September is a very good month for a cleaning

professional and a building manager to review

cleaning procedures and start planning for the

coming fall and winter. Here are some quick cleaning

tips that can really help in commercial cleaning.

1. Focus on the Floors: Always scrub entry

floors to remove soils and make sure you re-

coat them to give the floors added protection.

You may also need to increase cleaning and

burnishing cycles on entry floors.

2. Focus on the Carpet: Do not delay cleaning

the carpets before and during the winter

months. The carpets may become saturated

with contaminants, lowering the quality of

the indoor environment. Make sure to clean

them thoroughly.

3. Break cleaning routine: Many professional

cleaners will clean restrooms, counters and

fixtures in the same way. Breaking this

routine once in a while can ensure that the

areas that are rarely cleaned get cleaned.

4. Install mats: Though not strictly a cleaning

trick, installing 15 feet of matting inside each

entrance will help in capturing sand, ice melt

and salt before it is tracked further inside the

facility. This will keep the facility cleaner.

5. Repair any floor defects, such as cracks and

chips, because this is where the soil and ice

melts become trapped.

6. Clean computers and electronics: Dust the

outside of all electronic equipment and have

a technician clean the inside of equipment as

well, preferably with a dry cloth. This keeps

such equipment functioning better for longer.

7. Keep desks and counters clean: cleaning

and arranging work-spaces such as desks

and counters removes clutter and helps the

overall facility to look clean and neat.

8. Sanitize: Sanitize restrooms and floors

regularly to prevent build up of bacteria. You

can also sanitize such work-spaces since

according to research, the average desk

harbors more bacteria than the average toilet

seat.

9. Encourage employees to play their part.

Employees can add to the cleanliness of an

office by wiping their feet before entering the

premises, washing coffee mugs and dishes

after they have used them, and washing after

themselves when they spill something on the

floors or desks. This makes the work of the

professional cleaners that much easier.

10. Clean the office refrigerator regularly.

Placing an opened box of baking soda on the

shelf may help eliminate odors and keep it

smelling fresh.

11. Organize the power cords properly.

Tangled and unorganized electronic

equipment can lead to clutter and health

hazards.

12. Wipe the photo frames and book-shelves

with a damp cloth to remove accumulated

dust and keep them looking clean.

13. Clean interior windows well using a

squeegee and detergent.

14. Try and use 'green' cleaning solutions, for

example chemicals that are not harmful

when inhaled or that do not leave harmful

residues on surfaces.

15. Exterior cleaning: not only must the

interior of the facility be clean but also the

outside as well exterior cleaning will involve

removing of litter and dirt outside as well as

preservation of the building's architecture.

16. Ensure cupboards and drawers in the kitchen

are cleaned thoroughly as they may become

breeding grounds for roaches and pests.

17. Ensure there is always running water

because when water runs out blockages in

the drainage system may occur leading to

pungent smells and inconveniences.

18. While cleaning, ensure no big solid items

get into the drainage system, including sinks,

because they may cause blockages.

19. In order to get good results, the right

commercial cleaning equipment must be

used, such as vacuum cleaners, floor

scrubbers and steam cleaners.

20. Always ask for help if you are in doubt

about what to do, or how to use the

equipment.
