5 Things to Remember to tell your cleaner

Important Cleaning Advice

There are hundreds of commercial cleaners in Auckland and every town and city that are cleaning after everyone has gone home, so you very rarely get to see them, and are often forgotten about when changes are made. Here are 5 things to remember to tell your cleaning company:

1. Change of locks

Your cleaners have keys or swipe cards to access your building after hours. Don't forget to let your cleaners know if you change your locks or swipe card system, and provide them with the new keys or cards before they are due to clean.

2. Change of Security Company

Your cleaners will have the security monitoring company details that they may have to phone every night, or if the alarm is accidentally activated. Don't forget to let them know if you change companies, otherwise there may be security problems when they arrive to clean, or if they activate the alarm.

3. Change of Alarm Codes

If you change your alarm codes let the cleaners know, otherwise they will set off the alarm when they arrive, and won't be able to clean your office or premises.

4. Change of After Hours Contact Person

Your cleaner will usually have an after hours contact person in case they arrive at your premises and there is an issue, like a break in or flood. Ensure that if this person leaves you let your cleaner know who they should now contact in case of an emergency. 

5. Change of rubbish or recycling systems

Your cleaners will usually empty your bins and recycling every time they clean. Don't forget to let them know if you have a change of systems, so there aren't any issues with rubbish or recycling being put in the wrong places.
