Prepare the Office for Christmas

 
The most important element of decorating for Christmas is preparation! Set aside a day for an office clean. When putting your day-to-day decor away to make room for your Christmas decorations ensure you clean them before putting them into storage. 

Make sure you clean all areas. Consider where you’ll be putting decorations, whether it’s desks, window sills or entrances. This will give you a nice clean base for your decorations and help you maintain cleanliness over the festive period.

Tip: Do the same when you are putting away your Christmas decorations. Leave the office clean and tidy ready to return after Christmas break.

Our Seasonal Cleaning Guide

 

Here are a few things to focus on during your Christmas clean, especially if you’re going to be closing down for a few days:

    • Check fridges: remove anything due to go off. Leave the fridge clean and ready for when you return. 
    • Make an inventory list: Order supplies you’ll need ready for the new year so you’re not rushing after Christmas. 
    • Deep clean desks: remove everything, organise and sanitise before the day you’re breaking up for Christmas so everyone can return to a fresh work environment.
    • Sanitise all touch points: It’s cold and flu season, so focusing on touch points that get regularly used and sanitising regularly is best practice for preventing the spread of germs. 
    • Don’t Forget the Bins: Empty all bins before closing down. You don’t want to return to unsanitary conditions or pest issues. 

Choosing a Christmas Tree 

 
There are pros and cons to both artificial and real Christmas trees. The most important thing to consider when choosing a tree for your place of business is how much work it will be!

We love real trees, but if you are responsible for cleaning, think about how often you’ll need to clean if you pick real vs artificial.  If you have an artificial Christmas tree just be sure to give it a good wipe down before putting it up as no doubt it has collected some dust over the year, the same goes for any decorations!
