Step-by-step guide to get the most out of your cleaning service
Hiring a professional deep cleaning service is a great way to refresh your home, eliminate built-up dirt, and enjoy a healthier, more comfortable space. But did you know there are a few simple things you can do beforehand to help the team work more efficiently?
This guide walks you through how to prepare your home before your cleaners arrive—so you get the best results with zero stress.
✅ 1. Communicate Your Priorities
Every home is unique, and so are your cleaning needs. Before the appointment, let the team know:
- Areas you want extra attention on (bathrooms, kitchen, behind furniture, etc.)
- Spaces you’d prefer they avoid (private rooms, fragile decor)
- Any allergies or preferences for eco-friendly products
💬 Clear communication ensures a customized and efficient service.
🛋️ 2. Move Small and Fragile Items
Although professionals are careful, it’s best to:
- Put away jewelry, photo frames, small decorations, chargers, or loose cables
- Clear surfaces like desks, countertops, and tables
This saves time and reduces the risk of accidents.
🧸 3. Store Personal Belongings
To protect your privacy and belongings:
- Safely store any intimate or valuable items such as underwear, medications, documents, or cash
- Declutter bathrooms and bedrooms if you want a thorough cleaning in those areas
🐶 4. Secure Your Pets
If you have pets, make sure to:
- Keep them in a separate room or take them out during the service
- Let the cleaners know if there are any pet-free zones
This helps avoid stress for your pet and distractions for the team.
🚪 5. Ensure Easy Access
Be sure to:
- Leave keys or access codes if you won’t be home
- Clear paths to stairs, hallways, or outdoor areas like patios and garages
🧽 6. Don’t Clean—Just Tidy
No need to clean before the cleaners arrive (that’s what they’re there for!). But it is helpful to:
- Pick up toys, clothes, or clutter from the floor
- Empty sinks and basins if you want them cleaned properly
✨ 7. Trust the Process
Once everything’s ready, sit back and relax. Professional cleaning teams are trained to treat your home with care, efficiency, and respect.
