Before the cleaner starts
Confirm checkout and arrival windows, keys or smart-lock access, alarms, parking, linen, rubbish and consumables. Record damage or missing items separately from cleaning and secure valuables. Do not ask a cleaner to handle sharps, bodily fluids, hazardous waste, pests or repairs without the appropriate provider and controls.
Living areas and bedrooms
Remove ordinary rubbish, dust reachable surfaces, vacuum floors and upholstery where suitable, check under movable furniture and reset agreed furnishings. Launder or replace linen according to care labels, inspect mattress protectors and report damage rather than hiding it. Keep electronics dry and follow manufacturer instructions for screens and devices.
Kitchen and bathroom checklist
Clean food-contact benches, sinks, taps, appliance exteriors, cooktops, bins and the refrigerator according to their care instructions. In bathrooms, clean toilets, showers, baths, basins, mirrors, floors and touchpoints using material-compatible products. Avoid acids on stone, excessive water near joinery and mixed chemicals anywhere.
Final guest-ready check
Confirm ventilation, dry floors, replace agreed consumables, check odour sources and close windows or doors as instructed. Use photographs or a checklist to record completed rooms and maintenance issues. Dirt2Tidy can quote Airbnb cleaning from the property size, turnover window, access and requested inclusions.
