Prepare for Your Clean
The time has finally come! Your cleaner is coming tomorrow, and as a highly considerate and cool person (our typical client), you are wondering what you should do to prepare for your Betty.
Have no fear! Answers are here:
- Kindly put away items whose home may not be obvious. Our cleaners are perceptive, but, alas, not clairvoyant. So a communal stapler may end up on the conference table rather than next to the printer.
- If you want a surface to be cleaned/sanitized, please remove any loose items (like papers or knick knacks).We always err on the side of caution when it comes to moving your personal belongings. Please let us know if there are any areas you don’t want your cleaner to touch, and we’ll hold our dusters back.
- Please tidy up dirty dishes. Don’t sweat a coffee mug in the sink, but remember—as a general policy, we don’t wash dishes.
- If you need extra help beyond the Standard Clean (like scrubbing out the fridge or a deep clean of your common room), contact us at least a week in advance. We may need to add an hour or two to your regular session, or call in an additional cleaner.
- Make sure your cleaner can access garbage, recycling and compost dumpsters. Please provide replacement can liners, too.
Special notes about events
- If a big meeting or event will overlap with your scheduled cleaning time, please let us know a week ahead of time. That way, we can try to reschedule your clean so we’re not vacuuming while you’re PowerPointing.
- Want a full clean before or after a big event? We can help! Please give us a week’s notice before you want us to get scrubbing, so we can coordinate schedules.
After that? Just sit back, relax, and prepare for a beautifully cleaned space!
