ALPHARETTA, Ga., Jan. 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Celebrating innovation and efficiency within the cleaning industry, custodians across the country submitted their best cleaning tips that help make a custodian's job faster, better, and easier. Custodians competed for a chance to win a big cash prize with Avision's Easy Clean Award contest. The winners and their tips have now been revealed.
Celebrity judge, Ricardo Regalado - CEO and Founder of Route and podcast host of Cleaning & Cocktails - evaluated contest submissions and selected Blanca Ramirez and Maria Gomez as the top finalists. "We launched this contest to spotlight the hardworking professionals who help keep our spaces clean and safe every day,” said Amber Byrd, of Avision. "The response has been incredible and Blanca & Maria's cleaning tips truly stood out as innovative game-changers for the industry.”
As employees of Diverse Facility Solutions, Inc. (DFS), a 100% minority-owned facility management, consulting, and service professional resource for high-traffic facilities, Ramirez and Gomez are honored to be recognized for their exceptional cleaning tips which contribute to more efficient, effective, and simplified cleaning practices. Their grand prize will be presented in an upcoming celebration of honor.
A Clean Sweep to Victory
Ramirez impressed celebrity judge Regalado with her innovative dust control tip sharing an easy way to clean a vacuum while reducing exposure to airborne dust particles. "This technique not only keeps the workspace cleaner but also protects custodians from directly breathing in dust,” Ramirez shared. "It's a simple, yet practical method that makes a big difference in air quality and safety.”
Gomez wowed celebrity judge Regalado with her trash bag optimization hack where she shares a clever way to prevent trash bags from inflating by using a broom. In her tip, Gomez presses the trash bag towards the interior walls of the trashcan, so trash naturally falls to the middle. "This method keeps trash bags efficient and prevents waste from spilling or creating unnecessary space,” Gomez explained. "It's an easy way to save time and maximize resources throughout the day.”
Both Ramirez and Gomez exemplify the creativity and problem-solving innovations custodians bring to work every day. Avision and DFS are proud to honor the important work of custodians who work tirelessly to help keep our environments clean and safe.
