House Cleaning – A Disgusting Way One Cleaners Saves a Few Pennies

Think you made a great deal, negotiating with your cleaning company or your maid for the absolute lowest rate? Read on…

One of the recurring costs cleaners incur is the washing and drying of the cleaning towels (cloths) used to clean everything from desks to toilets. When a cleaner has a profit margin that is razor thin, some will do almost anything they can to save money. This includes the washing the cleaning towels.

One of the recurring costs cleaners incur is the washing and drying of the cleaning towels (cloths) used to clean everything from desks to toilets. When a cleaner has a profit margin that is razor thin, some will do almost anything they can to save money. This includes the washing the cleaning towels.

You are probably asking, how can you save money on something as trivial as this? Let me tell you the shocking news. A few years back I was introduced to this “secret,” at a cleaning company I was working for. One of the employees working for this cleaning company told me this: “TO SAVE FEW BUCKS YOU DON’T WASH THE TOWELS, YOU JUST DRY THEM. This will save you few bucks a month, but every penny counts, right? Of course you can’t do it every time. One time do it without drying and next time the regular way.”

I was in shock!

But this is reality as to what happens in the real world, especially when a cleaning company isn’t being paid very much for their efforts.

To safeguard yourself do two things:

  • Make sure you’re paying a fair price (not too high, but not so low either);
  • Make the cleaning company show you their system that guarantees proper practices of washing the cleaning cloths.
