Rental vs Purchase

When to Rent

• One-Time Cleanup: If the probate property requires a one-time thorough cleaning, renting equipment can be more cost-effective.
• Specialized Equipment: For unique cleaning tasks (like pressure washing) that you don’t need regularly, renting can save storage space and maintenance costs.

When to Purchase

• Frequent Use: If you anticipate doing multiple cleanouts or ongoing property management, investing in equipment might be worthwhile.
• Long-Term Projects: When handling extensive renovations or ongoing property maintenance, owning the necessary tools can provide convenience and reliability.

Safety Equipment

• Gloves: Protects hands from sharp objects and harsh cleaning chemicals.
• Dust Masks: Helps prevent inhalation of dust, mold, or other allergens during cleaning.
• Safety Goggles: Protects eyes from debris and cleaning agents, especially when using strong chemicals or power tools.
