My teacher has this on her wall The two girls are going to the party too Two- the number 2 To- to someplace Too- too much of something. Tell me if this helps
Oh no, I'm just seeing this for the first time. I'm sorry for the delay. It depends on your personal preference. I use a regular vacuum for picking up crumbs at least 4 times a week at home on my personal floors, and I use a dry dust mop the other 3-4 days. I hit the floors at least once a day to pick up dust, hair etc. And then damp mop the floors 3-4 times a week based on how bad they are. (We have a lot of foot traffic with employees and independent contractors coming in and out every day.)
I would just like to say that $200 is a lot for a vacuum. Some people live on a fixed income and do need the help with cleaning, especially as they get older, but cannot come up with $200. I was raised with plenty of pets and a household of 13 people and we used a broom and dustpan on the hardwood/tile and a manual sweeper (think what they use in restaurants between customers) that cost $25 for my grandma to replace if needed. The problem with modern society is people think things like electric vacuums are necessities and they absolutely are not. It just means people have to work a little harder is all.
We have a few that are tried and proven in our Amazon store amazon.com/shop/angelabrown Note: there are a lot of good vacuums on the market. The goal is to find one that resonates with you, is easy to use and has the attachments you need.
PERFECT TIMING! 😁 My vacuum just broke☹️.. the hose broke😩.. #Hoover ...I had it for about 3 months,, now I have to take it back .... or can I reattached it ? 🤷🏽♀️
The ProTeam Back Pack Vacuums (here is the paid link: amzn.to/3NgV4Dz) are really popular unless you're using a riding vacuum and then this one gets most votes from the pros. www.toolots.com/floor-sweeper-aokeqi-os-v2-01.html
I LOVE the Rainbow vacuums - they are just not very user friendly for professional use, carrying out canisters of water, and where to empty them? And how to take them up a flight of stairs once they have water in them...for homeowner use, yes they are fantastic.
True I have had to use my own rainbow before in some cleaning jobs what I do which has so far been ok with homeowners is pouring it in the back yard in a corner through a sifter so only water goes out none of the other stuff. But yes there’s definitely easier ones to take up and down stairs. When I do housekeeping my boss has a Riccar hepa bagged canister with additional hepa filtration. The vacuum I like very little is shark they are just not easy on hose use falls back so easily. Have you tried one?
Many do. And it's time for them to upgrade to a vacuum that is more user friendly so they themselves will be more inspired to clean between professional cleaning visits.
What vacuum would you recommend for cleaning a quarry office with lots of heavy white/ construction dust and small rocks on floors. What would be the best way to clean floors (PVC tile)? Vacuum and mop (I am looking to buy a commercial floor scrubber). What would you recommend?
Hi Marta, I have a few questions about the building and a few opinions. But my specialty really houses, not commercial cleaning. My friend Steve Hanson bit.ly/JanitorialStore has run a janitorial store for 30+ years and knows all about construction office flooring, vacuums, burnishers, and pads. He would be a better person to lead you in the right direction.
It's crucial to discuss different options with the customer. It shows that we as house cleaners value their input and want to find the most suitable solution together. It's about efficiency and delivering the best results, not about being unprofessional
Greetings Angela Brown. My name is Grant from Benin city Nigeria. I am subscribed to your RUclips page. Wanted to find out if your company runs trainings for new cleaning business set up?
Hi Grant, yes we do. You can learn more about our programs at savvycleaner.com/join we have a membership program where we walk you through every step of your cleaning journey. That page also has a FAQ. Welcome to the wonderful world of cleaning. :-)
The homeowner. That falls under normal wear and tear. It is also the reason we carry a back up vacuum in the car that has been cleaned and sanitized and is available for backup situations.
I had a homeowner demand I replace their entire Kenmore because unbeknownst to me an attachment was cracked and they couldn't get a replacement for it. To save my reputation I bought them the vac and fired them afterward. To assume all clients won't make you responsible is naive. I carry my own vac for this reason.
Vacuums are a huge part of cleaning. You couldn't really clean without them, right? Here are a pile of vacuums shows giving house cleaners, home owners & maids tips & strategies on the best vacuums to use when cleaning client's & their own homes. ruclips.net/p/PLh1fKdNH3piSmzClHa1JMxS1pNi4GzuSm
You explain that your company uses the client's vacuums to prevent cross-contamination from house to house. If the customer doesn't have a good working vacuum, recommend one. They are a few hundred dollars (the cost of one cleaning) and then they'll own a good vacuum for life. And you can remind them that you'll clean it out after each use and do a 360 inspection on it to make sure it's in complete working order when you leave.
I'm sorry. Vacuums that are made in the 90s and early 2000s are AMAZING. Suction is the least important thing in a vacuum. You need agitation and airflow 90s vacuum (Ex Hoover Elites) Have very poor suction, but they have the airflow of a hurricane or Kirby! I would use an older vacuum over any of today's crap. All as that you can tell them is, buy a new belt and roller. and have a new bag in it when we arrive. that will clean carpets better than your DC41 you own!
I dont its preferable in that situation..i am struggling to do the same ...come to think of that majority kf the homeowners have old type of vacuum which is heavier that a pail of water..i could nt even make it fast to the point somehow annoying...😡
Thanks for noticing. Some questions beg other questions, not an answer. The secret to getting a specific question answered is to ask a specific question.
Knowing what to look for based on your specific needs is the answer. There is no one-size-fits-all answer. I could recommend a brand, and then someone wouldn't have the strength to push it, or they would have pets, or need one that is cordless... Everybody's needs are different - which is why there are so many vacuum varieties on the market.
Watching you empty that Dyson with your hands Yuck it's one reason i prefer people to purchase Miele machines with the throw away bag it's so much more cleaner not having to play with the bag less canisters that don't empty without help..
LOL. It's funny you mentioned that. The video we created was for homeowners who typically don't wear personal protective equipment when vacuuming their own homes. It grossed me out so bad to do it because I was wearing shoe covers and gloves and the camera guy is like "homeowners don't wear either of those when cleaning their own homes. Make it look easy enough a homeowner can do it. Everytime I see that clip I'm grossed out. "Ewww." Good catch. :-)
Why do I always enjoy watching these videos so much? I don't even really know! Because I DON'T have a cleaning business, I never did, and doing my household was always very challenging for me. Hmm, maybe there's one part of the puzzle. I have often punished and judged myself for not being able to keep my house clean and tidy, I've felt like a failure from time to time.

You helped me get rid of my negative associations with cleaning. You completely embrace being a house cleaner whereas others often look down on it. This is the enlightenment that many people so desperately need! I know I needed it. I feel like a hero now every time I clean something. The first video I saw from you was the one about depression, with tips about where to start and such. I can say that after years of 'practice' I am now really on top of my household. I finally managed to clean the kitchen every day, vacuum regularly, do the laundry and the dishes etc. And I never thought I could. This makes me feel so powerful. So on top of my life. And aligned with what I want and need. It's interesting how much impact such things have. It's just a household one might say. But a household is something big. It's something honorable. And I am grateful for it. So yeah...! I guess that's one reason why I watch your vids!!! I don't wanna bombard you with compliments too much but I'm telling you THIS is definitely the good part of RUclips. THANK you so much for everythingggg!!!! :)

Interesting I was considering a Rainbow. Glad to hear this.
I've owned a rainbow since 1981 and it's still works great! Because it's filter is water nothing escape back into the air! Why don't you like them???
I like the rainbows theory but i hated filling up the water tank every time. It was aggravating. I like you can use it as an air filtration system too though. Its neat but not easy to use when moving from place to place.
I hate the rainbows as well.
I Would love a review of the best vacuums for homes with pets. You are always so thorough. Love your channel!
Zero g has powered stair /furniture tool. Also I recommend Sebo or Miele.

Angela, thank you for your videos and your CLEAN communication ... (This is from another different video, I needed to find a spot to leave my gratitude) I just did your practice of, "I wish that didn't happen," "What do I wish happened" and "What are my options now." Big Gratitude from my heart thank you. You helped me set a boundary. SO APPRECIATED. Keep going. We need you. Big Love. Thank you. I'll keep going too.
I love this! This makes me happy, so glad to know that the video was helpful. Keep it up, you got this! Sending hugs.
Great job cleaning the house. A lot of gunk collected in that dyson. Unfortunatley quite a bit of the fine dust escapes back into the room just ast you are about to empty the bin into the plastic bag in the kitchen. At 5:18 a cloud of dust is released. This fine dust is the most problematic to inhale, and also the hardest to clean, as it is light and settles on shelves doorframes etc. May I suggest dumping the content into at plastic bag OUTSIDE, before dumping it in the trash can outside. I would not dare to open that "can of worms" inside. One drawback of bagless vacuums is, one must be mindful when emptying the bin as to not spread fine dust. Doing this outside is a good routine. Cleaning is hard work. Best not to nullify any of it by spilling dust back inside. Love your content.😀I would love to se more of your vacuuming routine.
Thank you for your feedback!
Maybe it's a dumb question, but what about the mop ? Should we use the client's mop or should we bring our own ?
It's a good practice to bring your own mop to maintain hygiene standards and make sure the high quality of your cleaning job. Using a client's mop may risk cross-contamination between different spaces
Continuing my train of thought from my comment on the robotic vacuum video: I grew up in a household that farmed their cleaning out to professionals. Some used their own vacuums and a few used our Kirby, which I'll add is a more modern model that accepts HEPA bags. I personally have always sworn by direct-air uprights for carpet cleaning; namely Kirbys for residential use and the Sanitaire Tradition series for commercial use. Both machines wear like iron and the combination of massive airflow and aggressive agitation in both machines makes for unparalleled carpet deep cleaning.
Recently, I tore down and rebuilt a Windsor Sensor XP12, which is the commercial grade version of the SEBO Automatic X4. According to the research I did while it was on my bench, the tool-free breakdown of it is a major selling point for cleaning services. Suction and airflow numbers seem to be about average; on par with Dyson's top performing model but in my own tests I've found the SEBO had an edge over the Dyson in that it has much more aggressive carpet agitation.
As for the bagged vs. bagless debate, I (an allergy sufferer) would never let a bagless machine into my house, especially not knowing how well the filters have been maintained, since clean filters are critical to the performance and fine particle containment of a bagless machine. And with "disposable" vacuums (and Shark is especially guilty of this) you'll often find hidden filters, under covers that are either unlabeled or labeled in a way that most people wouldn't notice. I'd personally much rather pay $25 for a pack of bags that will last me a year then change my pre-and post-motor filters every 3-5 years than have a machine that I don't have to buy bags for but spend that same $25 on filters that only last 3-6 months. Now I do understand the theory behind using a bagless vacuum in a cleaning service application but the reality of it is that unless you're pulling those filters out between each house and shaking them out, it's no different from carrying a bagged vacuum from house to house
Fascinating breakdown. Thanks so much for sharing this. The bag/bagless debate has been a big one for professional cleaners for years, and as we become more conscious of cross-contamination we are giving vacuums a closer look. Should we tote them in and out of people's homes? Should we change the bags between each customer's homes, should we wipe down the exterior and floor plate between homes?
@@AskAngelaBrown my opinion from a technician’s point of view is that a clean vacuum is ALWAYS more professional-looking than one that looks like it’s obviously seen a lot of use. That said, a vacuum could look like a million bucks on the outside but have not been maintained at all outside of that. Or as I often see with Sanitaire uprights used in commercial settings for 30+ years, look like they’re two inches from death cosmetically but be otherwise well taken care of. I personally think that if you’re using a bagged vacuum with a sealed filtration system (and that’s important to look for because an vacuum with an unsealed system is almost as bad as a vacuum without any filters at all) that’s been maintained as directed in the instruction manual, changing the bag between every house is a bit excessive. However, it would be a good idea to change the bag and inspect your pre-and post-motor filters before going into an allergy sufferer’s house or when going from a pet owner’s house to a pet-free house, or if you notice any strange odors coming from the vacuum
That is an interesting way to look at it. No one has really brought that up around here where I live. But I really mainly do construction cleanup. All of my residential houses burned down in 2016 during the wildfires. Back in their lovely days before Covid. But the homes I did clean before the wildfires did have their own vacuums. And it was so handy.
Keep me posted and let me know which vacuum you end up going with and how you like it. I'm eager to hear what you land on. 👍
I already told my clients I will no longer provide the vaccum, brushes, sponges and rags to avoid cross contamination of Covid-19.
This is great! Thanks for watching the video.🙂
Angela, I'm so glad you advise the cleaner should use the client's vacuum. It makes perfect sense, it will help prevent cross contamination especially these days.
Thank you for sharing your feedback and thanks for watching the video.🙂
So many houses these days don’t have wall to wall carpet, it’s mostly hard surface with area rugs. I love that, it’s so much easier to clean and you know it’s clean !!! I love the newer cordless vacuums, they are great for hard surface floors, under furniture, area rugs, window sills, up high areas and light weight enough to carry up and down 3 floors ! They disassemble and can be washed out, which is amazing to me, plus no fighting with cords or searching for plugs ❤
I find it crazy that so many multi million dollar homes with multiple levels have one crappy little vacuum 🙄
And when designing these extravagant, fancy homes, they put no thought into how things will get cleaned and the time it takes to do it 😏
Love love love your channel !!!!
I love love love your comment. You’re right about home designs. 👍
My husband used a zoom when he was working at Nordstrom....we loved it so much,we bought one!! This is the best out there! It's so lightweight does a phenomenal job...and I've used more than a few...dyson,shark,kirby,bissel,dirt devil and more I can't recall off the top of my head.
That is awesome! Thanks for sharing and for watching the video. 😊
Is it an upright or canister? I like the canister type. Where do you buy them?
@@gerij777 I googled it. It's an upright that starts at $250
Working where I do (vacuum center) fix repair sell anything to do with them. We recommend canister for hardfloors upright for carpet. And always use a bagged vacuum they filter better and they last longer.
I appreciate you reaching out and sharing these great tips!
Thanks for the tips and the feedback. We got away from bagged vacuums years ago in the professional space because if we are not using the customer's vacuum we need to clean and sanitize the vacuum between each use - which can in many cases be two to three times per day. And though a bag may not be full, dragging a vacuum from one house to the next with existing vacuum dust, and pet dander from the last home was never appealing to the new customer.
There are house cleaners that prefer to use their own vacuums. Some homes have outdated or very heavy vacuums. And they like their vacuum and don’t want to buy a new one. I also don’t want to take a chance on breaking their expensive vacuum. I have a cordless stick vacuum that I use when I clean homes. It’s light, with lots of my attachments makes my job easier and I don’t have to worry about breaking theirs.
I also clean a house that has a very old and heavy vacuum and he has old, thick, high carpet through his home. It was back breaking to run the vacuum. He also told me his old house cleaner broke his other vacuum. I use mine now and it’s so much easier to push and carry it up the stairs.
Sometimes using the right vacuum is a matter of convenience. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
I agree I used my shark vacuum every time to cleaning customers house. Some of them the vacuum so heavy and old. I just can’t handle it.
I had a client whose vacuum attachment was apparently cracked. I was completely unaware of it until they demanded I buy them a new vac. I did so that my republican would get trashed. After replacing their Kenmore I fired them. Been carrying my own vac since.
I know not everyone will not be able to do this but owning 3 or 4 vaccums has worked great for me. I own 4 shark vaccums and swap them around, two each day. I like sharks because all their filters are machine washable (hello Covid-19). I just come home empty my vaccums, wash the tank and dump all filters with tide, bleach and hot water in the washing machine then air dry, that's it, pretty simple, and take the other two vaccums I already have cleaned and air dried a day before. I spray the roller of the vaccum with microban 24 or lysol spray. You can buy refurbished vaccums for your business at Mercari or OfferUp, pretty cheap and I just take them to maintenance to a local vaccum store.
This is an interesting formula. Thanks for sharing this with us. Continued success in your cleaning business. I love your innovation. :-)
Oreck commercial is my go to in my business. we completely disinfect and sanitize our vacuums every single time we leave somebody’s house. Even the cord is wiped down and sanitized bags are clean and changed. I buy the vacuum bags in bulk and it only runs me about $.75 a bag. Almost 95% of the customers that I have encountered have crappy vacuums and they do not do a good job and that reflects on me and my business. But that’s just my preference in my two cents
Thanks for sharing information on Oreck vacuums! 👍
Thank you for this video. I’ve been really searching for the right vacuum for me for weeks now. I know what I want but have been hesitating because of its cost. Knowing that at some point something will happen to it and then I’m on the hunt again. I’m a very small house cleaning company and having to buy a vacuum even once a year is an expense I don’t look forward to. You just saved me about 400.00
You are so welcome, glad it was helpful!
Which vacuum have u bought please?
What if the customer doesn't have one or doesn't want us to use their vacuum? Which vacuum do you recommend?
Hi. In that particular video, these are the vacuums I recommended (paid links) :
BISSELL Zing Lightweight, Bagless Canister Vacuum, 2156A - amzn.to/3erEFes
ProTeam Backpack Vacuums - amzn.to/40tB6eI
BISSELL CleanView Compact Upright Vacuum - amzn.to/40aOQeI
Shark SV1106 Navigator Freestyle Bagless Cordless Stick Vacuum - amzn.to/3ngkNE0
Vacuum Cleaner Bissel Upright Powerforce Pet Hair Bagless Allergy - amzn.to/2z1x7yx
Or, in my store, I have several vacuums as well. You can have a look and see if any are a fit. You can find it here (paid links): www.amazon.com/shop/angelabrown
Hope this helps. Thanks so much for watching! :)
I clean at a manufacturing facility where we have 2 vacuums. There's one that stays in the supervisors office and it only gets used there because there's oil and grease they use during the manufacturing process that gets all over the wheels it's so messy I carry it from rug to rug so I don't have to mop as much. Sometimes the sweeper breaks and the boss swaps it out with a working one. Any vacuums he relocates from there get new wheels because they get so dirty. I have changed the wheels myself also and we sometimes replace them on the mop bucket because they eventually don't move. It's a really good contract so we don't mind replacing wheels all the time.
Yowser, that sounds like a lot of extra work and I love that you've got a working system that you've all agreed to. Thanks for sharing this. I love that you shared something traditionally different from the status quo based on the situation you're in. 😍
For folks that are trying to put less in the landfill: the contents of regular vacuum cleaners (i.e. not construction site clean up) is great for your compost heap. If there's pet hair in there, even better as its nitrogen-rich. I empty my cleaners either over a container that I gather compost material in the garage in inclement weather, or directly over the compost heap. I wouldn't do it indoors as I like to knock as much dust off the filter as I can. Having said that, I need to vacuum more often - watching your videos is getting me motivated to do better ;o)
Great tip, thank you so much for sharing! 😊
Great video. Some clients I use their vacuum, others don't own one which is odd😆
Oh wow! Thanks for sharing.
I'm a house keeper, I often use the home owners vacuum, but my shoulder is killing me. Would t it be wise for my body to get my own canister or backpack vacuum? I understand the germ issue and maintenance, but I need something efficient and less hard on my body.
The shoulder pain is most likely your dominant arm and the pain comes from cleaning repetition which is why you're feeling it when you vacuum or clean mirrors or wipe vanities or any big movements. Your best friend will be a set of stretch bands. Here is the paid link amzn.to/3lveF6o so you can see what they look like. Keep a set in your car, and a set next to the TV and another set next to your home computer. When you're a passenger in the car, watching TV or at your computer watching RUclips, use the bands to strengthen the muscles in your arms and back that support your shoulder. Watch a few RUclips videos on physical therapy for shoulder pain for proper techniques. It will help your shoulder heal and hopefully prevent the future need for shoulder replacement.
Hi Angela, I am not a housekeeper but I love cleaning my house. I’ve had a house cleaner come in to help me at certain times. I never thought about another person’s house having pets and kids. I mean, it only makes sense for them to use my vacuum. I think the house cleaners should’ve asked to use mine. I love your channel because it’s very informative to me. You always provide me with great, professional tips. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing!! And thank you so much for watching the video. Sending hugs. 🤗
Thank you for the recommendations. I use a Miele vacuum. It's awesome for wood floors. Alright for carpets. I buy the bags from china. The real ones are crazy expensive.
You're welcome! Thanks for sharing the vacuum bag tip!
I love the Miele vacuum. It's light and easy to carry, relatively speaking, better for stairs and easier to carry up and down stairs, it moves with you well, and as you said works on basically all surfaces. I can quickly transition between vacuuming a floor and a couch cushion in like 2 seconds...and in my experience they work well. Of course there are different models but, I prefer hauling my Miele around more than using a client's own vacuum even the latter sounds like less work...but then if the client's vacuum isn't that good, or its old and it breaks, or gets clogged or something, then everything ends up worse since now I have to fix that. If I just use my own, I know exactly what to expect :D and I know it'll be easier to use.
Great advice I do the same thing. I carry a shark lift away in the car and try not to use it. I like it because I have 3 sets of rollers and hepa filters for it that I can easily change out if need be. After use those rollers and filters go in a sealed bag which gets cleaned after a couple of days. I wait to clean because viruses are microscopic parasites they need a host to survive. Let them sit and wait before messing with it. Lol Those newer sharks with removable carpet and floor rollers are a dream to clean and incredibly light weight. I also talk new customers into buying one as well because of these features. Sorry for the rant. Lol again
I have a shark also an carry extra filters and roller in my car for easy clean. For the next clean. I wash the filters at the end of the day. With the rollers I have several clients in their 90th that vacuum broke there is no need for them to buy a new vacuum. Their are not vacuum. I have to change the filter and roller in the hall they both live in same building I wipe the machine down with a wipe.
Thank you for your feedback and thanks for watching the video.🙂
Hello Ms. Angela,
What is the best vacuum for the homeowner to use?
Thanks!!
A vacuum is like a pair of shoes. It depends on the user, their height, strength, the type of flooring being vacuumed. Type of soil you need to remove. Do you have a pet hair problem that needs extra vacuum features. I have two vacuums I use for my home. The Dyson amzn.to/3kmXbI1 for all regular cleaning. And a Eureka cordless amzn.to/3uxZ4q0 as a quick crumb/hair picker upper. I use the Dyson 2ce a week and the Eureka on the other days (sometimes twice a day in the kitchen.) Does that make sense?
@@AskAngelaBrown yes makes sense!! Thank you!
Okay maybe the question should have been what is the best vacuum? My vacuum at home barely does its job
Thank you for your suggestion😊 If you're interested in the vacuums I recommend, you can visit this page: www.amazon.com/shop/angelabrown/list/CPQ6V5M18KIX?ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_s_ofs_mixed_d
when I started my business 13 years ago, we brought our Dyson vacuum. I changed that policy, for just those reasons, nearly 8 years ago. But now I have to use there crappy Eureka. LOL

Great video but why would you assume that if a bagless vacuum is empty when the cleaning team comes, that they didn't use it in the interim?
Often the homeowners will tell you if they didn't vacuum.
Hello! Question: whixh one is better a mop vacuum or a regular vacuum for hardwood floors?
Im between buying a crosswave or a shark vertex, my house is almost all hardwood floor. Not sure which one to buy
Oh no, I'm just seeing this for the first time. I'm sorry for the delay. It depends on your personal preference. I use a regular vacuum for picking up crumbs at least 4 times a week at home on my personal floors, and I use a dry dust mop the other 3-4 days. I hit the floors at least once a day to pick up dust, hair etc. And then damp mop the floors 3-4 times a week based on how bad they are. (We have a lot of foot traffic with employees and independent contractors coming in and out every day.)
I would just like to say that $200 is a lot for a vacuum. Some people live on a fixed income and do need the help with cleaning, especially as they get older, but cannot come up with $200. I was raised with plenty of pets and a household of 13 people and we used a broom and dustpan on the hardwood/tile and a manual sweeper (think what they use in restaurants between customers) that cost $25 for my grandma to replace if needed.
The problem with modern society is people think things like electric vacuums are necessities and they absolutely are not. It just means people have to work a little harder is all.
Thank you for taking the time to share your input.
Soo..what vacuum would u recommend customers get
We have a few that are tried and proven in our Amazon store amazon.com/shop/angelabrown Note: there are a lot of good vacuums on the market. The goal is to find one that resonates with you, is easy to use and has the attachments you need.
PERFECT TIMING! 😁 My vacuum just broke☹️.. the hose broke😩.. #Hoover ...I had it for about 3 months,, now I have to take it back .... or can I reattached it ? 🤷🏽♀️
Oh no! Not sure about reattaching, but maybe you can check the warranty. I hope that you are able to get it fixed or get a replacement.
How about commercial vacuums for commercial cleans, like businesses offices?
The ProTeam Back Pack Vacuums (here is the paid link: amzn.to/3NgV4Dz) are really popular unless you're using a riding vacuum and then this one gets most votes from the pros. www.toolots.com/floor-sweeper-aokeqi-os-v2-01.html
Very good information i rather use the homeowner or the clients vacuum. That will be better for i
Glad you liked it!😊
This needs an update. People are not as paranoid as they were before. Also most people don't want to buy a quality vacuum.
Thank you for sharing your perspective
Iv always used the clients vacuum and cleaning supplies, which is more convenient as I’m a non driver
Thank you for your feedback and thanks for watching the video.🙂
Also water filtration like rainbow does great
Thanks so much for sharing. 👍
I LOVE the Rainbow vacuums - they are just not very user friendly for professional use, carrying out canisters of water, and where to empty them? And how to take them up a flight of stairs once they have water in them...for homeowner use, yes they are fantastic.
True I have had to use my own rainbow before in some cleaning jobs what I do which has so far been ok with homeowners is pouring it in the back yard in a corner through a sifter so only water goes out none of the other stuff. But yes there’s definitely easier ones to take up and down stairs. When I do housekeeping my boss has a Riccar hepa bagged canister with additional hepa filtration. The vacuum I like very little is shark they are just not easy on hose use falls back so easily. Have you tried one?
How about when the customer has a very heavy vacuum?
Many do. And it's time for them to upgrade to a vacuum that is more user friendly so they themselves will be more inspired to clean between professional cleaning visits.
What vacuum would you recommend for cleaning a quarry office with lots of heavy white/ construction dust and small rocks on floors. What would be the best way to clean floors (PVC tile)? Vacuum and mop (I am looking to buy a commercial floor scrubber). What would you recommend?
Hi Marta, I have a few questions about the building and a few opinions. But my specialty really houses, not commercial cleaning. My friend Steve Hanson bit.ly/JanitorialStore has run a janitorial store for 30+ years and knows all about construction office flooring, vacuums, burnishers, and pads. He would be a better person to lead you in the right direction.
Oreck orbiter is an excellent mini scrubber 13 inch. You can bonnet carpet or scrub tile and hard floors as well; Price around 300 bucks.
How did you answer the question? Some clients don’t have a vacuum..
What if they don't have one. Lots of students don't etc
Students don't usually have vacuums in their dorms. Maybe the janitor may heva one or you might have to bring one with you.
@@AskAngelaBrown ok thank you Angela..I can ask the janitor but I was wondering if I get one as back up any suggestions? Ty
How to convince customer to use their vaccum ? Wil lthey think we are unprofessional?
It's crucial to discuss different options with the customer. It shows that we as house cleaners value their input and want to find the most suitable solution together. It's about efficiency and delivering the best results, not about being unprofessional
@AskAngelaBrown that's great and thanks for replying 😀 big fan of yours
Greetings Angela Brown. My name is Grant from Benin city Nigeria. I am subscribed to your RUclips page. Wanted to find out if your company runs trainings for new cleaning business set up?
Hi Grant, yes we do. You can learn more about our programs at savvycleaner.com/join we have a membership program where we walk you through every step of your cleaning journey. That page also has a FAQ. Welcome to the wonderful world of cleaning. :-)
what if you using the home owners vacuum and it stops working while you are using it who pays for the repair cost
The homeowner. That falls under normal wear and tear. It is also the reason we carry a back up vacuum in the car that has been cleaned and sanitized and is available for backup situations.
I had a homeowner demand I replace their entire Kenmore because unbeknownst to me an attachment was cracked and they couldn't get a replacement for it. To save my reputation I bought them the vac and fired them afterward. To assume all clients won't make you responsible is naive. I carry my own vac for this reason.
Vacuums are a huge part of cleaning. You couldn't really clean without them, right? Here are a pile of vacuums shows giving house cleaners, home owners & maids tips & strategies on the best vacuums to use when cleaning client's & their own homes.
ruclips.net/p/PLh1fKdNH3piSmzClHa1JMxS1pNi4GzuSm
Angela, how do you ask customers to use their vacuums?!
You explain that your company uses the client's vacuums to prevent cross-contamination from house to house. If the customer doesn't have a good working vacuum, recommend one. They are a few hundred dollars (the cost of one cleaning) and then they'll own a good vacuum for life. And you can remind them that you'll clean it out after each use and do a 360 inspection on it to make sure it's in complete working order when you leave.
I'm sorry. Vacuums that are made in the 90s and early 2000s are AMAZING. Suction is the least important thing in a vacuum. You need agitation and airflow 90s vacuum (Ex Hoover Elites) Have very poor suction, but they have the airflow of a hurricane or Kirby! I would use an older vacuum over any of today's crap. All as that you can tell them is, buy a new belt and roller. and have a new bag in it when we arrive. that will clean carpets better than your DC41 you own!
Thank you for your feedback and thanks for watching the video.
I dont its preferable in that situation..i am struggling to do the same ...come to think of that majority kf the homeowners have old type of vacuum which is heavier that a pail of water..i could nt even make it fast to the point somehow annoying...😡

Good info.
Glad you think so! Thanks for watching.
You didn’t answer the question
Thanks for noticing. Some questions beg other questions, not an answer. The secret to getting a specific question answered is to ask a specific question.
You didn’t answer the question though.
Knowing what to look for based on your specific needs is the answer. There is no one-size-fits-all answer. I could recommend a brand, and then someone wouldn't have the strength to push it, or they would have pets, or need one that is cordless... Everybody's needs are different - which is why there are so many vacuum varieties on the market.
Watching you empty that Dyson with your hands Yuck it's one reason i prefer people to purchase Miele machines with the throw away bag it's so much more cleaner not having to play with the bag less canisters that don't empty without help..
Thank you for your feedback and thanks for watching the video.🙂
LOL. It's funny you mentioned that. The video we created was for homeowners who typically don't wear personal protective equipment when vacuuming their own homes. It grossed me out so bad to do it because I was wearing shoe covers and gloves and the camera guy is like "homeowners don't wear either of those when cleaning their own homes. Make it look easy enough a homeowner can do it. Everytime I see that clip I'm grossed out. "Ewww." Good catch. :-)
And that plume of fine dust too.
2 words: bed bugs
Yuck...the fear of many! Thanks for watching.
Thank you Angela for another helpful video.
You are so welcome! And thank you for watching. 😊
Hi Angela! Thank you so much ( yes that was me)
Thanks for participating and for dropping me a note. :-)
I always felt it was common sense that everyone used their own vacuums to avoid cross contamination
Some information might seem like common sense to one person and at the same time be completely new to the other😊
Alright the big question we all want to know, what's the intro song.
LOL. I wonder the same thing. It's from a licensed music library that you can sort by length. Our editing team is trying to jazz things up a bit. ;-)
