One of the most important duties of a restaurant is to have a clean establishment. Not only is it is it good for guest satisfaction, it is also a requirement. Every restaurant is inspected monthly but the health board and the worst thing possible is to get any less than a B on your report. Particularly since most states require the restaurant owner to have the report in a visible place for guests to see. No man is an island, though, so hiring a restaurant cleaning service is necessary to the success of your business. Here are five things every restaurant owner should think of when hiring a cleaning service.

1. Know Before You Go

Figure out the cleaning schedule you want to set for the size of your restaurant. Some owners only need a cleaning company every 2 weeks while others need it every 2 days. Then, make a list of prospective cleaning services you are interested in. Read as much information on them as you can. Check their status with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to see how they rank. Go to their website and see how well they represent themselves.

2. Ask the Right Questions

When looking around for a restaurant cleaning service, ask the right questions. How long have they been in business? Do they have any references from previous clients? Can they work at the scheduled time you need them to? Do keep in mind that a newer company can sometimes clean better than one that’s been around for years. This is why references or pictures of previous work are important.

3. It Takes Two

Cleaning crews often come in pairs to clean restaurants. It speeds up the job while still giving proper attention to the details of cleaning the place. Get to know the crew and ensure they are the only ones to clean your restaurant. It will put your mind at ease if you can recognize the people coming through your door. Cleaning crews often have to come late at night to clean since it can’t be done during restaurant business hours.

4. Do Your Part

Keep a list of cleaning duties your workers can do to upkeep the restaurant. Make sure everyone, from servers to cooks, have certain tasks to complete in between shifts and when closing.

5. Remember the Code

Give the cleaning company a copy of the form that health inspectors go by to measure the cleanliness of the restaurant. This way, both you and the cleaning company know the steps necessary to take to ensure the restaurant meets the necessary health code.
