Considering Office Security When Hiring a Cleaning Company

There’s one area of a business that often goes overlooked when it comes to office security; the office’s cleaning company. Every office needs a cleaning crew to keep it looking clean and tidy. But, many forget how important it is to hire an office cleaning company that is trustworthy. With so many options in office cleaning in Minnetonka and the surrounding areas, it can be hard to know which office cleaning company you can depend on.

As a trusted name in office cleaning, we’d like to tell you more about what to look for when choosing a cleaning company.

Trustworthiness 

One of the most important qualities to look for in an office cleaning company is its trustworthiness. It offers a more secure office and the peace of mind knowing those cleaning your offices are licensed, bonded and vetted. After all, the office cleaning company will often be there after hours, so it’s important to know you can depend on them.

Security

It is essential to make sure the office cleaning company you choose is both licensed and bonded. If they are licensed, you know they have completed all the required education and training for their profession. This will also help insure that they are up-to-date on the latest industry trends and that they know all of the regulations required. A company that’s bonded means they have money set aside to settle any claims filed against them. This can give you, the customer, a sense of security in knowing that you have a safeguard.

Proof 

It is also important you ask to see documented proof of their licenses and bond. Keeping your office clean is important to the functionality of your business and choosing the right office cleaning company can also help keep it secure. Don’t settle for anyone with a floor buffer. Do your research and make sure you hire professionals who are trained and trustworthy.

Cleaning your windows will help by removing any dirt on the windows, making them more energy efficient. Also, cleaning out any dirt from in the sill will help your windows to seal more efficiently. Regular window washings also help to remove anything trapped on the glass from weakening it.

Flu & Allergy Season Prep: Tips for a Cleaner, Dust-Free Office

Viruses, dust and allergens can bring absentees to your business. Now that it is the end of summer, fall will soon be here bringing with it new allergens, flu bugs and more. How often do members of your team get sick? Whether it’s just allergies or a flu bug, germs and allergens can wreak havoc on your productivity. Consider commercial cleaning for your Minnetonka business and help keep your office clean and healthy. It is important that you create a rigorous schedule of dust and germ prevention to keep your air fresh and pure, your surfaces clean and your showroom or office ready for employees and customers.

All Source Building Services and Supply is a commercial cleaning company that can handle virtually every single aspect of upkeep that your company requires. Our cleaning service can keep your office spotless and clean.

We’ve put together a list of some of the most important cleaning tasks to tackle in order to keep your business dust and germ free all season long. And, if you’d like our commercial cleaning company to take care of any of these, please give us a call and let us know how we can help!

Wipe & Sanitize

Clean and wipe surfaces after you have finished using them. Keep a steady supply of hand sanitizer on hand, at your desk as well as other public areas to eliminate germ transmission. Wash your hands before leaving the bathroom, coughing and/or sneezing, handling doorknobs that many people use.

Dusting

This old stand-by is essential to keeping the office dust-free. But, not just any dusting will do. Make sure dusting is thorough and is not simply moving dust around. Microfiber cloths are designed to help trap dust. Use on virtually all surfaces within the business.

Mopping

A thorough mopping after vacuuming will help grab any dust or grime missed.

Vacuuming

It is recommended to vacuum at least twice a week to reduce dust in your home or business. Make sure it is equipped with a high-efficiency particulate air filter to ensure its focus is on dust. And, the filter must be changed frequently to ensure dust does not go back into the air. A professional commercial cleaning company like All Source knows the right way to vacuum for dust-grabbing results.

Cushion & Rug Cleaning

Do this monthly. Be sure to do this outside. Use a broom or similar until you no longer see particles leaving the item.


Don’t have the time for some of these? Consider hiring a professional commercial cleaning company like All Source Building Services & Supply Co. Let us get rid of the allergens and germs while you worry about getting the job done. Could your Minnetonka business use commercial cleaning? Give us a call at 952-473-3228 or Contact Us.

Our Janitorial Services Will Keep You Clean!

The brass tacks of running your business involve tasks and procedures that allow you to move continuously forward and generate revenue. There is also the trash, dusting, mopping, vacuuming and the like that needs to be taken care of. Who handles the cleaning? Your employees? Employees that are receptionists or data entry clerks? Is cleaning a way that you yourself or the employees that you oversee should be spending their time at the office or warehouse? Isn’t the goal to grow the business by conducting business? Don’t continue to waste your time and that of your workers. Bring in a worthy janitorial services company to Roseville area businesses like All Source.

Your office contains a reception area, shopping space, or bullpen that you have to spend time worrying about the upkeep of. Keeping a clean set up allows all who visit (regardless of purpose) see that you do indeed care about the way your present. The accumulated time spent by whomever it is on staff that would otherwise be spent doing something productive as it actually pertains to their job title in the form of cleaning is wasted.

Bringing in a janitorial services company like All Source allows you to give time back to the business itself. In fact, you are in effect buying time (in the money you spend on janitorial services) because the cleaning professionals we provide come and handle these tasks. You no longer have to do or delegate cleaning jobs. You are free to pursue other interests, business or pleasure. 

We can adjust or modify our janitorial services to handle additional on-site needs as well. Other tasks that also take people away from work like keeping the supply closet stocked, the bathroom clean and loaded with expected implements among other things can be tackled by our willing and able janitorial services crew.

A clean office creates a much better environment for workers and clients both. One less thing to worry about so that you can deal with other concerns. If you would like to know just how bringing in one of our janitorial services teams to your business can be catered to meet your exact needs even down to scheduling, all it takes is a phone call. Run your needs by us and we will put together an estimate and even get you on our regular schedule if you so choose.
