Hiring a professional commercial cleaning company, such as Keepers Commercial Cleaning, is by far the most efficient way to ensure that your commercial properties are maintained to the highest standard, however if you are hiring in house for your cleaning, then below are some commercial cleaning tips you may find useful!
1. Importance of Carpet Cleaning
One of the main reasons of keeping your office space clean is for your potential clients and visitors. So, walk where they would walk! Walk the same route as your potential client, look around and take note at what could be cleaner.
2. Declutter Your Desks
Stop cluttering your desk. One of the main items in your office will be the office desk space. If you limit the amount of objects cluttering your desk, it will look a lot cleaner, even if you have just placed everything into drawers.
3. Don’t forget Keyboards
We can test the cleanliness of your office, while you’re reading this paragraph. Lift your keyboard upside down and shake it around for five seconds. See all those crumbs that have just fallen out? They need to be cleaned up. Clean and sanitize your keyboard at least once/twice a week, or limit the amount of food eaten at your desk, to keep on top of it.
4. Clear Out Fridges
The last working day of every month, this should not only be known as pay day, but also the fridge clear out day! Yep, that’s right, whatever food is left in the fridge come that evening, throw it in the bin. Trust me, you don’t want spilt milk lining the bottom of your fridge, if you haven’t got a professional cleaning company to mop it up.
5. Plants Need Care
The office plants. There’s no point owning a pretty office plant if no one is willing to keep on top of the falling leaves. Be sure to pick up any leaves off your floor, water and dust the leaves to keep it looking pretty. Or just buy an artificial plant, and just dust it!
6. Microwave’s Can Have Stubborn Marks
This tip will make caked on food much easier to remove. Place a mug of cold water in the microwave and bring to boil. If you have a tablespoon of vinegar to add even better. This will loosen all stubborn marks and food can be removed quickly.
7. Spot Check Your Corners
Out of sight out of mind? This is the philosophy of many office workers, especially if their task that evening is to clean their personal home. Make sure that all furniture is moved away from the walls every so often, and make sure that behind the furniture is properly vacuumed. All sorts of object tend to hide here!
8. Office Phones Are High Touch Areas
Make sure you sanitize your office phone regularly; the last thing you want is your entire work force off sick with the same illness. Saliva and germs will accumulate on the phone. As part of our task schedule introduced by Office Keepers all telephones are expected to be sanitized at least once a week.
9. Dishes Should Be Washed Same Day
All dishes and cups left in the break room should be washed right away. Make it a rule to have each person wash their own dishes, or fines may result!
10. Empty Bins Daily
Take out your bins and recycle your waste regularly. The last thing you want is for a visitor to come into your offices and have to try and balance their apple core on the top of your rubbish in your full bins.

I didn’t know that you could use vinegar for general cleaning. I need to get some furniture cleaner for the sofas. We have been getting a lot of pet stains.
Thanks for the reminder that high-touch areas are also important to consider when planning a maintenance routine. I’d like to know more about how to find a good commercial cleaning service because I want to have my own business by next year. Being able to properly maintain its establishment will be very crucial right from the beginning.
I love that you said that cleaning your desks could help start the proper condition of your property. My sister told me yesterday that she was planning to have a janitorial service consultation that could provide a clean environment for their apparel company property. She asked if I had any idea what would be the best option to consider. Thanks to this informative cleaning guide article for effective planning. I’ll tell her it will be much better if she consults trusted commercial janitorial services as they can answer all her inquiries and would provide good-quality cleaning service.
