How often should an office be cleaned?
Daily, weekly and periodic cleaning tasks for offices, plus how headcount changes the schedule.
Quick answer
Most occupied offices need kitchens, washrooms and bins cleaned daily, desks and floors cleaned two to five times a week, and periodic deep cleans of carpets and hard floors every three to six months.
Daily tasks
Washrooms, kitchens and breakout areas, bins and touchpoints such as door handles, lift buttons and shared equipment.
Weekly tasks
Desks, meeting rooms and full vacuuming and mopping, internal glass and partitions, and dusting of high and low surfaces.
Periodic tasks
Carpet extraction, hard-floor scrubbing, window cleaning and kitchen appliance deep cleans.
