A Family History
House of Vacuums is a mid-west "Mom and Pop" store. Greg and Kathryn became the "Mom and Pop" in 2001 when they bought the store from Greg's parents, Charles (Doc Charley, the vacuum doctor) and Jackie Givens. The store has been family-owned since 1974.
Kathryn met Greg at the store's original location on Historic Commercial Street in Springfield, MO. Greg "swept her off her feet," and they got married.
The House of Vacuums offers old-fashioned service for your vacuum cleaner that you can't get at a big name store. Greg has the fastest "turn-around time" in repairs in Springfield and the surrounding area. We carry a lot of parts, and are experts at helping you find what you need. We like to teach our customers how to use and maintain their vacuums, including changing filters, bags, and belts. If you are looking for a new vacuum, we want to help you find one that suits your particular needs and requirements.
We also care about the environment. Americans are filling our landfills with "disposable" vacuums and other items. We offer people a quality product while big corporations offer throw-away products. And we service what we sell, so our products last longer and aren't quick to end up in landfills.
We are a Vacuum Specialty Store. Our customers remember when their parents' vacuums lasted for 10 years or more. Now the department stores push vacuums that do well to last 10 months. (But don't worry, we service most of those, too. See our Services page.)
