Ask your carpet cleaner where they dump carpet cleaning wastewater?

Carpet cleaners spend at least an hour in your home cleaning your carpets. After using hot water to steam clean and extracting all the dirt, where do they dump the wastewater?

Carpet Cleaners cannot afford to ignore the law! The dumping of cleaning wastewater onto the street, into the storm drain or onto open ground is environmentally unacceptable and a lot of people care.

We live in a time of increased awareness of how our actions affect the environment. More than ever, we are conscious of "chemicals" in our everyday lives and even the average citizen has become a self-appointed ecology cop. A whole raft of "departments" from Fish & Game to Environment Protection are showing more and more concern over our activities.

Dirty waste from our cleaning operation contains detergents, soils, fibers, and all types of foreign material. Many people incorrectly believe that if they use a detergent that is "biodegradable," it is safe to put back into the environment. This is not the case.
