Hiring a Reputable Disinfecting Service

 

Businesses everywhere are doing all they can to combat the Covid-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, during times of panic and uncertainty, scammers can take advantage of desperation and promise your company or business something that they simply cannot deliver. That is why it is imperative to hire a reputable disinfecting service for your office. 

Once you select one, use online resources to find and research the commercial cleaning service you intend to hire. Here are some tips to help you find a reputable disinfecting service for your office or business:

 

Research Their Reputation Online

Good commercial cleaning services are proud of their online reviews and their local word-of-mouth endorsements. You should be wary of any disinfecting service that does not display reviews directly on their website. They should also have their services and experience clearly listed and outlined to give you an idea what to expect from them.

 

Ask for References

Reputable disinfecting services will have ongoing relationships with other local businesses. You should ask the company you intend to hire for a list of references so you can find out for yourself what their clients think of their services. Good commercial cleaning services will proudly provide these to you. Handing the keys to your office or building over to people outside the company requires trust, and asking for references is a good way to gage how trustworthy this disinfecting service and their employees are.

 

Conduct a Face-to-Face Interview

After you have selected what you believe to be a reputable disinfecting service, you should schedule an interview with them to find out more about their company. This can be in person or over video chat, but make sure you speak to someone face to face during this process.

Ask the interviewee questions like:

  • Are they insured?
  • Do they conduct thorough background checks?
  • Do they have a Quality Assurance Program?
  • Will they conduct a hazard assessment?

A reputable commercial cleaner will happily provide you this information before you agree to hire them.

 

Cost Considerations and Services

Finally, when trying to find a reputable disinfecting service, you should find out how much their services are going to cost your business and what to expect in return. While hiring a commercial cleaning service can be expensive, it will save your business money in the long run by preventing sick days, boosting employee morale, and providing someone onsite that is ready to respond should a COVID-19 outbreak occur.

The disinfecting service you ultimately hire should offer you a variety of services that will be tailor-made to meet your specific needs. Trusted vendors will have the experience necessary to address high-risk areas and offer other services such as:

  • Trash Management
  • Disinfecting Bathrooms
  • Dusting and Cleaning Surfaces
  • Restocking Sanitizer and Supplies
  • Offer Day Porters
  • Many Other Services
