  4. Brushes (Not Floor) — Store in a clean dry area.
  5. Entrance Mats — Keep clean unused mats in a dry flat place so edges do not curl, and avoid freezing temperatures.
  6. Dusters — Keep dusters clean and dry.
  7. Squeegees — Store squeegees off the floor so the blade does not distort.
  8. Shovels — Keep shovels out of main traffic areas and away from damp conditions.
