thank you for choosing
Green cleaning
As a local, eco-friendly, customer-centered cleaning company, we would be delighted to provide our services to meet your needs.
At Green Cleaning, we take pride in our ability to exceed our clients’ expectations by providing quality cleaning services that ensure your guests have a wonderful experience while staying on your property. We understand the importance of ensuring that your guests feel welcome and comfortable upon their arrival.
We work closely with property owners to maintain all areas of the property, ensuring that items are stocked, garbage and recycling have been removed, and all laundry is completed. We provide all cleaning products necessary for turnovers, but do suggest that at minimum, a multi-purpose cleaner is kept on site just in case guests need it during their stay. We are also happy to take on the responsibility of ordering and restocking all household items so you can have a peace of mind knowing that everything is taken care of.
At Green Cleaning, we prioritize open communication with our clients and will promptly document and communicate any damages or concerts that may arise. Additionally, we have created a checklist specifically to your property that will be referred to for each cleaning. This checklist can be customized any time to better fit the needs of your property, ensuring a thorough and consistent cleaning each time.
Below you will find our policies and a link to the checklist to ensure that you are fully informed about what to expect from us.
Thank you for considering Green Cleaning for your short-term rental property needs and we hope for the opportunity to exceed your expectations.
Sincerely,
Samantha M. Smachetti

A 15-minute grace period will be allowed for any remaining guests. If guests do not depart within this grace period, Green Cleaning reserves the right to reschedule the cleaning appointment to the next available time.

ALARM SYSTEMS:
All alarm codes must be provided to Green Cleaning at the time of booking. Green Cleaning is not liable for any false alarm charges due to code changes not brought to their attention before servicing the property.
LAUNDRY SERVICE:
Green Cleaning offers the option to complete laundry either on-site or off-site, based on the Client's preference.
Off-Site Laundry: If laundry is to be completed off-site, a separate price will be provided, and this will be discussed and agreed upon with the Client prior to service.
On-Site Laundry: For on-site laundry, it is recommended that guests strip the sheets from all used beds and place them with all used towels near the washing machine. Our cleaning technicians will make every effort to complete all laundry within the allotted appointment time.
In the event that laundry needs to be taken off-site for completion, a separate fee may apply, and an invoice will be sent. This will be discussed with the Client beforehand.
Any issues with the washer and/or dryer that may impede the ability to complete laundry in a timely manner will be communicated to the Client immediately.
To ensure a smooth process, a total of 3 sets of sheets for each bed and 2 sets of towels for each guest must be available on-site. This is important in case any items become stained beyond removal or are misplaced by guests.
RESTOCKING SUPPLIES:
We understand that most property owners may not be in the area, so Green Cleaning offers to maintain inventory and restock items as requested. We will report when items such as toilet paper, paper towels, soap, laundry detergent, etc. are running low and we offer two convenient options to restock the items.
Clients may have items shipped directly to Green Cleaning and once the shipment has arrived, the Cleaning Technicians will bring the items with them to the next scheduled cleaning appointment. If this option is selected, please send a screenshot of the order (including the tracking number and delivery date). Items shipped should not exceed the storage space at the property. We are unable to store items at our office for extended periods of time.
Clients may choose to have supplies purchased directly by Green Cleaning. If this occurs, the cost of the items will be added to the next invoice sent and the Cleaning Technician will bring the items with them to the next scheduled cleaning appointment.
EMERGENCY FEE:
In the event that a Cleaning Technician is dispatched to a property outside of a scheduled appointment to provide emergency services, such as changing batteries, unlocking or opening the property or supply closet, meeting guests or other contractors, an emergency fee of $100 may be applied. This fee will be discussed and agreed upon with the Client before the cleaning technician is dispatched to the property.
PRICE INCREASES:
Clients are given advance notice of any price increases. Green Cleaning reserves the right to raise prices at any time.
QUALITY CONTROL:
Green Cleaning conducts random quality control checks on properties to ensure the highest standards of cleanliness and service. These checks are performed during the final phase of cleaning and will not affect the stay of your guests.
If, for any reason, you have quality concerns regarding the cleaning service, please notify us within 24 hours of the completion of the cleaning. We will promptly dispatch a cleaning technician to address and remedy the situation.
DAMAGES AND MISSING ITEMS:
Our cleaning technicians are trained to be vigilant in identifying any damages or missing items upon arrival at your property. In the event that a cleaning technician notices any damages or items that are missing, they will document it and the Client will be notified immediately.
Employees of Green Cleaning are covered under our insurance policy in the event that they accidentally break something during an appointment. We trust that our staff will report any damages they cause, and we will work with the Client to rectify the situation.
PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEOGRAPHY:
To ensure that quality cleaning is occurring, we may ask our Cleaning Technicians to take photos of each room before and/or after cleaning. Photos will be taken to document any pre-existing damage and as a reference when items are removed for cleaning and then placed back (countertops, vanities, etc.). Unless otherwise discussed, photos may be used on our website, social media accounts, and for other marketing purposes. No photo will be used that contains any identifying or personal information. This includes addresses, contact information, client names, or photos of individuals. Please let us know if you would like to opt out of using your photos for marketing purposes.
NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES:

OUR GUARANTEE:
We want you to be absolutely 100% satisfied with the cleaning service you receive. Please report any concerns within 24 hours after the service. We will return and re-clean the area(s) of concern at no cost to you.
