It’s important to make sure every part of your Melbourne retail store is clean with the help of a professional commercial cleaner
Last time we talked about how maintaining a clean store is key to attracting more new customers and running a successful Melbourne retail business. But the parts of the store where customers can’t see shouldn’t be ignored either. Maintaining a clean and safe work environment for your staff is just as important. A clean retail store also means more productive and happy staff; no one likes working in a dirty and messy environment.
Now that you know the importance of keeping the back of your Melbourne retail store clean and tidy, here’s a checklist to get you started with:
- Stairways; while most people understand the importance of keeping their Melbourne retail stores clean and tidy, stairways are often neglected. A stairway with a lot of clutter can lead to unwanted accidents.
- Pick up any litters
- Dust and polish ledges, handrails, and fixtures
- Sweep and mop or vacuum stairs and landings
- Storerooms; your merchandise might get damaged if you don’t pay attention to the cleanliness of your storerooms.
- Empty rubbish bins
- Dust shelves, furniture, and fixtures
- Clean air vents
- Clean any windows
- Clean door handles
- Sweep and mop floors
- Back office; a clean and tidy workplace increases productivity and employees satisfaction. Happier employees mean happier customers.
- Empty rubbish bins
- Clean all glass surfaces
- Dust, wipe, and polish furnitures
- Sanitise frequently touched items
- Declutter and organise tables and desks
- Mop hard floor surfaces
- Vacuum carpet areas
- Breakroom; most staff spend the majority of their time in the workplace, so it’s important to provide a clean and welcoming space for them to rest and take breaks.
- Throw out expired foods from the fridge
- Empty rubbish bins
- Clean and sanitise countertops and sinks
- Clean cupboards, drawers, and fridge
- Clean microwaves
- Clean door handles
- Mop and sweep floors
