Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching 😊
Very great video and tips
Glad it was helpful!
Amazing! Need more training videos. Idk what I'm doing 😂
We plan to keep them coming! 🙌
Sir so good
I’m a cleaner myself, and I also usually clean the backpack wall, the door handles, and light fixtures. But thanks for the video it helps me to get more of an understanding of how to clean properly.
Those are all definitely important to clean too! Thank you for your comment and for watching our videos!
Thanks friend. My job said it's your job to do the bathrooms now- go. I only had a small idea of what too do. Thanks again!
Glad we could help!
Thanks for the video, I usually sweep before i spray cleaning product but all in all thank you for the content
Thanks for watching!
I ALWAYS do trash first.. no matter what!
Great video...how do you store the soiled towels & what is the process from transporting to laundering dirty towels? Thanks for all the great info!!
Great question! Soiled towels are typically divided by their task and then laundered accordingly. For example, towels used to clean toilets, urinals, etc.. are placed into a dedicated plastic bag for transport and then washed together, separate from any other towels. The user can then run their washing machine to disinfect afterwards.
How long should it take to clean each restroom? Or how long does it take you to finish each
What would you recommend for cleaning multiple flooring types, for example tile & grout in restrooms, LVP in offices, & sealed concrete in lobby. Would you use a specialized chemical in each or one for all? How do you decide between traditional mopping vs flat mop in an area? Thanks for your great help & advice!!
A neutral cleaner will be your best bet. It will work for all the different surfaces you've mentioned. Waxie Solsta 210 is our choice. We are personally fans of microfiber loop mops. They are more effective in our opinion. Flat mops are great for in-between maintenance, but a loop mop will give you a deeper clean. Thanks for your question!
I don't know if I can get on board with using rags on the toilets...I clean a commercial building 5 days per week and most days there are at least a few very soiled toilet lids... I feel like I'd have to own a separate washer just to clean the toilet rags...
What's your opinion on using a couple sheets of the client's paper towels that are available in the bathroom, and then tossing them in the trash when done?
For heavily soiled toilets it can be beneficial to use paper towels initially and then following up with microfiber for disinfecting purposes. We don't recommend using paper towels regularly since they are not as cost effective as reusable microfiber towels. Our yellow microfibers (for toilets and urinals) are always laundered separately to get them as clean as possible for the next service.
Great video! How do you guys manage laundering your microfibers?
Thanks! Good question. We have a warehouse manager responsible for laundering microfiber. He also cleans our office, keeps our warehouse organized and maintains equipment and vehicles, so not just towels. Someone will drop towels off from the facility being cleaned and pick up new ones. We will wash what is delivered to prepare for the next week. We hope to share a video on this soon!
@@OctoCleanplease do! I know alot of people use paper towels to cleanrestrooms
In the scenario would you be using a custodial cart so that you can cart your soap and paper towels?
Yes! We actually would place the tote on top. Here is our janitorial cart set up video. You'll see the bathroom tote included on the tote along with paper products stored safely away from wet items. ruclips.net/video/Vk35Kd4xskI/видео.htmlsi=RrbHqK9iZsKQkyLZ
Just wondering where do the collected garbages go? Do cleaners throw it in the dumpster or bring it with you and you throw it in a designated spot? What about garbages that requires special disposal bin? Thank you.
It is up to the customer to provide a place to dispose of trash. During your walkthrough, always ask to see this area and make sure to get keys if required. In terms of special disposal bins, most offices will have a place for recycling or confidential waste and procedures for how they want that handled. Medical facilities will have biohazard waste procedures as well.
What about using paper towels to clean the rest room. And throw away when done.
You can use paper towels, but you will be spending a lot of money. Especially if you take on many accounts, it can become wasteful. Color coding microfiber and washing them separately is just as sanitary.
@@OctoClean do you take the dirty microfibers to a laundromat? Who takes care of that and what's that process like?
@@OctoCleanyou pay more when you pay someone to clean tiles.
@@MayaP-jk3dy I do..
I do that all the time. It stops cross contamination and handling dirty rags when doing laundry
Do you clean the walls and ceiling.
Good question! Anything above and below 6 feet we want to dust at least once a week.
How often it’s recommended dusting
Once a thorough cleaning has been done you want to dust at least once a week. In an office, daily.
hi don't you uses colour coded cloth red for bathroom and green for kitchen bedroom blue
Here is a link to a video that explains how we color code: ruclips.net/video/koLSWsdeJjE/видео.htmlsi=-1ftf0gktIDZOpT0
You use Acid in a toilet bowl regularly?
Depends on the product. Bathbrite isn't made for everyday use, more for tough stains or deep cleaning. Maybe biweekly, really depends on traffic. But Waxie's Kleen-Brite is a daily acid cleaner that is less abrasive and works well.
Do you leave toilet brushes in the customers restrooms?
Not typically, some customers will have one in a single use restroom but they are not common when cleaning staff is on sight.
You don’t just spray the disinfectant right on the chrome to give that dwell time too?
Yes we do. It wasn't captured on camera, but we do spray the facet with 315 disinfectant. Good catch! Thanks for watching!
@@OctoCleando you spray the toilets or sinks first?
Ever run into a toilet bowl that HCl and phosphoric acid couldn’t clean? I’ve got one with a bunch of stubborn stains, and acids have not been working their magic. Pumice would work but no one likes sticking their hands in there, ha.
The toilet with the plant growing out of it. If you know, you know. 😂 In all seriousness, if phosphoric doesn't work, we'd move to hydrochloric acid and then do exactly as you recommended. The pumice stone would be our last resort.
@@OctoClean 😂😂 I must be out of the know, but plants in the toilet sounds like a doozy. Pumice it is!
Give this a watch and you'll know what we're talking about 😂ruclips.net/video/5zRUvzsaiYU/видео.html
I always use gloves no matter what I'm doing in the bathroom. Not everyone washes their hands. Even as someone using a public restroom I don't touch anything after washing my hands. I open the door with a paper towel.
If your bowl cleaner needs to sit, why not do that first?
If you do the mirror first you are apt to spray it again when spraying your sink.
You took out the garbage then put trash in it?
The dusting of wall trim and top of stalls really doesn't need to be done more than once a week.
Hi Isabel! Thank you for commenting.
Clean hands are cleaner than dirty gloves. People often wear gloves throughout a cleaning and inadvertently cross contaminate multiple surfaces. Gloves only need to be worn when dealing with hazardous/contaminated areas and immediately disposed of after use. Beyond that, it's up to the cleaners discretion.
We check consumables first to make sure they are not forgotten, as well as the trash. Often times, cleaners forget to check the toilet paper, paper towels, trash, etc.. Forgetting those items leaves the impression that the restroom was not cleaned. Toilet disinfection and acid bowl cleaner are towards the top of the list, but not first.
Mirror first, counter first, it doesn't really matter what order they are done in, one simply needs to pay close attention to their work and leave it sparkly clean. Additionally, overspray of a cleaning chemical onto a mirror is not likely to leave residue since it does not contain solids like hard water.
Yes, we put trash in the trash can. In a real world scenario cleaners would use their rolling barrel or janitorial cart to dispose of any waste. This would avoid the impression that the trash was not taken out.
Correct! Dusting is a weekly task. Feel free to check out our training cards for a detailed breakdown on how to clean a restroom like a pro: shop.octoclean.com/products/team-cleaning-training-cards
Always wear gloves
