Tidying Tips Before We Arrive: How to Get the Most Out of Your Professional Cleaning!
At Mint Maids, our goal is to leave your home spotless, fresh, and sparkling clean. But did you know that a little tidying up (especially those high traffic areas)before we arrive can help us focus on the deeper cleaning tasks? With a few simple steps, you can help us maximize the results of your professional cleaning session. Here are some quick tidying tips to prepare your home before we come!
1. Clear the Clutter
One of the best ways to help us get straight to the cleaning is by clearing away surface clutter. Whether it’s toys, clothes, or random items on countertops, tables, dressers, and end tables tidying up these areas ensures that we can focus on wiping and sanitizing surfaces, rather than organizing. Grab a basket or bin to quickly collect stray items and set them aside to be sorted later.
2. Put Away Papers
If you have loose papers piled up on a counter, office or workspaces stack them up . When you’ve got more time - you can go through them! It helps to give us space to work more efficiently.
3. Wash and Stow Dishes
Dirty dishes in the sink or on the countertops can create obstacles when we’re trying to clean your kitchen. If you have time, load the dishwasher or hand-wash any dishes and stow them away. This way, we can fully clean your sink, counters, and surrounding areas without any interruptions.
4. Tidy Up the Floors
While our team will thoroughly clean your floors, removing toys, shoes, or any small objects beforehand can help us get started right away. This is especially helpful in high-traffic areas like living rooms, hallways, or kids' rooms. Moving larger items out of the way also makes vacuuming and mopping more effective.
5. Your Pets - We love them!
We love pets, but we want them safe and comfortable while we are there. If your furry baby gets scared of the vacuum, is an escape artist or skittish of having strangers moving around their home - Let us know! Perhaps they need to be in a room that we would not go into. We love when they interact with us, however their comfort level matters too!
5.. Let Us Know About Any Special Requests
If you have specific areas of your home that need extra attention or if there’s something you want us to avoid, let us know before we arrive. Clear communication helps us tailor the cleaning to your needs and ensure you’re satisfied with the results.
Final Thoughts
We’re here to make your life easier, and a little tidying before we arrive can help us do just that. By taking these small steps, you’re allowing us to focus on the deep cleaning that makes your home shine. Remember, it doesn’t have to be perfect—just a quick tidy-up to get ready for a professional clean.
