ABCO Shares Tips for Facilities to Spring Clean

MIAMI -- To help facilities stay ahead of increased foot traffic in the spring travel season, ABCO Cleaning Products, a provider of sustainable cleaning tools, is sharing practical tips for maintaining clean, welcoming spaces during peak travel.

“Spring brings increased traffic to many facilities, as travelers move through spaces more frequently,” said Carlos Albir Jr., Vice President of Operations at ABCO Cleaning Products. “Preparing early and equipping cleaning teams with the right tools can make a difference in maintaining cleanliness, safety and overall guest satisfaction.”

Consider the following:  
1.   Identify and target touchpoint hotspots. Door handles, railings, elevator buttons, counters and floors see increased use during peak travel. With over half of guests touching more than two surfaces upon arrival, frequent cleaning helps reduce germ spread and keeps spaces looking clean.

2.   Adjust cleaning schedules to match traffic patterns. Instead of relying on fixed routines, facilities can benefit from flexible cleaning schedules that align with peak arrival and departure times, helping teams address messes before they build up.

3.   Create visible signs of cleanliness. Travelers value spaces that look actively cared for, with 68% of guests citing cleanliness as the most important factor when booking a place. Keeping cleaning visible, supplies stocked and equipment maintained reassures visitors that cleanliness is a top priority.

4.   Evaluate equipment durability. Spring travel puts a lot of stress on cleaning tools. Inspecting mops, brooms and other equipment ahead of peak season helps reduce downtime and ensures teams are working with reliable, effective tools.

5.   Strengthen waste management. Tourists can produce twice as much waste as locals. Placing bins in high-traffic areas, scheduling frequent pickups and separating recyclables help prevent overflow and keep facilities clean.
