Trashout and Maid Services

The trashout and corresponding initial maid service are an extremely important part of making the property marketable.  The trashout includes the removal of all interior and exterior debris; this is completed based on client-specific parameters. If the contractor encounters any personal property, he or she will provide a bid to the client to remove and store the personal items for 30 days.  Safeguard generally does not recommend proceeding with the trashout until any remaining personals have been addressed.   The contractors follow specific parameters given by the client.

After the debris is removed, the initial maid service is completed.  The contractors receive a detailed checklist of items that must be completed as part of the maid service. The baseboards, light-switch and outlet covers, light fixtures and air vents/ducts will all be wiped down and cobwebs will be removed. Any dirty, non-washable window covers will be removed as well.  The bathroom and kitchen counters, cabinets, and drawers will be wiped down and the floors will be swept. Hard-surface floors will be mopped, and carpeted areas will be vacuumed.  The goal is to make the property clean, and therefore attractive to prospective buyers
