5-star cleaning tips for your Airbnb rental
Keeping your Airbnb listing clean is essential for getting the best possible rating and ensuring your guests want to return. You can clean it yourself, but sometimes hiring a professional cleaning service is the best option.
If you're going to clean it yourself, make sure you do it thoroughly and don't forget those details that will enhance your guests' experience and make them feel at home. Follow these tips to clean your Airbnb listing and make it look spotless:
Cleaning a rental space can be quick and easy if you use the right tools. Each task requires a specific tool to get the place clean and looking spotless in no time. According to cleaning professionals, the tools you should have on hand to clean your Airbnb property are:
Multipurpose mop with microfiber heads and brush for mopping floors and removing dust from hard-to-reach corners.
Double-sided mop bucket to separate soapy water from rinse water.
Vacuum cleaner with accessories for carpets and corners, such as sliding door tracks.
Sliding shower hose for rinsing a sink, bathtub, or shower that lacks a drain.
Multipurpose glass scraper for cooktops and shower doors or enclosures.
Non-toxic cleaning solutions to remove stains, soap scum and kitchen grease.
Scratch-resistant sponges for removing hard water stains from stainless steel faucets.
Dryer balls to reduce the amount of lint and hair that sticks to clothes.
Reusable lint roller for removing pet hair from upholstered furniture.
Keep your supplies organized and easily accessible. A great way to have them ready when you need them is to store them in a locked cabinet, a locked trunk in the garage, or another locked area of the property.
Choose neutral fragrances and let in plenty of fresh air.
Your property should smell clean without smelling like air freshener. Scents can be too strong for some people, so avoid electric air fresheners with very strong fragrances. To make your property smell fresh and clean without smelling like perfume or chemicals, open the windows while you clean to let in fresh air. Leave an air purifier running to remove dust and odors. Finally, spray a very light air freshener with a subtle linen or cotton scent.
Don't forget the five-star extras.
Your guests will appreciate the extra effort if you take the time to replenish items like dish soap, hand soap, and toiletries. Leave laundry detergent if there's a washing machine. Provide a clean sponge in the kitchen. Wipe down the fixtures.
Gather all the remote controls and keep them in one place. Make sure you have copies of the instructions for using appliances, turning on the TV, or accessing Wi-Fi. Tuck the edges of toilet paper and paper towels under the rims so they come to a point, like in a luxury hotel.
