We’ve all seen it. The angry tirades against the heat are only just beginning. A friend recently posted on social media that “never in a million years” would they ever move in August. Why did she express this strong opinion? Because she had just moved. In Texas. In August.

According to Google search results, searches for “moving” in Texas reach an all-time high between late July and early August. And much to the dismay of those poor facilities managers who find themselves booking movers during this peak season, these are the hottest months of the whole year!

No matter how deep your office is in the cozy air conditioning of your building, the in-and-out that is involved in a company move means that no amount of air conditioning will be able to combat the onslaught of heat and humidity brought on by a Texas summer. And whether you’re in a medical office or an accounting office, there are sure to be loads upon loads of files to move, which means those doors will be opening a lot. And as the heat swelters, the boxes move, and the dust settles, it’s time to think about preparing the facility itself to be turned back over to the leasing company.

You name it, we’ve cleaned it! Chances are, if your organization is facing a move, this could be a new experience for you to navigate. With thirty years of experience, Sonlight has overseen the move-out and move-in cleaning process for dozens of organizations. We can help you navigate through the process seamlessly and work with you to create a customized cleaning routine in your “new digs” once you settle in!

So what’s typically involved in a company move-out cleaning job? Here is a sampling of a few things that may be included on a commercial property move-out checklist:

• Nails should be removed and all holes repaired
• Stains on flooring should be treated (copy machines are notorious for leaving black powder embedded in carpet)
• Windows, window sills, cabinetry, and walls should be clean
• Carpets should be cleaned (Sonlight offers extraction carpet cleaning, which can help minimize the indents left in your carpet by heavy pieces of furniture)
• Everything should be thoroughly cleaned

When the lease is up and it’s time to change your company accommodations, it’s safe to say you won’t be able to expect the temperature to be so… accommodating.
