It can prevent fires in your home, prevent mold growth, and increase the lifespan of your drying machine. Much like when air ducts need cleaning and can reduce the efficiency of your HVAC system, a similar effect is achieved when dryer vents need cleaning.
Even a slightly obstructed dryer vent can cause your dryer to work significantly harder than a clean dryer vent. You will notice that your clothes take much longer to dry and your energy bills will spike. You can keep your energy bills low by having regular dryer cleaning done professionally.

The purpose of your dryer is to remove the moisture from the washing process.

This is achieved through heat, movement, & venting — the key process being venting.

If your dryer simply tumbled and added heat, everything would overheat and there would be little opportunity for that moisture to escape the drum of your dryer. With a free and clear dryer vent, all is well. But, when there is built-up lint and debris obstructing the vent, this lint and debris can soak up the water. Bacteria and mold can thrive in that damp and warm environment.

It is also important to note that lint is very flammable. Dryers have lint traps to collect the line and these traps need to be emptied regularly. The combination of lint build-up and the high heat from dryers can be a recipe for disaster as house fires can start due to neglecting to empty the lint trap or regularly performing dryer vent cleaning.
