Airbnb Cleaning Checklist App

At MadeComfy, our professional cleaners diligently follow a detailed checklist, ensuring our short-term rentals match the high standards guests expect. We understand that cleaning for short-term rentals is vastly different from a typical house clean.

When done right, it leads to five-star reviews and boosts bookings, as properties gain a reputation for outstanding cleanliness. But it's more than just cleanliness; it's about creating an environment that exceeds guest expectations, encouraging repeat visits.

To help you achieve this, we've developed an interactive cleaning checklist you can use on any device. Forget about old PDFs, Excel files, or Word documents. This is your handy, pocket-sized Airbnb cleaning checklist app, ready for use anytime, anywhere.

Whether you're a MadeComfy host or a professional cleaner, understanding the right cleaning tools is key. It's not just about saving time or ensuring a thorough clean, but also about setting the stage for the next guests' memorable stay.

From humble basics like a dustpan and broom to specialised allies like a sturdy vacuum cleaner or a microfibre duster, each piece of equipment has its unique role to play.

Think of this as your starting line. As you continue to host, you'll discover more items that fit your specific needs. This isn't just a list, it's your guide to upholding your property's quality and creating memorable guest experiences, time and again.

• Mop Set: Your go-to for gleaming hard floors such as tiles, wood, or linoleum. Mops can reach into hidden corners, erase stains, and sanitize the floor.
• Microfibre Duster: The microfibre material is a dust magnet, making it a breeze to clean hard-to-reach areas, delicate objects, and surfaces like furniture or electronics without causing damage.
• Broom: Your trusty tool for sweeping up large, dry debris and dust. It's a time-saver for cleaning large open floor areas swiftly and effortlessly.

Your Airbnb Cleaning Product Essentials

As a MadeComfy host or a cleaning professional, a comprehensive cleaning checklist is your secret weapon. With this list of cleaning supplies, you can ensure every corner of your property shines. From a versatile multi-purpose cleaner to an indispensable mould remover, these items ensure high cleaning standards and guest satisfaction, every time.

• Oven and BBQ Cleaner: Ovens and BBQ grills can be hotspots for food debris and grease. A specialized oven and BBQ cleaner can cut through this grime, leaving these cooking areas sparkling clean, which is especially crucial in an Airbnb where guests expect clean cooking facilities.
• Multi-purpose Cleaner (Surface and Glass): This cleaner's versatility is its strength. It can be used to clean multiple surfaces, including glass, making it a valuable addition to your cleaning supplies. Shiny, streak-free windows and surfaces can significantly enhance the look and feel of your Airbnb property.
• Outdoor Glass Cleaner: Exterior cleanliness is just as important as the interior. An outdoor glass cleaner is crucial for cleaning windows, patio tables, or any other outdoor glass surfaces. Clean outdoor glass can enhance the overall appearance of your property and create a positive first impression.
• Dishwashing Liquid: A clean kitchen is a must in any Airbnb property. A good quality dishwashing liquid ensures all dishes, pots, and pans are grease-free and sparkling clean, ready for your next guest to use.
• Cream Cleanser (Light Mould Remover): Bathrooms are prone to mould due to the damp environment. A cream cleanser acts as a light mould remover, perfect for maintaining cleanliness and preventing the build-up of mould in bathroom areas.
• Paste Cleaner (Light Mould Remover): Similar to a cream cleanser, a paste cleaner is also used for light mould removal. It's great for those harder-to-reach areas and can be useful for maintaining cleanliness in bathroom and kitchen tiles.
• Mould Remover (Heavy Duty): For more stubborn mould, a heavy-duty mould remover is essential. It can clean larger mould infestations, ensuring a healthier and safer environment for your guests.
• Floor Cleaner: Floors cover large areas of your property and tend to accumulate dirt and dust quickly. A good floor cleaner will ensure your floors are not just clean but also maintain their shine, contributing to a tidy and inviting Airbnb property.
