Unique Considerations

Safety Hazards: Vacant properties may pose risks such as broken windows, exposed wiring, or mold. Always assess the property for hazards before beginning the cleaning process.
Pest Infestations: Vacant properties can attract pests. Inspect for signs of rodent or insect infestations, and take appropriate measures to address these issues before cleaning.
Utilities: Ensure that the water and electricity are on, if possible. This will facilitate easier cleaning and allow for the use of certain equipment.

Special Equipment

Industrial Vacuum Cleaner: Designed to handle larger debris and deep clean carpets or floors, making it essential for thorough cleaning.
Pressure Washer: Useful for cleaning outdoor areas, sidewalks, and siding. It can remove dirt, grime, and even mold from surfaces effectively.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Includes gloves, masks, and goggles to protect against dust, chemicals, and potential allergens.

Create a Cleaning Plan: Before starting, outline which areas need attention and prioritize high-traffic or visibly dirty areas.
Use Eco-Friendly Cleaning Products: Opt for environmentally friendly cleaning supplies to minimize chemical exposure and promote sustainability.
Document the Condition: Take photos before and after cleaning to document the state of the property. This is helpful for property owners or real estate agents.

Waste Disposal Regulations: Ensure all waste is disposed of according to local laws regarding hazardous materials and construction debris.
Pest Control Compliance: Follow local guidelines for pest control, particularly if you find infestations during the cleaning process.
Building Codes for Repairs: If any repairs are needed during cleaning, ensure compliance with local building codes and obtain necessary permits.
