Keeping Office Restrooms, Kitchens and Conference Rooms Ready

The areas people notice first

Visitors may not notice a clean desk, but they will notice a messy restroom, a crowded kitchen sink or a conference room left after the last meeting.

Practical steps

• Schedule midday restroom checks on busy days
• Reset kitchens after lunch, not only at night
• Turn conference rooms over between client meetings
• Keep supplies stocked with a simple par-level list

When to add a day porter

If your office hosts clients daily or has more than one floor, a day porter is usually the most cost-effective way to keep these areas ready all day.
