Like any budget line in your business, you want to maximize output — you want to get the most bang for your buck! Office cleaning is one of those line items that you pay for every month. It may be mandatory. Did you know there are things you can do to make sure you’re getting the most of out the time your Calgary office cleaners spend in your space? There are things you can do before your office cleaners come (no, it’s not pre-cleaning — we promise!) to make sure they can get right down to business when they arrive and make your office as clean as possible in the time they have!

One of the most effective ways to maximize your Calgary office cleaning time is also one of the easiest! If you know your cleaner comes every Tuesday night, ask all your team members to spend the last few moments of their day tidying their desks — putting pens away, organizing papers, stacking binders and books. That means your office cleaning team can get right down to wiping and disinfecting the surface. While you may not want to tackle the kitchen counters, putting basic thing like utensils and coffee pods away may free up a few extra minutes so your cleaner can get down to the dirty stuff!

So what else can you do before your Calgary office cleaning team arrives to prioritize their time? Clean and organize clutter on the floor (think about those file boxes piled in the corner of your board room) so that your office cleaner can vacuum without having to repeatedly stop to make space. Also, invest in sturdy and durable floor mats inside the front door of your office, or a boot mat for employees to put their boots on. This will eliminate all the mud and snow that gets inadvertently tracked down the hallways in the winter months.

Your Calgary office cleaning team will thank you if you take a few extra moments in your day to tidy up a few small spaces. Taking good care of your cleaning team means they’ll be able to clean more effectively, more thoroughly and faster!
