The 20-Point Commercial Checklist includes cleaning in these areas:

TRASH/RECYCLING

• Empty trash cans – Empty can and replace liner only if soiled. Plastic bags are replaced as needed in order to reduce the amount of plastic introduced into the waste stream.
• Empty paper/plastic/aluminum/glass recycling bins – Empty bin and wet wipe with cleaner in case of liquid contamination. Recycling bins are not lined with a plastic bag in order to reduce the amount of plastic introduced into the waste stream.

GENERAL CLEANING

• Remove litter and debris – Pick up and dispose of cast-off items such as papers, cups, food wrappers, etc.
• Straighten furniture – Return movable furniture to the normal configuration after cleaning, such as pushing conference chairs neatly up to the table.
• Clean entrance mats – Vacuum or turn over grid floor mats daily to remove dirt.
  Remove and clean recessed entrance grids as needed.
• Clean doorknobs, lever handles, switch plates, push bars, and pull handles – Clean these common touchpoints to reduce the potential for cross-contamination.
• Clean restroom fixtures, mirrors, and partitions – Clean restroom sinks, mirrors, and partitions during the routine sanitation of the restrooms each visit.
• Clean toilets and urinals – Clean toilets and urinals during the routine sanitation of the restrooms each visit. Microfiber wipers are color-coded so that there is no cross-contamination between the sinks/mirrors and the toilets/urinals. Red wipers are used for the toilets and urinals, and yellow wipers are used for the sinks and mirrors. The microfiber wipers are machine washed after use and fresh wipers are used in each restroom to reduce the potential for cross-contamination.
• Replenish restroom supplies – Replenish hand soap, paper towels and toilet paper during the routine sanitation of the restrooms each visit as needed depending on user load.
• Clean water fountains – Clean as part of the routine cleaning each visit.
• Clean interior door glass and entrance glass – Wipe glass clean of smudges, smears, and spots.
• Spot clean wet wipe surfaces – Wet wipe surfaces such as tables, desks, and walls to remove dirt, grime, and spots.
• Appliance cleaning – Cleaning the exterior of microwaves, refrigerators, and stoves/ovens are always included for break room areas.
• Vacuum or damp wipe furniture – Vacuum cloth upholstered furniture; damp wipe plastic, wood, or vinyl upholstered furniture as necessary to remove dirt, grime, and spots. (Wet cleaning of cloth upholstery is an additional service)
• Dust all surfaces – Dust surfaces that are free of objects, including ledges, window sills, and cubicle partitions. High dusting and cobweb removal will be performed on an as-needed basis.
• Interior window cleaning – Interior window cleaning is performed on an as-needed basis. Exterior window cleaning is added to the contract to be performed at regular intervals

FLOOR CARE

• Vacuum – Vacuum floor surfaces, carpet, and hard floors to remove loose dirt and dust. We use vacuums with HEPA filtration systems to effectively capture and contain 99.9% of particles measuring one micron or larger.
• Sweep – Brooms are used routinely to sweep restrooms, break rooms, and outside entrances rather than vacuums because of the potential for the floor surfaces to be wet.
• Mop – Manual damp mopping is used on hard surface floors to remove spots and spills.
• Carpet washing/extraction – Spots and spills, as well as overall maintenance on carpets is added to the contract to be performed at regular intervals. Carpet washing/extraction is the wet cleaning process used for thorough wall-to-wall cleaning of the carpet.

***Machine scrubbing, wax buffing, stripping & refinishing are all additional services
