What to Do Before Your Cleaner Arrives (Holiday Version)

The holidays are magical, but let’s be honest: they can also feel a bit like running a marathon with a turkey in each hand. Between hosting visiting family, wrapping presents, and baking holiday treats, your to-do list is already a mile long.
The good news? You’ve booked your holiday cleaning with Sparkling Homes, which means a sparkling clean, stress-free home is just around the corner. To help us make your space absolute perfection before guests arrive, we’ve put together a quick, stress-free game plan of what to do (and what not to stress about) before our team rings the doorbell.
1. Declutter the Surfaces
Our cleaning pros make your home shine, but we aren't mind readers when it comes to sorting through personal items, mail, or holiday clutter. Before we arrive, take a quick sweep through main living areas and countertops to tuck away stray toys, paperwork, and clutter. A clutter-free surface allows us to clean and sanitize every inch of your countertops and tables effectively!
2. Clear Off the Kitchen Counters
With holiday baking in full swing, your kitchen is working overtime. To give our team clear access to sanitize your counters, wipe down the backsplash, and leave your kitchen gleaming, please remove small appliances, mixing bowls, and baking ingredients from the main counter spaces.
3. Take a Deep Breath and Relax
The biggest mistake people make before a cleaning? Spending hours "cleaning before the cleaners come." You don't need to pre-wipe your showers or dust your coffee tables. That is literally what we are here for! Put on your favorite holiday playlist, pour yourself a warm cup of coffee or tea, and let us do the heavy lifting.
4. Ensure Easy Access to the House
To help our team stick to their schedule and dive right into making your home shine, please double-check that your entry points are clear and accessible. Whether it's unlocking a gate, sharing an updated door code, or ensuring someone is home to greet them, smooth entry gets the cleaning started right on time!
