Remodeling is under way on the new Campustown location for Kinko's, which plans to move from 606 S. Sixth St., C, to 613 S. Wright St., C, this spring.

Shop manager Debbie Montgomery said the move is set to take place in mid-May, and the Kinko's on Sixth Street will remain open until then.

The new shop will be a bit smaller than the current one, but will continue to offer the same services, she said.

Kinko's is moving to make way for a planned multistory apartment building, with retail and office spaces, and a parking deck, in the works for the northwest corner of Sixth and Green streets.

Vacuum shop adds new merchandise

Byers Vacuum Cleaner Sales & Service, formerly in Urbana, is now doing business at its new location in Champaign and has added some new lines, says owner John Byers.

The shop is now at 77 E. University Ave., at the corner of First Street and University Avenue, and will be celebrating a grand opening this week with a chance to win prizes for those who stop by, Byers said.

At the new location, Byers has added Riccar sewing machines, a line he used to carry decades ago but dropped for lack of space at the old shop. He also has added Miele vacuum sweepers, a high-end German-made brand, to his selection of sweepers, he said.

The shop offers repair services and also sells used, reconditioned vacuum sweepers.
