           As consumers we are aware of the environmental impact of everyday products. The cleaning industry is no exception. Eco-friendly cleaning, often called green cleaning, has emerged as a crucial practice for businesses that care about both the planet and human health. But what does green cleaning really mean, and how can you make sure your cleaning practices are truly sustainable?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;

           What Does Green Cleaning Really Mean?

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Green cleaning refers to the use of cleaning products and practices that are environmentally friendly. This means selecting products that are non-toxic, biodegradable, and made from renewable resources. These products should not harm the planet, human health, or wildlife. Green cleaning involves reducing waste, minimising water usage, and avoiding harmful chemicals that can pollute the air and water systems.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

           The Risk of Greenwashing
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           While the rise of eco-friendly cleaning products is promising, the term "green cleaning" is sometimes used misleadingly by companies trying to capitalise on the sustainability trend. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Greenwashing refers to a practice when a product is marketed as "eco-friendly" without being substantiated by environmentally friendly practices or ingredients.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           To avoid falling for greenwashing, it's important to look beyond marketing claims and verify the product’s environmental credentials. Look for certification badges and always review the ingredients list and safety data to ensure that the product meets environmental and health standards.

           The Risks of Using Green Cleaning Products Made for Domestic Settings in Commercial Environments
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           You might think that domestic green cleaning products will work just as well in commercial environments, but that's not always the case. Products designed for home use may not be strong enough for the heavy-duty cleaning required in commercial spaces. The cleaning standards in a commercial setting are typically more demanding, and using domestic products could lead to poor cleaning results, higher product usage, and ultimately, inefficiency.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           When selecting green cleaning products for commercial settings, it's important to choose those that are formulated specifically for business environments, ensuring they meet both environmental and performance standards.

           How We Do It at Core Services Cleaning
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           We deliver sustainable, eco-friendly cleaning solutions that meet the highest standards of both cleanliness and environmental responsibility. Here’s how we approach green cleaning:
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Select Chemicals Carefully
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           We understand that not all cleaning products are created equal. That's why we choose cleaning agents that are biodegradable, non-toxic, and certified as safe for both human health and the environment.
          &#xD;

           Even When a Product Has Toxic Compounds, Check Disposal Guidelines
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Some cleaning products contain toxic compounds, but when diluted properly and disposed of according to recommended guidelines, they can often be safely flushed into sewage systems. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           It’s always important to follow the disposal instructions on the label, as this ensures the product is treated correctly and does not harm the environment. This is included in staff onboarding and ongoing training. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

           We operate in the Black Country, an area historically known for its heavy industrial pollution. You might be wondering why it’s important for a business like ours to focus on sustainability. The truth is, the Black Country is changing. While it remains home to many manufacturers and steel companies, it is also becoming more sensitive to environmental issues. After the COVID-19 pandemic, many people are more aware than ever of pollutants in their environment.

           1. What is green cleaning?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Green cleaning refers to the use of cleaning products and methods that are environmentally friendly, non-toxic, and sustainable. It involves selecting cleaning products made from biodegradable, natural ingredients, reducing harmful chemicals, and ensuring minimal negative impact on both human health and the environment.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
            2. Why is it important to choose eco-friendly cleaning products?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Eco-friendly cleaning products are essential because they help reduce the environmental impact of harmful chemicals that can contaminate water systems, soil, and wildlife. By choosing green cleaning products, you’re helping protect natural resources, improve indoor air quality, and contribute to a healthier planet.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
            
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           3. What is greenwashing, and how can I avoid it?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Greenwashing is when a company falsely claims that their products are environmentally friendly or "green" when, in reality, they may not be. To avoid greenwashing, look for products with third-party certifications, review the ingredients on the label, and research if the product complies with environmental regulations like REACH and Detergents Regulations.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           4. Can I use domestic green cleaning products in a commercial setting?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           While domestic green cleaning products are generally safe for home use, they may not be effective or powerful enough for commercial spaces that require frequent and intensive cleaning. It’s best to use products specifically formulated for commercial use, as they are designed to meet the higher cleaning demands of businesses while still being eco-friendly.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           5. How does Core Services choose eco-friendly cleaning products?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           At Core Services Cleaning, we select cleaning products based on their environmental impact, ensuring they meet strict regulations like REACH and The Detergents Regulations. We also review Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) to check for toxicity, biodegradability, and bioaccumulation potential. We favour products made in the UK to reduce transportation-related emissions and minimise our carbon footprint.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           6. What are the main environmental factors we consider when choosing cleaning products?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           When selecting cleaning products, we consider several environmental factors:
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Toxicity: We choose products with low toxicity to ensure they’re safe for both people and wildlife.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Bioaccumulation: We avoid products with ingredients that can accumulate in the bodies of living organisms.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Persistence and Degradability: We prioritise biodegradable products that break down naturally in the environment.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           PBT and vPvB Testing: We check that products do not meet the Persistent, Bioaccumulative, Toxic (PBT) or very Persistent, very Bioaccumulative (vPvB) criteria to prevent long-term environmental damage.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Endocrine Disruption: We steer clear of products that may disrupt hormonal systems in humans or animals.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           7. Is it safe to dispose of eco-friendly cleaning products down the drain?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           In most cases properly diluted eco-friendly cleaning products can be safely flushed in the toilet and treated by sewage systems. However, it’s always important to check the product’s disposal guidelines, as some ingredients may still require special handling, even when diluted. Always check local regulations and laws.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           8. Why is sustainability important for businesses in the Black Country?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           The Black Country is undergoing a transformation. While historically an industrial region known for pollution, it is now home to a more eco-conscious population. Many people are becoming more sensitive to pollutants in the environment, and businesses are starting to play a key role in reducing their environmental impact. By choosing sustainable practices, Core Services Cleaning is doing its part to contribute to this positive change.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           9. How does Core Services contribute to reducing carbon emissions?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           At Core Services Cleaning, we take several steps to reduce our carbon footprint. We choose locally-made products to reduce transportation emissions, adopt paperless systems to minimise waste, and prioritise sustainable cleaning practices to protect the environment. These efforts collectively help reduce our overall environmental impact.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

           What Does Office Cleaning Cost in 2024?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/h2&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Office cleaning costs can vary widely, but understanding the main pricing models can help you make an informed decision. Here’s a breakdown of the most common cost structures in the office cleaning industry:
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Cost Per Hour for Office Cleaning
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Hourly rates for office cleaning can range from £15 to £35 or more, depending on the scope of the work and whether supplies like chemicals and equipment are included. Generally, cleaning companies have a minimum visit time of 2 hours, even if the job takes less time. Companies like Core Services Cleaning offer hourly rates that include cleaning chemicals and equipment, starting from £20 per hour plus VAT. Clients can choose to add on consumables like bin bags and toilet paper, which appear as additional charges on monthly invoices. Clients can also request one-off projects such as deep cleaning and carpet cleaning.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Cost Per Square Foot for Office Cleaning
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           For larger sites, cleaning companies often use a cost-per-square-foot model. This approach is ideal for big facilities like supermarkets or large office buildings. It calculates costs based on the size of different areas (e.g., washrooms, offices, corridors) and uses industry-standard productivity rates to estimate cleaning times. The cost per square foot typically ranges from a few pence to a higher rate depending on the complexity of the cleaning required. For example, a 5,000 square foot space might cost £750 per day at £0.15 per square foot. Larger sites serviced daily by cleaning teams often use this method, though it can be adapted for smaller sites.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Cost Per Session for Office Cleaning
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Cost per session is another common pricing model, particularly for self-employed cleaners or specialised services like window or carpet cleaning. This approach works well for one-off or project-based tasks such as end-of-tenancy cleaning. Prices vary widely based on the scope of work, but it’s a good option for businesses needing monthly cleaning services.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Differences in Pricing
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Cleaning costs differ significantly between solo operators and larger cleaning companies. Solo cleaners tend to have fewer overheads and may charge lower rates. However, reputable solo cleaners who consistently deliver high-quality work are entitled to charge rates that reflect their reliability. On the other hand, cleaning companies typically offer structured pricing models and additional services, such as supply management and discounts for long-term contracts.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           At Core Services Cleaning, we prioritise transparency in our pricing. Our hourly rates start from £20 per hour plus VAT and include standard cleaning supplies. Clients can customise their packages with additional services and consumables, and contracted sites booking multiple sessions each week qualify for long-term discounts.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Understanding office cleaning costs in 2024 can help you make the best decision for your business. Whether you opt for hourly rates, square foot pricing, or per-session fees, it’s crucial to assess your specific needs and choose the right provider. Ensure your office remains clean, safe, and productive, all while staying within budget.

           1. What is the average hourly rate for office cleaning?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Office cleaning rates range from £15 to £35 per hour, depending on factors like the type of cleaning and the inclusion of supplies.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

           2. How is cost per square foot calculated?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           The cost per square foot depends on the area’s complexity and cleaning frequency, typically a few pence per square foot.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

           3. How can I reduce office cleaning costs?

           To reduce costs, consider bundling services, negotiating long-term contracts, or opting for basic cleaning services based on your office’s specific needs.
          &#xD;

           Why Office Cleaning Matters
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           A clean office is visually appealing, and it significantly impacts employee health and productivity. Regular office cleaning reduces sick days, improves focus, and enhances overall workplace satisfaction. A well-maintained office showcases professionalism and can positively influence client perceptions.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;

           Commercial Cleaning encompasses specialised services for various business environments, including offices, retail stores, and industrial facilities. These types of contracts usually include daily cleaning services.

           We define green cleaning as any cleaning that causes less damage to cleaning operatives and the environment.

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           For you and your workplace this can mean
          &#xD;

            Investing in greener cleaning is proof that your company values sustainability. In this age of ‘greenwashing’ employees are quick to noticed when company values fall flat behind closed doors. Switching to green cleaning is a simple way your organisation can become more planet-friendly.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;

           But how does green cleaning work in a commercial setting, as opposed to domestic cleaning?

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           In commercial settings ‘natural’ cleaning solutions like vinegar or essential oils simply aren’t strong enough to combat multiple sources of bacteria (you and your colleagues) But this doesn’t mean your workplace cleaning needs to fumigate the office.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            There are many commercial products that are environmentally friendly and suitable for workplace cleaning. But not all are created equally. Some cleaning chemical manufacturers are known for being planet friendly at every stage of production. Others take use recyclable packaging. And other products aren’t harmful when inhaled, won’t pollute water sources, and aren’t tested on animals.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Unfortunately, there is always a compromise. You could find an incredible anti-viral anti-bacterial chemical but by the time you’ve shipped it halfway around the world you’ve increased your carbon footprint. Or you can have an amazing green cleaning kit, but it’s used by a cleaning operative who drives an old petrol car. Even microfibre cloths, a staple of green cleaning kits, release microplastics when washed.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           There is no perfect solution to supplying green cleaning, but small changes can make a hugely noticeable impact.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            To start with, most companies purchase cleaning products marketed as ‘green’ or ‘eco-friendly.’
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           To understand which products to use take care to do the following:
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;ul&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            Read the fine print for each chemical product. Some of the leading eco chemicals are completely unsuitable for commercial cleaning.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            Decide which environmentally friendly qualifiers are most important to you
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            Test, test, test! Until you try it you just won’t know
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/ul&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           As well as products you can train your cleaning operatives in greener cleaning methods, and your entire workforce in better sustainability practices. This can include:
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;ul&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            Investing in high quality reusable cleaning cloths
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            Preventative maintenance of equipment
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            Storing chemicals properly
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            Make recycling easy to access
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/ul&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

            Cleaning operatives should also empty bins, dry dust ledges, clean floors, and take special care when cleaning kitchen and toilet areas as standard. This is a basic level of service.

      &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
        
            Whenever moving into a different zone carry out these hygiene measures:
           &#xD;
      &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
        
            •	Wear a mask 
           &#xD;
      &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;div&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
        
            •	Wash hands or change gloves

    &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
        
            Between each zone? Yes, between each zone.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;font&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
        
            Even if it’s only a few feet from the shop floor to the office? Yes!

            To really keep your staff safe use cleaning products designed to attack enveloped viruses.

    &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
        
            And make sure your cleaning operatives are touchpoint cleaning trained.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;div&gt;&#xD;

      <description>Our methods to make sure our cleaning operatives clean to a high standard.</description>
      <content:encoded>&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
           How do we train our cleaning operatives?
          &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           When we make a new hire we spend at least a week on site with them. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Microfibre cleaning can be different to what they’re used to, so we make sure they are confident with the method. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           We also make sure they understand our clients deserve the very best cleaning standards, and it’s their responsibility to deliver. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Each site has quirks and areas that attract more dirt or cobwebs than normal. We help a new operative become acquainted with these areas, and any special preferences our client may have. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Once we’ve completed a week with them we allow them to work a shift alone. We join them on completion for a walkabout together. With new operatives there’s normally something missed. We give constructive feedback so they can meet standards as soon as possible. From then on we will check back once a week and conduct a review at the end of four weeks. We continue with random spot checks, and four-weekly reviews until the completion of three months.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Everything is documented and signed off so if there is an operative who does not deliver high cleaning standards we have a record in place if disciplinary action is required. Although we do not like to terminate contracts with operatives we invest in, our priority is delivering quality facilities to our clients.  We have excellent HR policies in place for the rare instances this occurs. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;

      <description>The proven science behind microfibre cleaning.</description>
      <content:encoded>&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
        &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
          
             What is microfibre cleaning?
            &#xD;
        &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           We were first introduced to microfibre cleaning when training with Diversey Johnson.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Microfibre is a synthetic fabric many times smaller than human hair. The gap between fibres is so tiny it creates a static charge that attracts dry soil and dust.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           The real magic happens when used damp. Capillary action is when liquid moves through narrow spaces without or against the assistance of external forces. Damp microfibre creates a suction net that draws up bacteria and traps it deep in the cloth. Rather than pushing bacteria around, microfibre traps bacteria more effectively than traditional cloths, when used correctly.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Microfibre cloths can be boil washed, which releases and kills trapped bacteria.  Unfortunately this releases microplastics into the water. However find out how we combat this and continue to make our service environmentally friendly by reading our

      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Microfibre has become the cleaning method of choice for many supermarkets and restaurants. When swabs were independently tested (at 3 labs!) microfibre cloths were 3 times more effective at collecting bacteria than traditional cloths.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;

          &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           We define green cleaning as cleaning practices that are less harmful than traditional methods. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           This does not mean we will clean your site with essential oils and lemon juice. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Becoming greener is an ongoing process. It’s important to remember there is no cleaning method that is 100% environmentally friendly, but it is possible to reduce our impact on the planet.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Core Services Cleaning methods achieve the following green goals:
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;ul&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
        &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
          
             Reduce amount of water waste
            &#xD;
        &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
        &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
          
             Do not introduce new airborne risks through toxic cleaning products
            &#xD;
        &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;li&gt;&#xD;

             Chose suppliers whose packaging can be recycled
            &#xD;
        &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/ul&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Some of our suppliers are Clover Chemicals Ltd, Diversey Johnson, and Solution World of Clean. 
          &#xD;

  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           We also use microfibre cleaning cloths. This is an imperfect solution as during washing microplastics are released and end up back in the ocean. To combat this we use microfibre filters that reduce any harmful impact. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           We use microfibre cleaning cloths because they leave hard surfaces far cleaner than traditional spray-and-wipe methods. You can learn more about microfibre cleaning by looking at our

           Although we are keen to reduce our impact on the environment we recognize the need to deliver the highest possible standard of cleaning to our clients. We are constantly on the lookout for new cleaning technologies that can perform. Please get in touch if you have any recommendations.

           You can find eco-cleaners in many supermarkets now. Over the last 5 years we have experimented with as many products as we could find. As with most domestic cleaning products, they are not suited to commercial settings. You can learn more about domestic vs commercial cleaning products here.

  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           In commercial cleaning there are many accreditations a company can apply for.
          &#xD;

           Some accreditations relate to health and safety policies or management procedures to ensure quality standards. The accreditations relating to cleaning methods are beneficial but like everything only as useful as the person using it.

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Most cleaning professionals have a minimum cost per visit. For hourly rate cleaners the minimum is usually 2 hours, even if a site clean takes less time.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           The price can range from £12.50--£20.00 per hour. The variance is often because of the type of cleaning needed and whether consumables and chemicals are supplied. If your workplace has very basic cleaning requirements you may be able to negotiate a lower rate. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
        
            Per square foot pricing is normally used by larger cleaning corporations who are certified by the British Institute of Cleaning Science or similar. If you'd like to learn more about this see our article '

              What are accreditation certificates?
             &#xD;
          &lt;/a&gt;&#xD;
        &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
        
            '. 
           &#xD;
      &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           This takes into account each area type (washroom/office/corridor) and it’s percentage of the building in square feet. Average industry productivity rates are used to estimate cleaning times. Some productivity rates are lower because the area is more complex to clean, such as washroom facilities. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           The price usually works outs to a few pence per square foot. For example a 5000 foot space at £0.15 per square foot would cost £750 each day. This is a low cost example. There can be huge variances in cost per square foot depending on chemicals, machinery, and number of operatives. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           This type of pricing is typically used for national chains like supermarkets, or any large sites serviced daily by teams of operatives. It can be used for small to medium sites but is usually more beneficial if the facilities manager is already familiar with this method of costing. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           This is the method used by Core Services. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Each site has a different set of requirements so we build our service from scratch.

    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Our costs include the usual business overheads and whatever else the business owner would like us to provide. The latter is the area that varies the most. This means our clients are not only paying for cleaning labour time, but a range of other services too. For our detailed pricing guide see our post '

            Solo cleaners

    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           These are usually self-employed cleaners who build up a cleaning round locally. Some business owners have had the same operative  for years, and even have them take care of their homes and walk their dogs. This is a great option if you want to support somebody local and build a relationship with them. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Most solo cleaners take out a form of public liability insurance but it’s always best to check. And you will want to make sure they are working for other clients, not just you, to avoid any confusion relating to employment status.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           You’ll need to remember there’s no organisation backing a solo cleaner. When it comes to holiday or illness cover it can be difficult to keep up with cleaning sessions. The same is true if there are any complaints or disputes. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Payment can be as simple as cash-in-hand, or bank transfer. You may have to request invoices for your own records. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Beware online posts promoting solo cleaners for anything less than £10 an hour. If the price seems too good to be true it probably is. You may stumble across genuine hard-working cleaning operatives who are priced too low. Typically these burn out after a few months, or raise their prices fairly quickly.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Some of the best cleaning operatives we know started out as solo cleaners. They’re friendly, reliable, and are normally the cheaper option. Conversely, most of the horror stories about cleaning operatives gone rouge tend to be solo cleaners. It all depends on which type you hire.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
        
            Small cleaning companies
           &#xD;
      &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Most are local businesses who cover a wider location than a solo cleaner. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           As employers, they hire cleaning operatives and place them at your site. They are responsible for induction and on-going training. Normally they provide all equipment and chemicals, unless there’s a specific arrangement in place.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           They are expected to be fully up-to-date on HSE and HR matters, and should provide a line manager to take care of you as a client. They have a formal complaints procedure and may have the ability to get enhanced-DBS checks. Having a pool of local employees should mean more flexibility when covering absences. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           You may be required to sign a contract to retain ongoing cleaning services, and you would usually receive an invoice according to company terms. Payments are normally transferred online, although some companies are happy to accept a cheque.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           There are a few drawbacks to small companies. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           You relinquish choosing the individual operative. The cleaning company decides which operative to send, and would likely only change for a very good reason. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           It’s worth checking if you will receive the same operative each week. Core Services sends the same operative each time, excluding holiday or sickness cover, but some companies like to send different teams on rotation. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           As employers, they must comply with HSE standards which means there are more restrictions to consider. Core Services operatives cannot use bleach or work at height. You would need to check each company’s policy. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           There is a perception that contract cleaners are difficult to get hold of once your contract is in place. There’s normally a reason stereotypes exist, but management reactivity can vary massively from company to company. The only way to know for certain is to check with their existing clients.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Price wise, it depends on whether your chosen company charges hourly, per square foot, or per session. Most companies have a minimum spend regardless of service time. We charge per session as we build each service from scratch with each client. A reputable company should be able to provide you with a ranged estimate of your monthly spend following a site visit.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
        
            Cleaning agencies
           &#xD;
      &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Cleaning agencies typically use self-employed cleaners. Some are franchises which can appear and disappear very quickly. Since Core Services began we have seen 3 different agencies start up then fizzle out.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Payment can be complicated with agencies if they need to avoid paying the cleaning operative directly. Clients may end up paying a management fee each quarter, then paying the operative separately each session.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Although this isn’t true for all agencies, the operative’s rate generally matches the national minimum wage. For self-employed cleaners this doesn’t cover them for statutory holiday pay. Perhaps for this reason most agencies have a high turnover of workers.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
        &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
          
             National cleaning corporations
            &#xD;
        &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Large-scale companies who service larger organizations such as colleges, shopping centres and military bases.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           They have a corporate structure, and may also have cleaning accreditation's or ISO certifications. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Normally they are part of asset schemes where they can rent equipment and have them repaired. If your site requires heavy duty floor machinery this could be a good option.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Due to the costs involved these companies tend to service larger businesses or national chains. They normally have a high level of professionalism from management who can deliver reports on KPIs. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Pricing wise, they usually charge per square foot. There’s a wide variance between prices so it’s important to do your research beforehand. Contracts are typically for two years minimum, with some companies aiming for three or five.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           One drawback with national companies is that your site may not produce a large enough account for them. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           As large organizations they have to have set policies to keep things running smoothly. This can present a problem when it comes to flexibility. Supplying cleaning chemicals and equipment can be difficult as many require a minimum spend before an order can be placed. And, although it’s rare, some of the largest cleaning organizations can run into cash flow problems which impacts their teams. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;

           We appreciate your staff are paid to concentrate on profit-driving tasks, not dusting down shelves and cleaning sinks.  We try to take on as much as is reasonably possible to save you or your staff having to clean. We love the feeling of leaving a workplace clean and fresh for your staff to enjoy.

  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           This is just an example. We build each service from scratch as each site has different requirements. We have a flexible approach and can add in extras as needed.

           There are a few things Core Services operatives are unable to clean.

  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           These include: vehicles, windows, outdoor areas, humans or animals (yes, really), machinery, driveways, and clothing. They are unable to use bleach and cannot work at height.

      <title>Core Services Pricing</title>
      <link>https://www.coreservicescleaning.co.uk/core-services-pricing</link>
      <description>A guide to Core Services Cleaning pricing</description>
      <content:encoded>&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
           Core Services pricing:
          &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
        &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
          
             UPDATE:
            &#xD;
        &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           At present due to COVID-19 we are supplying all sites with a medical-grade antiviral cleaner by Diversey, an antiviral floor cleaner plus additional PPE. For the safety of our operatives we are unable to serve any sites who do not want our antiviral service until the pandemic is over.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           This is charged at cost but has naturally increased our sessional price. To complete an antiviral hard surface clean our operatives have to wipe over each surface three times meaning site completion takes longer than usual. Our operatives complete their usual tasks then apply our antiviral cleaner to hard surfaces, and remove after proper contact time.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Our current standard pricing is £44.99 for a weekly session for a maximum of 2.5 hours. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Once the pandemic is over and our antiviral service is no longer necessary we will update this page, and can adapt cleaning services as requested. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;

      <title>Antiviral Cleaning During a Pandemic</title>
      <link>https://www.coreservicescleaning.co.uk/antiviral-cleaning-during-a-pandemic</link>
      <description>Our guide to cleaning measures during the COVID-19 pandemic</description>
      <content:encoded>&lt;h3&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
        
            Covid-19
           &#xD;
      &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
&lt;/h3&gt;&#xD;
&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           If you have covid-19 positive members of staff in your workplace you will likely want to book a deep antiviral clean. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Most of the companies who supply this service are existing crime scene cleaners who have full PPE and heavy duty cleaning chemicals.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           They are equipped with machinery that can spray chemicals over hard surfaces, soft furnishings and outdoor areas of your site. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           This is called fogging and is a specialist cleaning service that Core Services does not provide. If you fill in our Service Builder we can find a reputable supplier with experience. Due to the virus, many new fogging companies have sprung up almost overnight and some do not have proper training. We’ll put you in touch with the experts.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
        
            Ongoing cleaning measures:
           &#xD;
      &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           While there is still a palpable risk we as employers are responsible for the safety of our operatives. For this reason we are only sending them to sites who agree to our antiviral cleaning programme. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           Cleaning operatives clean as usual then go over hard surfaces with Diversey Oxivir, a medical-grade chemical from one of the best suppliers in the world. At the start of the pandemic we could not purchase this chemical as it was in high demand at NHS and medical facilities. As this is a medical issue we do not feel confident in household products and want to make sure we are giving the very best protection to our clients in a cost-effective manner.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      
           The corona virus is part of a family of viruses that have a fatty outer shell. Oxivir penetrates the outer shell and goes on to attack the virus itself. We are more confident in this product than any other. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;font&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/font&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
