General office cleaning:

To make the most efficient use of your time when cleaning any premises, whether it’s a bank, travel agent or office block, you must PLAN your work.

But planning doesn’t just start when you get to the site. Even before
you start the contract you must make sure that;

- you read and fully understand the specification provided by
Procleanz.
- if keys are provided, especially if they are new, they fit the locks.

- you’re fully able to operate the alarm system if one is fitted.

- you've gathered together all the equipment you'll need to do a
good job. Make sure everything is clean and in satisfactory
working order.

Always have with you an Emergency Kit which will enable you to carry out any minor repairs to your vacuum if something goes wrong. The Kit should contain;

- 2 spare dust bags

- 1 spare drive belt, if your vacuum is fitted with one
- 1 spare plug and fuse
- 1 small electrical screwdriver

- a roll of insulation tape so that you can carry out temporary repairs

The first time you clean any contract have a quick look around the
premises, checking for electric sockets, checking the condition of the toilets and kitchen and generally reminding yourself where everything is. If the premises to be cleaned are on more than one floor, take all of the cleaning equipment to the top floor and work downwards towards the entrance door.

You should always clean a room in a logical order, bringing the dust
down from a height of 6 feet, to the floor. Work systematically around the room, beginning at the door you came through.

Any room, other than a kitchen, or washroom, should be routinely cleaned in the following sequence;

- pick up by hand any large items of litter, metal staples and
paper clips

- empty ash trays and waste-bins

- any quarterly high-level dusting

- on a daily basis, dust everything to a height of 6 feet, on a
weekly basis, damp-wipe or polish

- dust mop sweep hard floors and remove any spillage marks

- vacuum carpeted areas

- replace any furniture, ash trays and waste-bins you may have
moved.

Finally,before you leave the room, have a good look round.
Have you cleaned everything thoroughly? Have you replaced all the furniture etc? If you’re satisfied that you’ve done your best, turn off any light that you may have switched on and move to the next room to clean.

HINT:

Always make sure that the desk and office belonging to the person
responsible for the cleaning is left in
