When it comes to spring cleaning, most people spend time tidying up and organizing their homes. If you’re a business owner, getting your employees engaged in keeping the office looking its best can be beneficial. Tidy workspaces do more than boost employee moods. With less clutter and fewer distractions, you can see more productivity. Use this easy spring cleaning checklist for your office and encourage your employees to clean up their workspaces!

OFFICE SPRING CLEANING CHECKLIST

Clean off your desk. Remove everything, wipe down your space with anti-bacterial cleaner and put everything back in an organized manner. Make sure that you keep the things you need close by like pens, paper and sticky notes. File away or store anything you don’t use often.

Clean out your computer. Organize and file your documents. Clean off your desktop. Filter your emails. Create separate folders for last year’s documents and messages. Then, back up these folders to a cloud or external drive so you can access anything you need without excess clutter. Change the passwords for your business logins and secure files, too.

Clean your break rooms. Remove all items from the refrigerator and cabinets. Toss any old or expired foods. Put everything else back in an organized way. Clean and sanitize the fridge, microwave, coffee maker and any other appliances you have. Wipe down the countertops.  

Clear conference rooms. Many conference rooms end up with a plethora of equipment, supplies and notes from old meetings jammed into cabinets and other areas. Clean out these areas and properly store, file or throw out the items you find. Dust the cabinets and shelves. Sanitize table surfaces. Use a hand vacuum to freshen the upholstered furniture. Wipe down equipment as needed.

If you don’t have a cleaning crew in your office, encourage and empower your staff to work as a team to maintain everyday cleaning tasks like washing dishes, taking out the trash, replacing liners, cleaning glass doors and windows, sanitizing surfaces, maintaining the floors any other office cleaning required.
