Professional Janitorial Services VS In-House Janitorial Services

28 Mar 2014 11:59 AM | IJCSA - (Administrator)

If you own or operate a business it is highly likely that you have had the debate on whether to hire professional janitorial services or whether to have the janitorial services the building needs performed by employees of the company itself.

In-House Janitorial Services:

  • Having employees on the payroll that do the cleaning of the building may be more cost effective
    You will need to buy all of the equipment for these individuals to perform the services with
    The equipment will be tax deductible for your company
    You will need to buy all of the cleaning supplies these employees will need
    The supplies will be tax deductible
    You will need to build storage closets for all of the cleaning supplies and equipment these individuals use
    You will need to keep books on the chemicals that the cleaning supplies have in them and what is supposed to be done if someone were to come into contact with any of these chemicals. These books are required by law
    You will need to train the employees to do the cleaning in the safest manner, the most cost effective manner, and the proper manner
    You will have to have these individuals on the payroll, your insurance program, and all other employee incentive programs
    Can be scheduled to work when the majority of other employees are not present
    Can be instructed to do jobs that may not typically fall into the description of professional cleaning crews
    You have less concerns of someone outside the company learning of trade secrets

Professional Janitorial Services

  • Are tax deductible
    These companies come with their own supplies and manpower
    They may not do all of the cleaning and maintenance tasks you wish to have performed and you may still have to hire someone to do some of the tasks
    Have their own equipment or they can use equipment you provide
    Can be expensive if you require a daily cleaning service
    May require that someone from the offices be on the premises while they are doing their work
    Can be scheduled to come when there will be very few employees or customers on the premises

However you decide to get your premises cleaned you know that they must be cleaned. The only way to truly see which style of cleaning services is the most economical is to use both types for a period of time and compare the costs associated with each.

Janitorial Services may be provided by special companies that do nothing but clean other companies. Janitorial services may include upkeep of lights, air filters, and some equipment. You can get more information from janitorial services Fort Worth.
