Did watching Twisters make you want to run out and buy Glen Powell’s cowboy hat and a white t-shirt? Put some legitimacy behind the trend and learn to rope, ride, and work cattle at the world’s only Cowboy College – right here in Scottsdale.
But let’s say you aren’t interested in becoming a cowboy – and want to enjoy a less rugged – and less dusty – Scottsdale lifestyle.
Well, then you need to know the latest trends to keep your home dust-free and spotless.
Luxe Cleaning Trends
1. Hire it Done
Support local businesses by hiring professional cleaners, organizers, property managers, landscapers, and interior designers. Not only are Arizona businesses well versed in the intricacies of living in the desert, but they can also offer more personalized service than nationwide companies. Build a network of local, trusted crews who specialize in deep cleaning services for carpet and tile, windows, patio refreshers, and landscaping. You want local talent who will respond to your calls and take action.
2. Focus on Sustainability
There is a real push (and rightly so) for eco-friendly and non-toxic construction materials, paint, and furnishings. Expect to see more natural stone, bamboo, wood, recycled steel, and masonry used to reduce the impact of new construction on the environment. Using native or desert-adapted plants in your landscape will reduce overall water usage (without planting lawns) and improve the summertime survivability of your plants.
3. Clean with Green
Harsh chemical smells are offensive and could impact your health. Natural cleaning products and laundry soaps – unscented or scented with natural oils – have become far easier to find and stockpile – to ensure your home is safe for your family, guests, and pets. You can even order cleaning products customized to your own scent profile.
4. Respect your NAOS
In Scottsdale, the Natural Area Open Space (NAOS) designation restricts the development of some natural desert spaces. You may own the property within the NAOS easement, but you can’t destroy the plants or soil. NAOS land must remain in its natural desert state to protect the plants and habitats of the Sonoran desert.
The NAOS designation is great for keeping your home cleaner and your family safer from Valley Fever as the desert soil around your home remains undisturbed.
5. Let the Robots In
Move over Roomba, there is more competition in the robotic cleaning market! Robotic vacuuming or hybrid vacuuming/mopping combos can reduce allergens, keep your home guest-ready, and save you time.
Luxury homeowners schedule robotic cleaners to clean around their busy lives. Robotic cleaning machines are becoming more sophisticated, more convenient, more affordable, and more capable of multiple tasks.
6. Use Electric Power Washers
Who loves a good power washer, but hates the noise pollution and gas fumes of the gas-powered machines? Can’t find your earplugs to save your ears from the noise? Then grab an electric pressure washer to knock some items off your honey-do list.
You can quickly, and quietly, eliminate pet messes from your patio, touch up your car, clean your BBQ, and even knock down wasp nests if you are brave (or crazy) enough to do so.
7. Upgrade your Hamper
Lacking a laundry chute? The next best thing is a ventilated hamper to avoid the musty smell of stagnant laundry. Of course, in order for the hamper to work properly, all members of the household must put their dirty laundry into the hamper – and not on the floor next to it.
8. Purify your Air
Whether you want small and classy, or industrial-sized to eliminate odors from multiple pets, there are air purifiers to meet your needs. Air purifiers pull contaminants, pollutants, dust, and smoke out of your home, which is especially important during monsoon season in Arizona. Save your lungs and invest in one today.
