Cleaning your AirBnB rental apartment is a big decision to make. Guest will need the highest of quality, and as a Host ( or AirBnB super host) You have a couple AirBnB cleaning options to choose from: Hire one of the AirBnB Cleaning Companies in your local area, or do it yourself.
- You clean your home yourself. If you are like most people in Calgary and you are doing AirBnB rentals on the side, you may lack the necessary AirBnB cleaning experience. Cleaning your AirBnB apartment yourself can present a lot of problems. For example, since you have a local Calgary job, and its your main source of income, you will find you are constantly running back to your AirBnB or short-term rental, to clean it, in the least opportunistic times. So will you rush the details oriented cleaning procedure? Or will you omit certain areas that need special attention? If so, then this becomes problematic and you will start having bad AirBnB reviews, or you will end up having to cancel bookings due to your busy schedule. This can become costly and in turn lose you money.
- You can hire a professional cleaning company that has over 5 years of AirBnB cleaning experience. This option presents more ease for you as the owner, and a more structured, reliable cleaning experience. This way you can relax and know your apartment or house is being taken care of by a professional AirBnB cleaning company. This option also gives the guest the satisfaction that the cleaning job was done professionally and right. Everyone has different versions of clean, but AirBnB has strict cleaning standards that Hosts must adhere to. By using a cleaning company in Calgary, you can ensure you meet the cleaning benchmarks set out for you by the hospitality business.
SAFETY ALERT: Never put your hand, or any object, inside the garbage disposal to free up stuck items
Now that you have chosen from one of the two options we can discuss the cleaning of the unit. Whether you do the cleaning yourself or you hire an Airbnb cleaning company, you need to make sure you thoroughly clean your unit. Nothing ruins your unit like bad reviews about cleanliness. Creating a cleaning checklist for yourself/cleaning company will help the process go smoothly.
Your cleaning checklist should consist of the following;
- cleaning the entire bathroom from top to bottom. The bathroom is one of the dirtiest places In a home and get used the most. The room needs extra care while cleaning to make sure all the hair, stains, and smell are gone from the previous AirBnB guest. There’s nothing like a dirty washroom to deter guests from your beautiful home. Cleanliness in bathrooms is a top priority
- Cleaning the kitchen; this room get a lot of big spills, some people try to clean their messes, but not all. This area needs extra care as food stains are one of the hardest to get off surfaces. Make sure to clean the cupboards, handles, appliances, under appliances, dish washer outside, inside and outside the fridge, empty the coffee maker and kettle, the floors swept and mopped, and lastly the sink. You don’t want any food particles left from your previous guest.
- The rest of your home will be a surface clean. All surfaces in your home, couches vacuumed, carpets vacuumed, inside of drawers wiped and outside of dresser wiped, walls wiped if visibly dirty, and sheets and towels washed for new guests.
