At the same time, a complex facility contract is not worth it for just a few workstations. That is why <strong>cleaning a small office in Z\u00fcrich<\/strong> calls for a clear cleaning plan \u2013 rather than vague promises like \u201ceverything will be clean\u201d. In this post, we show what such a plan looks like and what you should agree on in advance.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Quick request:<\/strong> send your location, preferred date and 2\u20133 photos via WhatsApp to <a href=\"https:\/\/wa.me\/41787471514\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">+41 78 747 15 14<\/a>.<\/p><h2 class='wp-block-heading'>Why a cleaning plan is better than a flat rate<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A written cleaning plan sets out which tasks are done and how often. This has several advantages:<\/p><ul class='wp-block-list'><li>You know exactly what you are paying for.<\/li><li>The cleaning team knows what is expected.<\/li><li>Deviations are easy to spot and discuss.<\/li><li>The plan can be adjusted when your office changes.<\/li><\/ul><h2 class='wp-block-heading'>Example: weekly plan for a small office<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The following plan is an example for a small office with a few workstations, a kitchenette and a toilet. We set the frequency and scope together with you.<\/p><figure class='wp-block-table'><table><thead><tr><th>Area<\/th><th>Every cleaning<\/th><th>Weekly<\/th><th>Monthly \/ as agreed<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Workstations<\/td><td>Wipe clear desk surfaces, empty wastepaper baskets<\/td><td>Dust chairs, lamps, screen edges<\/td><td>Chair legs, cable ducts<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Floors<\/td><td>Vacuum walkways<\/td><td>Vacuum and damp-mop all floors<\/td><td>Under furniture, skirting boards<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Kitchenette<\/td><td>Wash up or load\/unload the dishwasher, rubbish<\/td><td>Cupboard fronts, outside of fridge, outside of coffee machine<\/td><td>Inside of fridge, inside of cupboards<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Toilet<\/td><td>Toilet, washbasin, mirror, check supplies<\/td><td>Tiles, door handles, floor thoroughly<\/td><td>Descaling, ventilation grilles<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Meeting room<\/td><td>Wipe table, tidy up<\/td><td>Chairs, whiteboard edge<\/td><td>Window sills<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>General<\/td><td>Door handles and light switches<\/td><td>Entrance area, coat rack<\/td><td>Windows, frames and blinds on request<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><h3 class='wp-block-heading'>Kitchen and toilet: this is where impressions are made<\/h3><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Employees and visitors often judge how clean an office is by its kitchenette and toilet. That is why these areas are part of every cleaning. Clarify in advance who provides supplies such as toilet paper, soap and bin bags, and where they are stored.<\/p><h2 class='wp-block-heading'>Key arrangements<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So that cleaning can take place outside office hours by arrangement, clear rules are needed:<\/p><ul class='wp-block-list'><li>Key or badge with a written handover<\/li><li>Alarm system: code and procedure for arming and disarming<\/li><li>Rooms that should not be entered or cleaned<\/li><li>Contact person for questions<\/li><li>Rules for windows, lights and doors when leaving<\/li><\/ul><h2 class='wp-block-heading'>Quality control without much effort<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Simple checks are worthwhile even in a small office. These have proven effective:<\/p><ul class='wp-block-list'><li>the cleaning plan as a shared reference<\/li><li>a fixed contact person on both sides<\/li><li>quick feedback via WhatsApp or email if something stands out<\/li><li>an occasional joint walk-through to adjust the plan<\/li><\/ul><h2 class='wp-block-heading'>What is included \u2013 and what is not?<\/h2><h3 class='wp-block-heading'>Included according to the cleaning plan<\/h3><ul class='wp-block-list'><li>Workstations, floors, kitchenette, toilet and meeting room<\/li><li>Emptying wastepaper baskets and bins<\/li><li>Door handles, light switches and frequently touched surfaces<\/li><\/ul><h3 class='wp-block-heading'>Not included<\/h3><ul class='wp-block-list'><li>Tidying up documents on desks<\/li><li>Cleaning the inside of IT equipment<\/li><li>Disposal of hazardous waste or electronic waste<\/li><\/ul><h2 class='wp-block-heading'>What determines the price?<\/h2><ul class='wp-block-list'><li>Floor area and number of rooms<\/li><li>Number of workstations, toilets and kitchens<\/li><li>Cleaning frequency<\/li><li>Scope of the cleaning plan<\/li><li>Floor coverings and access<\/li><li>Time window, e.g. outside office hours by arrangement<\/li><\/ul><h2 class='wp-block-heading'>Checklist for your request<\/h2><ul class='wp-block-list'><li>Address and approximate floor area<\/li><li>Number of rooms, workstations, toilets and kitchens<\/li><li>Preferred frequency and time window<\/li><li>Special requests (e.g. windows, meeting rooms after events)<\/li><li>Key and alarm arrangements<\/li><li>Who provides supplies?<\/li><li>2\u20133 photos of the kitchen, toilet and work area<\/li><\/ul><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can find more about our services on our <a href=\"https:\/\/househelper.ch\/en\/office-cleaning-zurich\/\">office cleaning Z\u00fcrich<\/a> page and on our German page <a href=\"https:\/\/househelper.ch\/buroreinigung\/\">B\u00fcroreinigung<\/a>.
