[ ] High-touch cleaning: list rental rooms, light switches, doorknobs and countertops; attach photos of visible dirt and ask which surfaces the cleaning visit includes.
[ ] Hard-surface cleaning: identify counter and floor finishes and request soap-and-water or other appropriate product descriptions for each finish.
[ ] Soft-surface cleaning: list carpets, rugs and drapes; distinguish vacuuming from cleaning washable items, laundering where possible and complete drying.
[ ] Laundry cleaning: state the linens and towels included, laundering and drying assignments, detergent and recommended temperature; include cleaning the hamper or basket.
[ ] Electronics cleaning: list remote controls and touch screens; ask how manufacturer instructions and wipeable covers affect the proposed cleaning method.
[ ] Cleaning sequence: identify soap or detergent cleaning before any additional sanitizing or disinfecting task, with the surfaces for that additional task listed.
[ ] Bleach cleaning precautions: retain the no-mixing instruction for bleach or disinfectants and other cleaners in the written method.
[ ] Bleach application during cleaning: use manufacturer instructions; when instructions are unavailable, retain CDC’s conditional contact time and visibly-wet requirement.
[ ] Cleaning solution preparation: ask how fresh diluted bleach is made for the visit and how the daily preparation instruction is reflected in the cleaning schedule.
