Are you considering outsourcing your commercial cleaning needs? Before you make a decision, beware of these common pitfalls that could leave your workspace in shambles:
1️⃣ Choosing Based Solely on Price: While budget is important, don’t sacrifice quality for a lower price tag. Cheap cleaning services often result in subpar results and hidden costs down the line.
2️⃣ Ignoring Credentials: Always verify the credentials and certifications of the cleaning company you’re considering. Entrusting your space to untrained or uninsured cleaners can lead to liability issues and unsatisfactory outcomes.
3️⃣ Overlooking References: Don’t skip the step of checking references and reading reviews. Hearing from past clients about their experiences can give you valuable insights into the reliability and professionalism of a cleaning company. Selecting the incorrect cleaning service can jeopardize both your business and the well-being of your employees.
4️⃣ Failing to Check for Liability Insurance: Never hire a company that doesn’t carry liability insurance. Although they may charge a cheaper rate, accidents happen.
One accident or mishap on your property can result in a lawsuit against your business. An uninsured cleaning company may not be financially stable or able to pay for broken items or damage to your property. That leaves you or your insurance paying the bill for their negligence. Most reputable cleaning companies carry multiple types of insurance, including liability coverage.
It’s in your best interest to hire an experienced company that can offer proof of insurance coverage. This information may be available on their website. If not, don’t hesitate to ask.
5️⃣ Disregarding Communication: Effective communication is key to a successful partnership. Avoid companies that are difficult to reach or unresponsive to your inquiries, as this can lead to frustration and dissatisfaction.
6️⃣ Neglecting Green Practices: In today’s environmentally conscious world, opting for a cleaning company that prioritizes eco-friendly practices is crucial. Avoid companies that use harsh chemicals harmful to both your health and the planet. Check if the company is using products typically either certified by Green Seal, Ecologo, EPA’s Safer Choice, and/or The Carpet and Rug Institute.
7️⃣ Skipping the Walkthrough: Never hire a commercial cleaning company without conducting a thorough walkthrough of your space. This allows the cleaners to assess the scope of work accurately and provide you with an accurate quote. A professional cleaning service will assess your needs and inspect your workspace before offering a quote for their services.
8️⃣ Locking into Annual Contracts: We believe in earning your business, not trapping you in a contract. Our agreement allows you to cancel at any time for any reason without penalties. We simply request a 15-day notice to allow for a smooth transition of equipment and staff reallocation.
