Join the Opening List →Auburn, the DeKalb County seat north of Fort Wayne, calls itself the Home of the Classics, and it hosts the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Festival and the DeKalb County Fair. TotalCare Cleaning will service Auburn, including Auburn Center, as part of the Fort Wayne area.
Auburn's classic car heritage gives the town its name and its best-known festival, and the county fair adds another date to the local calendar. If you are hosting family for either one, a clean beforehand is a natural plan.
It also runs its own utilities. The city's drinking water is groundwater from 10 production wells in two well fields, north and south, drawing from a sand and gravel aquifer. It is a different source from Fort Wayne's softened river water, so fixtures here may behave differently.
About 23 percent of housing units in Auburn were built in 1939 or earlier, which is a larger share than in Fort Wayne overall. About 71 percent are single family detached, about 68 percent have three or more bedrooms, and about 9 percent are mobile homes. About 24 percent of occupied homes are rented.
An old house usually needs a gentler touch and a catch-up visit. A One-Time Deep Clean covers hand washed baseboards, wet-wiped blinds, window tracks and vents. Paint from before 1978 should be wiped rather than scraped or sanded, and old wood floors do best with a barely damp mop. The older home guide goes into detail on all of that. For renters leaving a home, the Moving Clean adds the inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets.
Groundwater can carry its own mineral load, and any tap water leaves something behind as it dries. If you want specifics, look at the city's own water report. For everyday purposes, a squeegee on the shower door and a dry cloth over faucets keep things looking clean, and a deep clean treats shower glass for hard water spots.
The City of Auburn provides weekly garbage pickup and every other week recycling on the utility bill, sells bulk item tags for items such as sofas, and runs a spring clean-up by zone in April and May. Cleaners do not haul furniture, so buy a tag or wait for your zone's clean-up to clear large items.
Fort Wayne's normal annual snowfall of 33.6 inches gives a fair idea of the winter here too, and salt and slush at the door are part of that. Prices follow home size on the area's one table; see the cost page.
