How can I have cleaners when my business is always open?

A question I get asked time and time again is how to maintain cleanliness in a commercial space that is working 24/7.

My answer is simple: cleaners don’t have to be invisible to get the job done!

Commercial cleaners can come in and work flexibly around your schedule, armed with the latest technologies, to provide a high-quality service with zero disruption to your workplace.

There are three core strategies that are crucial to maintain when providing cleaning for 24/7 companies: visibility, efficiency, and innovation.

Visibility

Cleaning is a customer service facing role and when it comes to 24/7 businesses, the interaction is always there. So, it’s essential that cleaning teams are a positive force and give a strong impression on those around them.

When your team is working around the clock, distractions can be costly, and there are no ‘after hours’ sessions where a conventional cleaning service may come in. Many businesses will see this as a challenge, but I believe it is an advantage.

Having the presence of cleaners will give your colleagues peace of mind that their work environment is being taken care of, and will promote a positive atmosphere to empower your employees through stressful periods.

Efficiency

While visibility is important, it’s crucial to find the balance of being a reassuring presence while getting the job done with little disruption.

The key is efficiency and agility. The world of commercial cleaning is constantly evolving to suit flexible working patterns. Make sure your cleaners are using the most productive and discreet tools to get the maximum benefit.

Cordless tools such as backpack vacuums are 20% more efficient than corded, and are much more agile in their portability.

The most important factor is health and safety. The kit and tools need to be able to get the job done instantly and leave the office facilities ready for use almost immediately after cleaning. For example, using methods and tools that will leave floors instantly dry, or need very little time for drying, ensure that the business’ facilities aren’t restricted.

Innovation

Cleaning doesn’t just include in-person operators; a 24/7 business requires 24/7 cleaning.

Technology for commercial cleaning has skyrocketed since I first began, and it's this innovation that allows us to provide the best quality services in the least disruptive way. Our iVac 9b is just 58 decibels compared to a Henry hoover’s 72 decibels!

We also use small robotics that can maintain constant cleanliness between in person cleaning. This way, you and your colleagues can remain confident that your workplace is always clean!

Why does it matter?

The environment you provide for your employees has a direct effect on every aspect of their work.

By creating a positive space, free of clutter and sparkling clean, your workers can come in, regardless of the hour, and know they are entering a workplace they can feel comfortable in. Not only will this boost workplace wellbeing but you should see significant improvements in productivity.

In a 24/7 business, morale is key. Don’t forget about those employees coming in for the early morning shift, make your office the place to be at any time of the day!
