Finding your perfect match

Keeping your Airbnb sparkling clean is crucial for attracting guests and earning rave reviews. But between guest turnovers, managing laundry, and deep cleaning, the cleaning workload can quickly become overwhelming. 

That’s where hiring a professional cleaning company comes in. But with so many options available, choosing the right one can feel daunting. Worry not, weary host! This guide will equip you with the knowledge and tools to find the perfect cleaning partner for your short-let.

Know your needs

Before diving into the search, take a moment to define your cleaning requirements. Consider factors like:

  1. Property size and type: Studio flat or five-bedroom mansion? Different sizes require different levels of service.
  2. Guest turnover rate: Weekly rentals necessitate more frequent cleans than monthly ones.
  3. Cleaning frequency: Standard cleans, deep cleans, linen changes – what do you need regularly?
  4. Budget: Determine your comfortable spending range and stick to it.

Find & compare

Now it’s research time! Leverage online directories like Streo to browse cleaning companies in your area. Pay close attention to:

  1. Location: Proximity ensures quick turnaround times and easier communication.
  2. Experience: Look for companies specializing in short-term rental cleaning.
  3. Services offered: Do they cover your specific needs (laundry, deep cleaning)?
  4. Pricing: Compare quotes and packages to find the best value for your budget.
  5. Reviews and ratings: Read honest feedback from fellow Airbnb hosts.

Beyond the Basics

While the above factors are crucial, consider these additional gems for a truly informed decision:

  • Insurance and bonding: Ensure the company is insured for any potential mishaps.
  • Communication style: Clear and prompt communication is key to a smooth experience.
  • Flexibility: Can they accommodate last-minute bookings or schedule changes?
  • Green cleaning options: Are eco-friendly products and practices important to you?

Meet them in person

Before signing on the dotted line, schedule a consultation with your shortlisted companies. This allows you to:

  • Discuss your specific needs and expectations in detail.
  • Assess their professionalism and responsiveness.
  • Get a feel for their cleaning methods and products.
  • Ask any lingering questions and clarify concerns.

Remember: The best cleaning company is one that understands your unique needs and delivers consistent, high-quality service. By following these steps and investing time in the selection process, you’ll find the perfect partner to keep your Airbnb sparkling and your guests happy, setting your short-let business up for success!
