'''Deep cleaning is the process of taking a room out of a hotel's salable inventory and thoroughly cleaning it to more exacting standards than is normally performed during the daily housekeeping maintenance.''

Process Street's Deep Cleaning Checklist has been specifically designed to work as a guide for housekeepers to standardize the hotel room deep cleaning process, making the process consistently efficient.

The 'Deep Cleaning Checklist' template has summarized and organized the deep cleaning process into a series of steps outlined below:

Turn the Mattresses and Change the Bedspread

Dust High and Hard to Reach Areas

Clean Window Glass and Draperies

Clean Walls, Carpets and Doors

Clean TV and Other Electronics

Clean Light Shades and Fire Exit Map

Clean Furniture

Clean Bathroom

With cleanliness comes quality. The focus of the hotel industry is to create a positive experience for the customer. It goes without saying hygienic, serene, pleasant and welcoming surroundings will significantly contribute to achieving this.

84% of travelers rated cleanliness as 'very important' when choosing hotel accommodation.

Ensuring your hotel is clean is not only about obtaining good customer reviews. Poor sanitation can lead to the transmission of disease, such as fungal and bacterial infections.

The 'Deep Cleaning Checklist' standardizes the process of deep cleaning rooms. This checklist acts as a guide, ensuring steps are not forgotten. Checking off each task as it is being completed within a checklist, has been shown to increase the efficiency and productivity of any given process.

In this Deep Cleaning Checklist, you will be presented with a set of specialized questions designed to make sure the deep cleaning process runs smoothly. The questions are given as sub checklists, short answers, or yes/no drop-down menus. Certain questions have been conditioned to guide you through the correct process path for the specific circumstance.

Each task in this checklist is characterized as a 'stop' task, meaning subsequent tasks cannot be completed until the specific 'stop' task is. This ensures essential cleaning tasks are carried out.

Tasks are checked off when completed. The opportunity to leave notes for each task is also presented. Notes are compiled at the end into a deep cleaning report. In addition, the deep clean summary can be sent to relevant personnel at the end by email if required.
