For many people it’s very difficult to keep the workplace clean, even if your company uses a commercial cleaning service there are people that make your office messy.

Here are several practical tips that will help you to keep your office clean between the visits of the janitorial service.

1. Everything should have a its’ own place

It’s very important to have special organizers for the stuff you have on your desk and at the office in general. Containers, shelves, drawers…all of these things are very important for keeping your office clean.

2. Every worker should have a trash can

It’s very important to understand that every office worker needs a trash can, because the further a worker should go to throw the garbage, the less often he does throw it. Don’t think that it should be something large…no, just on the contrary, small trash cans will suit perfectly.

3. Use files

In order to keep your desk clean, use files. Keeping the piles of papers in files will help you to have extra space on your desk for more efficient work.

4. Don’t forget to throw old stuff

Don’t collect unnecessary stuff and get rid of everything that you don’t need or use.

5. All the food should not be placed on your desk.

Keep your food in a special place in the fridge. If your office doesn’t have a fridge, than keep the food in a special drawer where you store only food. No papers or documents should be here.

6. Clean your computer regularly

You should get rid of the crumbs on your computer regularly. You may use a special brush to get rid of the crumbs, dust and dirt.

7. Use special wet wipes

Have some extra wet wipes and tissues just in case.

8. Use air fresheners

Air fresheners and extra cleanness to your office and make the area smell clean and nice.
