my bucket list...

I'm thinking of the right tools for the job.
Most of the vacuuming is done in my cleaning project, but the fine dust is more than my shop vac can handle. The whole place needs to be wet swabbed.
Should I get a string mop or a sponge mop with a squeeze handle at a cost of $50 with a bucket.
I ponder...
This is not my area of expertise !
The shop vac does wet or dry but I'm actually thinking to rent a carpet cleaner that sprays water.
A day's rental runs $75 or I can buy my own cleaner and use it as needed.
Hoover has an upright cleaner for $100 and a professional model for $150.
Really designed for carpet it has forced air to dry and I would think it would do the job on tile.
With the hose and upholstery attachment it's possible I could eliminate the need for a mop and bucket.

That said, I could eliminate one bucket off my bucket list!

I'd recommend a good steam cleaner, even if it costs more. Get one you can use as a handheld as well. They clean everything, including the oven.

But also pick up a cheap mop just to deal with emergency spills.
It all depends on the nature of the surface that needs attending to and the requirements forthwith.

molly, he's thinking of being a 'turbo' man, go for it gal! rolling on the floor laughing
Sponge and squeeze is the way to go! Thank you for an education of American cleaning options! Good luck with your choice of choice! Sure you'll make a clean sweep, laugh
A sponge mop with the divided bucket seems like a good option. Just get spare sponges.
Nice to see a blogger keep it clean. laugh
Good thinking. Get the same or better result with less material and less effort.
