Chair Cleaning: Saved From the Landfill [Photo Contest]

The photo contest winner for this issue is Adam Vasquez of SuperShine Carpet Cleaning in Boise, Idaho for his company’s massive chair cleaning effort that kept hundreds of chairs out of the landfill. His company will receive a Visa gift card worth $250.

The owner of a golf club was going to throw away hundreds of chairs because he thought they would be beyond cleaning. This one, covered with wax, was the worst one. We asked him to let us try to clean it and see what we could do. We ended up cleaning 200 chairs, and they all came out awesome. Hard work pays off!

For an opportunity to win a gift card worth $250, send your images and a brief 100-word description on how you obtained your results to Jeff Cross, media director, at [email protected], or submit via Facebook messenger at facebook.com/cleanfax. Contest rules available by request.
