Make the most of your upcoming cleaning appointment! Follow these 7 easy tips to prepare your home and get the best results from your professional cleaning service.

Hiring a cleaning company like Mid City Cleaning of Baton Rouge is a great way to reclaim your time and enjoy a fresh, spotless home. But many first time clients ask: “Is there anything I should do before the cleaners arrive?” The answer is yes—but don’t worry, it’s simple!

Here are 7 quick tips to help you prepare so that your cleaning appointment goes smoothly and delivers the best results possible.

 

1. Tidy Up Cluttered Surfaces

We don’t expect a perfect home (that’s our job!), but picking up loose items—like laundry, toys, dishes, and mail—allows your cleaners to focus on deep cleaning rather than organizing.

Pro tip: Put clutter in a laundry basket and tuck it away if you’re short on time.

2. Secure Pets

We love animals, but for their safety and ours, please secure pets in a designated area or room during the cleaning. This prevents stress and ensures the team can work without interruption.

3. Communicate Priorities

If you have specific areas you want extra attention on (like baseboards, behind the fridge, or heavy buildup in bathrooms), let us know in advance or leave a note—we’ll make sure it gets handled.

4. Provide Access

Please make sure someone is home or that we have a way to access your property (such as a code, key, or doorman instructions). If you won’t be there, ensure we have updated contact info in case we need to reach you.

5. Put Away Valuables or Fragile Items

While our team is careful, background checked and insured, we recommend you store jewelry, heirlooms, or breakables in a safe spot for peace of mind.

6. Clear Sinks and Counters (if possible)

It helps to clear dishes from the sink and move personal items off bathroom counters. This gives us full access to scrub and sanitize without having to rearrange items.

7. Ask Questions Ahead of Time

If you’re unsure about what’s included in your service or how long it might take, don’t hesitate to reach out! Our team is happy to clarify anything before your scheduled appointment.
