Back >> Departure Cleaning
Departure Clean Services are complete cleaning of a vacation property between short term tenants. These services are scheduled preferably via email or phone at least 72 hours in advance of services. Request confirmation and we’ll send it via e-mail from our database system. Guest departure or check-out time is characteristically at 10 am, with check-in time not before 4pm that same day or another day in the future. Of course, services can be scheduled < 72 hours in advance as long as staffing can be arranged. This should rarely be a problem with the exception of Saturdays during the Summer and/or Holidays.
They consist of a thorough cleaning of the vacation residence, removal of soiled linens, and replacing with clean linens, if they are not laundered on site. Departure Clean Services can be upgraded with the addition of Comprehensive Care Services, that seeks to keep the rental home in as pristine condition as possible by rotating periodic cleaning chores with each scheduled Departure Clean Service. During off season periods, supplemental cleaning, or even an annual deep cleaning may be necessary to bring the property up to standard, depending on occupancy levels.
