The fun seasonal tradition of the Holiday Office Party is a welcome break from the regular work routine and a perfect time to build and strengthen office camaraderie and teamwork. But a good party also involves planning, organization and cleaning.

Soft surface cleaning refers to the cleaning of carpets and any fabric, leather or vinyl upholstered furnishings, divider panels or window coverings. Just like carpeting, soft surfaces need to be vacuumed and cleaned to keep them free of dirt, dust, and accumulated allergens.

If you’re like most office managers and business owners, you are always looking for ways to save money and increase efficiency. One way to do both is by using office floor mats. Your office flooring is a major investment, and floor mats, especially in winter, provide a protective barrier between your floors and foot traffic in high-usage areas. They also protect against slipping and falling, making them an indispensable safety element for every work environment.

Fall means back to school for the kids and back to work after summer vacation for adults, too. And while we usually think of the term, “spring cleaning,” fall is an equally preferred season for workplace and office cleaning because many organizational chores and cleaning tasks were put off during the summer months.

Although spring is commonly considered the best time to do annual cleaning, even in the workplace, summer cleaning makes more sense—when workloads are generally lighter, and many employees are away from the office on vacation.

When it comes to cleaning and maintaining your commercial property, the focus may often be more on your facility’s interior. However, the exterior of your building and surrounding property requires equal attention, especially because it is often the first impression made on visitors and customers.

In a busy workplace, office kitchen cleaning can often be overlooked or difficult to ‘keep on top of’. Employees focused on their work schedules are generally too rushed during breaks to take the time to clean up properly. The kitchen area can quickly become an unsanitary and unattractive environment with dirty dishes, food debris and overflowing trash. The office kitchen can sometimes become more unhygienic than the washroom.
