Question
A candy stall in a mall that was cleaned and all the chametz was removed today – is Bedikat Chametz required there?
Answer
Shalom u’vracha
I do not know exactly what type of stall is involved, so I will answer in general terms.
General cleaning is not the same as Bedikat Chametz, since it is possible that some areas remain uncleaned.
However, if it is a smooth surface, or something that can be turned over and shaken out, then the place does not contain chametz and does not require a bedika (inspection).
