Summer Cleaning Checklist for Government Buildings
May 15, 2023 | AUTHOR: Office Pride
When schools dismiss students for summer vacation, that also means it’s time for government employees to take their family vacations.
That translates to empty offices, limited staff and nearly vacant parking lots.
Those months when government buildings are on a limited staffing schedule provide the perfect opportunity to get organized and develop a summer cleaning checklist.
Making Your List
Whether local, state or federal, government buildings serve as hubs for taxpayers to seek service and assistance, which can generate substantial traffic in areas where unwanted and harmful bacteria can build up. There are many places within a government building where different types of deep cleaning are needed, and Office Pride’s cleaning teams can help.
Scrubbing floors, dusting, cleaning air ducts, deep cleaning of offices, waiting rooms, restrooms and other common areas, and disinfecting computers and other electronics should all be on your cleaning checklist during this time. Office Pride cleaning staffs work closely with each customer to develop a customized plan and offer expanded services to address the unique needs of your public-facing facilities.
Office Pride’s system also goes beyond cleaning for looks. Sure, you want government employees to be proud of where they work, but it’s vital to make sure that goes beyond shiny floors and keeps the public’s good health at the forefront.
Dividing Your Cleaning Zones
Government buildings can be vast networks of hallways, meeting rooms, offices and common areas. Dividing up your areas into zones can help tackle large jobs with targeted cleaning solutions.
Building administrators, working with Office Pride’s highly trained teams, can select the level of sanitization and disinfection services that meet their needs.
Healthy Clean
Our traditional, high-quality Healthy Clean package cleans and disinfects high-touch surfaces throughout the common areas of your building.
Superior Clean
Our Superior Clean package includes benefits of our Healthy Clean package, in addition to cleaning and disinfecting high-touch surfaces in personal workspaces and offices.
Premium Clean
Our Premium Clean package includes all aspects of our other packages, plus deep cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting hard-to-reach surfaces and other areas of the building complex.
The deep cleaning of flooring, including tile, laminate, linoleum and carpet can also be done during summer break to keep your floors looking shiny and new, at least until your full staff returns.
Electrostatic spraying can be used to disinfect common areas, personal areas and hard-to-reach spaces. Electrostatic sprayers are vital in the fight against the spread of germs that cause COVID-19, flu and other respiratory illnesses.
Other basic janitorial services can also be carried out at this time and should be done at regular intervals. Services such as sweeping and vacuuming, mopping, restroom sanitization, dusting, blind cleaning and glass cleaning are all important services to maintain.
