What makes us — or anyone for that matter — the best janitor in town?
Here are the top three reasons we think our business clients choose The Green Janitor for professional janitorial services:
1. Trust
Offices are full of sensitive data and valuable equipment. Cleaners arrive after hours, with special security clearance, when nobody is around to monitor them. Did they cut corners? Or worse, is something missing?
Companies routinely hire cleaning companies with high turnover and low morale, a recipe for mistrust. We pay our staff well and specifically seek out people who already have a track record of being trustworthy.
The best office janitor in your city or town will be the one staffed by the kind of people you’d trust to housesit for a week — responsible, attentive and happy to help. This is why most of our leads come from word-of-mouth — we are trusted throughout the community.
2. Service (The Extra Mile)
“What do you do to go the extra mile when cleaning offices?” is a good question to ask if you’re wondering how to compare office janitors.
The difference between a cleaner and a professional cleaner is “the extra mile”. Virtually anyone can clean an office, but will they clean an office like they do it for a living? Professional cleaners will find opportunities to improve the cleanliness of a space and exceed client expectations. It’s what separates a good cleaning job from a great cleaning job.
Every cleaner should be removing cobwebs, but will they treat the area with non-toxic insecticide so the spiders and cobwebs don’t come back?
Every cleaner has a checklist of cleaning tasks, but will they customize their checklist with your special requests?
Will they straighten crooked equipment and artwork? Will they stow cables and chairs neatly under desks? It’s those little touches that add up to a professional cleaning job.
3. Value
Ultimately, we’re talking about cleaning a business, and a business has got to be all about the bottom line.
But the question is not “Who is the cheapest janitor?” but “Who is the best janitor?” If you go with the cheapest, you almost certainly are making a compromise in trust and service.
For us, trust is non-negotiable. We simply don’t think business owners should be hiring a cleaning company unless their management can personally vouch for the trustworthiness of every last staff member.
If you find more than one company you feel you can trust, compare pricing in the context of service. What are you getting for your money? Who will go the extra mile?
If you’re asking those questions in the Hudson Valley area, those questions are easy, since we’re the answer! To office cleaning seekers in other parts of the globe — good luck with your search.
