Shoppers judge a store in the first few seconds: the front glass, the floor and the fitting rooms. This is the list our crews work from in the shops and retail spaces we clean, built on the same routine we use in every business. Use it for your own team, or to compare cleaning quotes.
The retail store cleaning checklist
Storefront and entry
- Clean glass doors and entry glass
- Clean interior glass, including display cases you point out
- Disinfect door handles and other touch points
- Vacuum or mop the entry
Sales floor
- Wipe the counter and checkout area around your items
- Empty trash, wipe bins and replace liners
- Vacuum carpets, then vacuum and mop hard floors
Restrooms
- Clean and disinfect toilets, sinks and counters
- Clean mirrors
- Restock paper goods and soap you provide
- Empty trash and replace liners
Back room and break area
- Wipe counters, sink, table and chairs
- Clean inside and outside the microwave
- Wipe the outside of the fridge
- Empty trash
Every store is different, so we set the exact list with you before the first visit, including anything that stays off limits, like merchandise and stock.
When we clean
Before you open or after you close: as early as 6 AM or after 6 PM on weekdays (until 8 PM), or on Saturdays. Your customers never shop around a mop.
How it works
- A quote by square footage. No walk-through needed to price it. If you would like the crew to meet you and walk the store before the first clean, we can do that.
- A deep clean first. Every new space starts with every surface hand wiped and dusted, and all interior glass hand wiped.
- A text when we finish. The manager gets a completion text after every visit.
- Supplies tracked for you. We email a restock list each month, so you do not run out of paper goods.
- Your access rules. If you have your own access agreement, we sign yours.
