Mops against a wall

Choosing the right cleaning service is important because a neat office reflects well on customers, clients, and employees. The appearance of your business and workplace is the first thing people can notice while they visit your property. And amid the pandemic, it is more important to ensure cleanliness, follow SOPs, and disinfect surfaces regularly.

Therefore, maintaining a clean office can be essential for any business. And most professional companies often hire commercial cleaning services and janitorial services instead of hiring a full-time janitor. A cleaning service is like the silent sentinels; they do their work after hours, clean the areas of the office and stand guard against bacteria, grout build-up, dirt, and grime.

You will be able to find many commercial cleaning services in your area and city. But choosing a service that’s right for you can take some time. Here is what you can do to find out if a commercial cleaning service is right for you:

Make Sure To Research

The first thing you can do is research the cleaning service businesses in the city whose service offerings align with your needs. Also, if you know other business owners in the vicinity, you can ask them for a recommendation. This can be highly useful because you would be getting first-hand and honest reviews based on real-time experience.

If you don’t have anyone to ask, look up local cleaning companies online. Take the time to read the reviews listed by others. Once you have narrowed your list, you can call up a local cleaning business for a meeting to get further information

Remember To Ask For References

Any company on your list should be happy to share references with you because references and reviews can be a huge help while you are finding the right cleaning service. References can come in the form of testimonials but don’t be afraid to contact those references directly. If some people are happy with particular cleaning services, they will not mind taking a few minutes out of their schedule to speak with you.

Check For Liability Insurance

All professional cleaning agencies should be able to provide proof of insurance, license, and certifications. Also, you can consider companies that hire regular employees instead of temporary employees or cash workers. These companies usually carry liability insurance if a worker gets injured on the job. This insurance protects your business and the cleaner. So, always check and verify the business license.

These are the basics you can check for, in addition to asking about their cleaning process, cleaning checklists for staff, hours flexibility, and cleaning methods for COVID-19 SOPs.
