DIY Office Cleaning Tips: How to Keep Your Workplace Tidy Between Professional Cleans
Keeping your office clean between professional services (such as commercial cleaning providers like Shineo) helps maintain hygiene, employee productivity, and a positive first impression for clients.
Create a Simple Daily Cleaning Checklist
One of the most effective DIY strategies is implementing a structured daily cleaning routine.
Recommended Daily Tasks:
- Wipe down desks and shared surfaces
- Empty trash bins
- Sanitize high-touch points (door handles, keyboards, phones)
- Clean breakroom counters
- Spot clean glass and mirrors
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), high-touch surfaces should be cleaned regularly to reduce the spread of germs in shared environments.
Why It Works:
- Prevents buildup of dirt and bacteria
- Reduces long-term cleaning costs
- Keeps your office consistently presentable
Focus on High-Touch Surfaces
High-touch surfaces accumulate germs quickly in office environments.
Common High-Touch Areas:
- Door handles
- Light switches
- Elevator buttons
- Shared keyboards and mice
- Printer touchscreens
- Kitchen appliances
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recommends maintaining clean work environments to protect employee health and safety.

Every office clean covers workstations, floors, kitchens and bathrooms, bins, glass, and high-touch surfaces. Deep cleaning, carpet steam cleaning, and window cleaning are available as add-ons or scheduled services.

Most Sydney offices prefer after-hours cleaning — cleaners arrive once the last person leaves and finish before the next morning. No disruption to staff, no interference with operations. We handle all access and key management.
Pricing
Standard cleaning starts from $30–$40/hr daytime. After-hours and before-hours service with access management ranges from $45 to $75/hr. Small offices under 100m² typically pay $150–$250 per clean. Quotes are free and provided in writing within 24 hours.
