Sure, we’ve all been there and heard it all about the office cleaning, what is important and what isn’t. Still, it’s good to keep repeating some things sometimes, right?
Office cleaning as a whole is essential to maintaining a nice looking working environment clear of any health risks. And we all know just how important both of those things are. Nice looking office makes a great first impression on your (potential) clients when they first step into your building. Well, not just first, each and every time they come. And, if at all of those times they are greeted by friendly staff and squeaky clean office, they will have no problem in coming back. Also, it’s not just about the clients. It’s also about the people who are spending the most time in the office – the employees. They will feel much better and inclined to perform their best if they are surrounded by clean and nice looking office space. So, it’s a game with no losers, everybody wins, you, the clients, and the employees. Hurray for clean offices!
So then, what do we mean by cleaning the office as a whole? Precisely that, cleaning it as a whole, meaning leaving nothing behind. And there are many elements of the office in question – carpets, chairs, upholstery and, yes, office cubicles. So many times the first thing that comes to our mind when we think about office cleaning are carpets and chairs. And so many times upholstery and, especially, office cubicles are somehow forgotten. Thus the name of today’s post: office cubicles – the office cleaning underdogs. Because they really are the office cleaning underdogs. And they are being used on a daily basis, just as much as office carpets and chairs. And they do participate in the overall look of the space. Remember what we said earlier, cleaning is essential to maintaining a nice looking working environment clear of any health risks. That counts for our underdogs, too.
We always think about vacuuming the carpets, cleaning the chairs and tables, making sure there is no dirt in sight, but, trust us, there is dirt on those cubicles, as well. So, how to make sure they are not left behind? How to make sure they are included in the cleaning process? Well, that is where a good professional cleaning service steps in. If you make sure to find reputable professionals to perform the cleaning, you won’t have to worry about anything being left behind. Experienced cleaning technicians will make sure of that. They will come and inspect the space and present you with all the facts so you can see the whole picture. They will make sure to inform you about all the necessary cleaning tasks. Your only task will be to work on a cleaning schedule with them so that the cleaning wouldn’t interrupt your regular daily activities at the office. Simple as that.
For example, we at Geyen Group South don’t just clean your office carpets, we offer a variety of cleaning services that will leave your office perfectly clean and health risk-free. That is why we include services such as commercial carpet cleaning, commercial upholstery cleaning and fabric panel cleaning. Yes, fabric panel cleaning, to make sure your office cubicles aren’t your office underdogs. Hurray for the underdogs!
But now, let’s see why it is important for office cubicle not to be your office underdogs. Why should we clean them and how? Are they really that important to be included in the cleaning process?
First of all, by keeping your office cubicles clean you will reduce the number of indoor allergens. Bear in mind, the fabric in the cubicles will hold dust and dirt, unfortunately, which can ultimately lead to a flare-up of allergies, especially in those prone to them. Trust us, if you don’t clean them regularly, even those not prone to allergies could potentially get sick.
Second, if you don’t get your office cubicles regularly and professionally cleaned, you risk having them look dirty and stained. And those stains, if left unattended, will be really hard to eventually clean. Trust us, really hard. People eat and drink at their desks, so there is bound to be some food stains and spills. Those can be pretty disgusting to look at, but the bigger issue is that they are the perfect ground for bacteria and bad smells.
And third, by cleaning your office cubicles regularly you will control dust mites. They can be found in any type of fabric, so even in the one in your office cubicles. They are also easily transferable from one space to another on people’s clothing. And who would want something like that at the office?
Like all the other office elements, cubicles demand both daily cleanings as well as deep cleaning by professional cleaning service. By daily cleaning, we mean occasionally dusting them and cleaning some stains. But, make sure you have them professionally clean, preferably once a quarter. The cleaning technicians will also give you some tips on how to keep them in optimum conditions between their visits. Perhaps they will suggest a protective coating to be put on the fabric or they will add some during one of the scheduled cleaning visits. With the right cleaning service, you won’t have to worry about the details. They will make sure to explain everything and to help you keep everything under control between the cleanings.
So, office cubicles – the office cleaning underdogs, are they really? As we’ve seen in today’s story, they can be, unfortunately. But, like any other part of your office, they deserve the same cleaning treatment, so please, don’t forget them. If you include them in your office cleaning routine, you will see the difference in the appearance of your working area. Only by cleaning the office as a whole you will get the best result possible. And the result will be a perfectly clean and maintained office, beautiful to look, beautiful to visit and beautiful to work at. Hurray for the office cleaning underdogs!
