When you first sit down to find a good janitor service, the first step is to make two separate lists.

On the first list:

Write down the minimum services you need for your business. For example you may need vacuuming, bathroom cleaning, trash removal, etc.

On the second list:

List of all the additional services you would like the janitorial service to offer. Perhaps you would like them to offer carpet & curtain & upholstery cleaning. But if they don’t it doesn’t mean you won’t hire them because you can always hire a separate company to do these things when they are needed.

When you call and talk to different janitor services, keep the lists with you and keep track of which janitor service can meet your needs. Some specialize and only service hospitals or manufacturing plants for instance. Since this is the first step, weed out any janitor services that can’t meet your business needs or standards.

Set appointments with 2 to 5 companies to give you an accurate written estimate. We suggest a minimum of 2 companies, and a maximum of five. It may be a good idea to ask other local businesses or associates whom they higher, and who they would recommend. Be sure when you do make a decision, that the company is reputable and can meet the needs of your business.
