People sometimes think we “just clean Airbnbs.” But there’s actually a lot more to our job than cleaning. 🏡
When my team walks into a property after a guest checks out, we’re often the first people to see what was left behind and the last people inside before the next guests arrive.
Yes, we clean bathrooms, kitchens, floors, make beds and get everything looking beautiful again—but that’s only part of what we do.
We’re also checking the property.
Did something get broken?
Is something missing?
Is there a new stain or damage?
Is a light burnt out?
Is something leaking or not working properly?
Are supplies running low?
Did the last guests leave something behind?
If something doesn’t look right, we document it and communicate it to the owner or property manager.
And sometimes we find things that have absolutely nothing to do with cleaning—but because we’re the ones physically there, we catch them before the next guest does.
That part of our job is especially important for owners who live hours away from their properties. We become their eyes and ears between guests.
Airbnb cleaning also comes with a completely different kind of pressure. If one guest checks out at 11 and another checks in at 4, we don't get to say, “We'll finish tomorrow.” 😅
The property has to be cleaned, reset, checked, restocked and ready to welcome another guest—all within that turnover window.
So when you see our team carrying vacuums, laundry and cleaning supplies into an Airbnb, we're not just cleaning a house.
We're helping prepare someone's business for their next customer. ❤️
And that's a responsibility we take seriously.
