Preparing for a cleaning service entails several steps aimed at ensuring the cleaners can do their job effectively and efficiently. Below are the key steps you should follow:
Declutter your space: As highlighted in the example, decluttering is an essential first step. Make sure to pick up any loose items off the floor, clear your countertop, and put away personal items or objects that may obstruct the cleaning process. The less clutter around, the more effectively and efficiently the cleaning service can perform their work.
Secure valuables: It’s always a good idea to secure your valuables not just for safety, but also to prevent misplacement during the cleaning process. This includes items like jewelry, expensive electronics, important documents, etc.
Make Access Easy: If you won’t be around when the cleaners arrive, make sure they have a way to access your home. this might be by providing a spare key, a code to your lockbox, or arranging for someone to let them in. Following these steps will ensure that the cleaning teams can do their job effectively and that you get the most out of their service.
Provide Clear Instructions: If there are specific cleaning products you want used, or particular methods of cleaning you prefer, ensure to communicate this clearly. If there are areas or items that are off-limits or require special care, the cleaners should be made aware of this too.
