Commercial bathroom cleaning checklist

A commercial bathroom cleaning checklist is the daily list a cleaner follows in every washroom: restocking, cleaning toilets, urinals and basins, wiping touch points and mirrors, emptying bins and mopping the floor, working from clean to dirty. Following the same order every visit keeps washrooms hygienic and stops complaints from the client.

Common questions

What order should you clean a bathroom in?

Restock first, then work from clean to dirty and top to bottom, mirrors and basins before toilets and urinals, and the floor last. That stops dirt being spread onto surfaces you have already cleaned.

Why use colour-coded cleaning equipment?

So cloths and mops used on toilets never touch kitchen or office surfaces. Each colour is kept for one area, which stops cross-contamination.

How often should commercial bathrooms be cleaned?

At least once a day, and more often in busy sites, with restocking and spot checks between full cleans.
