Buffalo Grove Cleaning and Home Services

In the same year that Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick was published and California celebrated its official admission as a state, Hinsdale Nurseries sold its first tree. Since opening its doors in 1850, the family-run nursery—now under the helm of a third generation of green thumbs—has upheld its dedication to fostering hardy and beautiful gardens in the oft-extreme climes of the Midwest region, thanks to the staff’s exhaustive knowledge of area growing conditions. These plant enthusiasts coax trees, ornamentals, and perennials from 550 acres of earth in Plano before trucking the verdant bounty to their Willowbrook store for purchase. Hinsdale Nurseries also beautifies green spaces via landscaping services ranging from year-round yard maintenance to pruning backyard labyrinths and shaving their minotaurs.

Green Home Chicago adorns living spaces with a wide variety of aesthetically pleasing and environmentally friendly interior accoutrements. Vetted by a 10-point “green” classification system, every Earth-coddling product benefits sustainability efforts through locally sourced materials, green manufacturing processes, or recycled content. Uninspired wall space can be enriched with nontoxic paint, recycled wallpaper, or an eye-catching object from a local artist. A plethora of stylish, American-made furnishings add tasteful accents to dining rooms and underground lairs, and bio fuel fireplaces alight drafty billiard rooms with denatured ethanol-fed flames (a fireplace unit purchase will come with an extra 15% discount). One of Green Home’s LEED accredited designers can provide expert advice as to the ideal placement of a natural-fibered throw rug or one can simply be propped up on stakes and used as a makeshift living space. Green Home Chicago also offers eco-friendly cabinetry and full-service kitchen design and remodeling.

We are a green friendly company. We use environmentally safe products and avoid toxic chemical solvents that most dry cleaners use.

Junk Patrol helps simplify clients' homes with a streamlined, three-step process. After customers call to set up an initial appointment, uniformed technicians arrive to survey the unwanted junk and furnish a price quote that includes all labor and disposal fees. Then their strong-armed staff whisks away the cargo that same day, hauling off furniture, electronics, and construction material to a dump, donation center, or recycling facility. Junk Patrol also offers a selection of labor services, such as moving furniture or loading and unloading a U-Haul.

An old treadmill that’s become a drying rack for clothes. A broken air conditioner that’s sat in the garage for three summers. The crews of 1-888-JUNK-VAN drive their trucks to clients’ homes and remove such domestic deadweight, sometimes dispatching for same-day service. Upon arrival, junk-removal specialists tell homeowners to relax and leave the lifting to them. They then swiftly haul away appliances, furniture, and napping roommates, charging each job by weight. In keeping with the company’s green mandate, crews recycle as many reclaimed items as possible, and any items that cannot be reused are sorted for proper disposal. To further their commitment to environmental responsibility and community outreach, 1-888-JUNK-VAN leaders regularly donate to the Make-A-Wish Foundation and match each $2 donation that clients make at time of service.

A Touch Above Cleaning’s staff combs through kitchens, bathrooms, and living spaces with their own arsenal of cleaning equipment and products during scheduled services and deep cleans. At residences, they’ll scrub caked food off of kitchen appliances and countertops, dust living room fixtures, clean all the floors, and shine up showers and tubs until they’re as reflective as chrome-plated replicas of Rodin’s The Thinker. In addition to gussying up homes, they provide cleaning services for offices and other commercial spaces, offering nighttime and weekend cleaning sessions so as to not disrupt daytime business.
