Building A Cleaning Schedule

If you own a commercial building it’s imperative to put a regular cleaning schedule in place. The questions are: when will the regular cleaning be done? Daily, weekly, or monthly? What specific cleaning services ought to be performed on certain days, weeks, or months?

Here’s what you should include in your cleaning schedule for your building in order to ensure a clean, safe, and healthy environment.

Daily cleaning is important. Many types of office equipment and other touchpoints in the building have to be cleaned daily. What are these and how should you clean them?

First off, you have to sanitize things such as doorknobs, elevator buttons, handrails, and even your water fountains. Second, indoor office equipment and devices such as keyboards, monitors, and touch-screen devices ought to be cleaned too. Third, you have to pay particular attention to all other shared items and surfaces inside the building. These include the pantry, kitchen, and bathroom. Finally, all flat surfaces and floors in the workplace shouldn’t be ignored, either. Give them a good going over as well.

For weekly cleaning, it’s best to target areas or items that can’t be cleaned during working hours. Chances are the building may be closed on the weekends, so you can do additional cleaning then.

First, sanitize and deodorize the building on the weekend so that the environment will be conducive for work the following week. Second, focus on dusting electronic devices like calculators, copy machines, phone systems, and furniture. Third, you should also clean and deodorize the coffee pot, coffee maker, refrigerator, and any other appliances inside the kitchen or break room. Doing all that will give the office a new look and fresh smell.

Monthly cleaning focuses on every single nook and cranny of the building. When you do a monthly cleaning, you should make sure that you leave no stone unturned. There are areas and touchpoints in the building that you shouldn’t neglect.

That said, you should pay attention to your floors and windows to ensure that you can keep them from wearing out easily. It’s best to use professional cleaning equipment to steam clean or buff your floors in order to remove stubborn dirt. For window areas, you should dust off baseboards, air vents, fans, blinds, and other items. Chances are they’ve accumulated too much dust, dirt, and grime over the last month or so. Furthermore, it’s important to choose your cleaning products wisely to prevent any untoward damage to the components.

We hope that the aforementioned suggestions will help you keep your building and its interiors as clean as possible. In the end, the goal is to provide you and your employees with a clean, safe, and healthy workspace conducive for working.
