When you move your business into a new office or shop, there is a lot to think about. You will need to get office supplies and furniture as well as kitchen supplies. You will also need someone to clean the place. When a client comes into your office, one of the first things they will notice is the cleanliness and quality of the space. A sloppy office may be perceived as a direct reflection of the work you will perform. You have a few options for cleaning your office and before you decide what to do, you may want to consider the benefits of them each.

Have the Employees Clean Up

If you have a small business, you may have considered letting your workers clean up after themselves or have turns doing various chores. You may want to take into consideration how good of a job your computer programer or secretary will do if they are required to clean in addition to their job. If they refuse to do any cleaning other than their personal desk, there is pretty much nothing you can do about it. 

Hire Independent Cleaners off of Craigslist or a Similar Site

You could just post an ad on a website for a person to clean your office, however,  you will be saddled with the task of checking references and making sure they are properly trained to clean your office. You will either have to hire them as an employee or make an independent contractor agreement with them. You may want to make sure that you only employ cleaners who are United States citizens. Hiring illegal immigrants comes with hefty fines in the state of Florida.

Hire A Commercial Cleaning Company

A commercial cleaning company may cost a bit more initially, but it is sure to pay off in the long run. A professional company will be able to offer you a contract specifying exactly what they will do every time they visit your office. The cost of each service will also be itemized in each visit and the contract can also state any periodic services that will be performed. 

A professional cleaning company will have the equipment that you or an individual you hire online are unlikely to have. They will bring their own cleaning products and they may even have a line of products that they use in their work. They will understand the difference between cleaning home and cleaning a business.

Equipment

A professional cleaning company will have commercial vacuum cleaners and their own carpet cleaning equipment. You can make arrangements for them to do deep cleanings on a periodic basis. Some companies may be able to arrange for such things as window washing and HOA cleaning. 

Training 

A worthwhile cleaning company will have a tested system for performing different tasks. They will make sure each of their employees goes through a training program. When you interview a potential company, you should ask what kind of training the people who will be cleaning your office have undergone.

A clean desk may be the sign of a sick mind, but a clean office is the sign of a company that plans ahead and works hard. A commercial cleaning service can make sure your office is a reflection of your business and the work you do.
