In addition to a lawn mower, make sure you have the following on hand:

• Rake
• Pruning Shears
• Tree Trimmer
• Broom
• Leaf Bags
• Trash Bags
• Heavy-Duty Gloves
• Wheelbarrow
• Pressure Sprayer
• Spreader
• Tarps

1.) Keep in mind that the leaves will fall at their own pace, likely giving you little trouble some weeks, and then dropping rapidly at once.  Create space in your schedule to clean up the leaves little by little so that when the work gets tougher you haven’t already fallen behind.

2.) Finish bagging the leaves before the first snowfall. If you have a mulch mower, you can also turn them into clippings for fertilization. If you don’t have a mulch mower, use bark mulch.

3.)  After all of the leaves have fallen, clean your gutters.   This may be your least favorite fall chore, but clearing out mushy leaves in winter or spring is far worse.

4.) Use pruning shears to cut back older or decaying branches from your perennials. You should also mulch the soil around the plants to protect them from ice and freezing. Continue to water these plants when there is a lack of rain or snowfall.

5.) Spray weeds like dandelions and clovers in the yard with a herbicide.

6.) Apply a dry fertilizer to your lawn and lay grass seed to fill in sparse areas or dead patches in the yard.

7.)  Plant bulbs in fall for spring.

8.) Once the cold weather hits, wrap tree trunks and shrubs to protect them from the bright and potentially dangerous winter sun. It should remain there until early spring.

9.)  As the days get shorter and the nights longer, you may want to add outdoor lights to your yard or pathway, which will enhance your overall security and make your home look more appealing.

10.) Before the end of the season, give your grass a final cut with your mower on a slightly lower setting than normal.  This length of grass will do well under the snow.

11.)  Gather winter supplies from the garage or shed and store summer and fall equipment.  If your outdoor furniture or lawn machinery will be sitting outside all winter, they should be protected with a tarp to prevent moisture from freezing and causing damage.

Deck:

Invest in good screws.  Stainless steel or coated screws made for pressure treated wood will resist corrosion.

Your primary material options are wood, vinyl or composite.  Wood is the most attractive aesthetically, but it must be treated periodically or it will rot.  Vinyl decking will last forever without maintenance, but it looks like plastic.  Composite decking offers the look of real wood with the longevity of a completely synthetic material.  Vinyl and composite decking costs more than wood.

You don’t have to go with the commonplace railing and spindles that accompany most decks.  Deck railings can be made from vinyl, composites, glass, metal and cabling.

According to your building codes and depending on the height of your deck, you may not need a railing at all.

Incorporate advanced features into your deck, like lighting, planters, a fan and/or a built-in bench and even a sound system.  Deelat sells a wide range of solar lighting products for deck structures, including post cap, wall and pedestal-mounted accent, and step lights.

 SKU #D1151543

Patio:

Construct a base for the patio from sand and gravel, or concrete.  Generally speaking, the base should be from 6 to 8 inches deep.

A patio should have edging to keep weeds and overgrown grass at bay.  Edging can be made of bricks, gravel, cement blocks or stones.  Furthermore, a patio can be edged with flower beds.

Lights should be used to make the patio an inviting place.  Solar landscape lights can be used to demarcate the path to the patio as well as its perimeter.

  SKU #D1173516

In addition to solar powered lights, Deelat offers BBQ grills and picnic tables that can be used on either decks or patios.  If you need to cook skewered foods such as meats and vegetables in large numbers, the BBQ Grill with rotary skewers (D1774580) is designed to ensure even cooking.  Deelat’s synthetic wood picnic table may be the perfect match to your deck’s stain color.

Perhaps this is your first time camping.  Maybe you aren’t camping but roughing it away from the comfort of your own home, in a cottage or RV.  If so, you’ll want to prepare for your next trip to get the most enjoyment out of your vacation.

Here are some great tips to help make your next camping trip more enjoyable:

Sleeping

If you’re using a tent, make sure you have everything needed for assembly.  This includes tent stakes and a hammer.  You will also need a tarp for added protection during the rainy season.  Bring your sleeping bags and comfortable pillows, too.

SKU# D1065744

Eating

For your travels, pack food that you will prepare for meals, as well as snacks and plenty of water.  Insulated transport bags, food storage boxes, cooler boxes and film wrappers will all help you make sure you have the freshest food available.

    SKU #D1141815

Pack cooking equipment and utensils such as a camping stove, pots, pans, dishes, cups, silverware, spatulas, tongs, can openers and oven mitts.  Remember to include trash bags, dish towels and dish washing liquid for clean-up.

Lighting

If you’re going somewhere with reliable sunshine during the day, a good idea would be to bring solar powered lights so you don’t need to think about powering them.  Also, bring handheld flashlights and extra batteries.

  SKU #D1151538

Pest Control

Insect repelent, fly swatters and a bug zapper can help keep your camp insect-free.

   SKU #D1151517

Emergencies

When you’re out in the wilderness, it’s not easy to get medical attention quickly.  Thus, a first aid kit is absolutely essential to have everything you need for most injuries.

 SKU #D1150858

Don’t Forget the Fun!

If you like mountain biking just pick up a bike carrier and you’re all set.  Grab a heavy duty raft for the entire family if everyone is in for some white water rafting.  Just because you’re roughing it outdoors, doesn’t mean you have to leave all your toys at home!

There are lots of ways to do this.  Instead of driving to work, you could walk, take public transportation or car pool.  Better still, why not just work from home if you are able?  In addition to reducing the demand for fossil fuels, you are saving gas money.  Another environmentally beneficial thing you can do in your place of work (and your home) is to eliminate the use of single-use, throwaway containers.

Below are additional tips on how you can make your home and business more environmentally friendly:

Harness the Power of the Sun

The solar boom is here to stay, and there are numerous products you can use to take advantage of the power of sunlight.  Homes and businesses benefit from motion-activated solar powered lights.  In addition to saving you money on your electric bill, they provide safety and security.

Our Solar Powered Exhaust Fan and Ventilator (D1155703) is ideal for keeping attic space cool during the summer, thereby improving the efficiency of your HVAC system.  So it not only runs on renewable energy but also reduces the energy used by another system.

SKU #D1155703

Another product to consider is a sun tunnel .  Sun tunnels comprise a dome installed on your roof that is connected to a tube lined with reflective material that amplifies light as it passes through to an opening where the light is diffused into a room in your home or office.  These products are as effective as skylights yet cheaper to install.  Using a sun tunnel instead of turning on lights will help save electricity.

CFLs, LEDs and You

If you haven’t done so already, change the bulbs in your house from incandescent to compact fluorescent light (CFL) types, which will improve your energy usage considerably.  Don’t forget to change the bulbs that you seldom use in the attic, basement, garage and crawl space.  Floodlights for your home and business are often left on at night; replace any halogen types you may have with a CFL or LED variety to save energy and money.  Installing LED fluorescent light tubes at your business is also a must for the same reasons.

Upgrade Your Thermostat

Electronic thermostats with LCD displays are more accurate, and thus more energy efficient, than manual dial thermostats.  Their modern LCD displays allow you to keep track of the temperature and clearly see the current settings.

Appearance:  Outdoor lighting can improve the appearance of your landscaping, provide enough light for late night parties, and improve the aesthetics of your home.  If you are looking to put your house on the market, solar lighting can help improve the resale value of your home.

Deelat’s assortment of outdoor solar-powered lighting offers many options to improve the appearance of your home.  For example, the D1151529 outdoor street light is a solar-powered, 3,000 lumens LED model that can be used to brighten your courtyard, driveway or patio.  The light requires up to ten hours charging in bright sunlight, after which it can light an area for three nights.  This model has a light diameter of 25 feet.

SKU #D1151529

Safety:  Bright lights that are triggered by motion are often enough to deter criminals.  Furthermore, you will feel safe going out at night to run errands, take out the trash or get the mail if you install a light with a motion detector.

Deelat’s powerful solar-powered outdoor lights with motion sensors include the D1151538 model.  This light requires 11 hours to charge in sunlight, after which it has more than five nights worth of lighting time.  This model has a maximum of 1,000 lumens of brightness with a lighting diameter of 16 feet.

   SKU #D1151538

Environmentally Friendly:  Because outdoor solar lighting does not have a negative impact on the environment, you can implement elaborate, guilt-free projects with Deelat’s wide assortment of lighting products.  Try the wall-mounted D1173517 and pedestal-mounted D1151541 solar landscape lights, which are wonderful additions to a landscaped yard.  Don’t forget to add D1173513 in-ground lights to accent your garden as well.

Get ready to battle the snow

It’s not just about making your home look pretty of course, there is also the winter weather to think about. There are many things you can do to take control of your property even when the weather outside is frightful, from buying snow melting mats for your driveway to investing in a salt spreader plow if you have a lot of land you want to make safe from slippery icy patches. If you really want to show the snow who’s boss, you can even get a snow blower or outdoor de-icing cables.

Use your garden as decoration

Of course, while you’re thinking of how to decorate the outdoor spaces of your home, don’t forget that you already have some amazing decorative elements out there – namely your garden and the plants and bushes within it. So make sure you utilize them by decorating them with baubles and tinsel and of course lights, which don’t necessarily have to be Christmas lights. They can be any kind as long as they accentuate the great things about your garden.

However you choose to decorate your home this holiday season, we at Deelat Industrial hope you have a very Merry Christmas and don’t forget us in the New Year for any of your industrial or domestic needs. We’ve got you covered with quality products at low, affordable prices. Shop with us and save!

For many of us, taking care of the environment is a real priority in our lives as we try to minimize the negative impact we make on the planet. Whether it’s a concern over climate change, the desire to leave the world a better place than we found it (or at least not worse) or simply the opportunity to save a few bucks on gas and electricity bills, there’s plenty of reasons to go green!

There are also lots of ways to do this, and the best place to start is from home. We spend a lot of time in our homes and usually focus on our own comfort, which can be at the expense of the environment. Some examples include, leaving lights or electronic devices turned on when not in use, or using more water and heating than we probably should.

Below are some tips on how you can make your home more environmentally friendly without sacrificing your own comfort:

Use solar lighting

During the day, the sun lights up your garden and it doesn’t require any electricity or batteries to power it. So why not continue that same method when the sun goes down? The best kind of lighting solutions you could use in your backyard are available as solar-powered options, with both decorative and security motion lighting available. You can make your garden more attractive and more secure and it doesn’t cost the planet. At Christmas time, you can also buy solar-powered decorations for the outside of your home to add a green touch to your festivities.

Food and drink storage

So much of the damage being done to the environment is caused by food waste and packaging. It all comes wrapped in plastic and cardboard, and buying bottles of water is one of the worst things you can do if you are trying to be environmentally friendly. Instead, why not buy a water bottle that you can re-use as often as you’d like? And when it comes to food, homemade meals and storage boxes that cut down on waste, are the way forward.

 SKU# D1143277

Keep an eye on the bills

Of course, during the winter months you need to keep your home at a safe and comfortable temperature, but sometimes it can be tempting to turn on the central heating and then forget about it until you realize how hot it is. By that stage, your bills have skyrocketed and the planet is worse off. Invest in a proper LCD thermostat that allows you to take control of your heating, cut down on your bills and make your home more environmentally friendly.

Suddenly, instead of having a handy place to store important items, your garage or tool shed has become a disaster zone and you can no longer find anything that you stored away in the first place. It’s time to take control, but where do you start? Here are some tips for cleaning and organizing a garage or tool shed:

Start From Scratch – The first thing you need to do is get ruthless. The only way to properly clean and organize your shed or garage is to empty it out first. For starters, you’ll actually find all those things you haven’t seen for 15 years be able to take stock of everything. Secondly, you’ll finally be able to get everything clean! Throw away, recycle or donate the things you don’t need anymore and you’ll be well on your way to a storage space that actually makes sense.

Get Scrubbing – Once your garage or shed is empty, you need to do a full deep clean to get rid of all of the dust, dirt and cobwebs. Make sure you have the right equipment, which needs to be more janitorial and industrial than your everyday cleaning materials due to the types of surfaces you’ll be cleaning. The main tip for how to clean is to start from the top and work down, ensuring you aren’t knocking cobwebs down onto cleaner surfaces.

Give It New Life – Once everything is clean, you have the chance to add some decoration, whether it’s painting the floor or the walls to make everything look and feel fresh and new. It’s also a good chance to add new lighting options inside to brighten things up and make it easier to find things.

Correct Your Storage Options – You’ve got everything ready to go back into the garage or shed. It’s all clean, painted and lit up like new! What you need here is critical and that’s the proper storage and shelving options to make your life easier. Whether it’s industrial shelving, cabinets or bins and containers, there are many different options out there to suit your specific needs and making the right decisions now will help determine how successful the entire project will be in the years to come.

It’s a pain, and they’re not called chores for nothing, but it’ll be well worth it when you’re able to sit back and relax in a clean and well-maintained yard. You can feel satisfied knowing that you won’t need to do anymore yard work again for… at least a week or two.

Below are Deelat’s top tips for yard clean-up and maintenance:

Get the right tools for the job

It’s the same for all of us; you never realize that your gardening tools are rusty and basically useless until the point at which you try to actually use them for something. It’s a sign that you probably should be using them more often and also a sign that you need to buy something new and non-rusty. Whether it’s pruning shears that actually trim hedges and shrubs really well, or a new lawnmower, you need to make sure you’re not going to be wasting your time trying to do maintenance with substandard equipment.

SKU #D1160567

Apply some pressure

Sometimes, the hardest parts of the yard to get looking good again are the parts that garden trimmers and lawnmowers won’t help you with. It’s the paved areas that can look grimy and neglected, and a simple blast with a hose pipe won’t do much to shift that grime. What you need is a good pressure washer that will bring some power to your cleaning efforts and leave your yard looking fresh and new again. They are surprisingly affordable and definitely worth owning rather than renting.

Don’t forget the pool

If you’re lucky enough to own a pool, the summer is when you’ll be using it the most often, which means you will want to make sure it’s clean and ready to spend time in, especially if you’re planning to have a pool party. This is a job you could pay someone else to do, but why not save some money and do it correctly by purchasing your own pool vacuum and cleaner? You can even get a robotic one which will do the majority of work in those hard to reach places.

Get the finishing touches right

If you’re going to all the effort of cleaning and maintaining your back yard, why not go the extra mile to improve its appearance? It doesn’t even have to cost that much to add the finishing touches to a neat and tidy yard. Adding some decor and functionality like outdoor solar lights will bring some illumination and sparkle to your yard space with a minimum cost and effort required, not to mention ensuring that all of your hard work doesn’t get missed after the sun goes down.
