Warehouses are fundamental for many industries. They provide commercial storage space that can help make shipping more efficient. They are often located strategically throughout the country to help with the shipping process. One thing that many businesses look for in warehousing is the quality of the warehouse. Security, temperature control, and of course, cleanliness all impact the value of a warehouse to potential clients. They want to make sure the items they store regardless of storage time will be kept in good condition. Plus, debris and messes can slow down operations in a warehouse. For that reason, it is important for warehousing facilities to keep up a good cleaning schedule. In this article, we will discuss a few ways to handle warehouse cleaning.
How To Sanitize & Disinfect a Warehouse
Sanitization and disinfection is important for your team. Keeping an area clean can prevent the spread of illness or bacteria. Disinfectants should be used to clean any touched surface that is frequently handled, including doors, shelves, and other spaces that are common touchpoints for your team. You need to use disinfectant that is approved by the EPA or recommended by the CDC to kill viruses and bacteria. Employee restrooms, break rooms, or other areas of the property should also be cleaned and disinfected on a regular basis. Trash cans throughout the facility should be emptied daily by the team.
How Do You Clean Warehouse Floors
The floors of a warehouse can get dirty and this can cause problems with day to day operation or potentially lead to dust and debris getting on the items that are stored in the warehouse. The best way to clean a warehouse floor is to sweep it. A battery-powered walk-behind sweeper is an effective way to pick up small and large debris quickly. With Haaga Sweepers this can be done even faster with their patented three-brush technology. After sweeping a floor, some warehouses will routinely mop and dry floors for greater cleaning.
Cleaning Equipment
Lastly, it is important to clean and maintain your equipment. Forklifts should be cleaned and maintained on a routine basis to ensure that they do not get damaged. On a monthly basis you should consider rotating items in the warehouse, cleaning under shelves and equipment, and doing inspections for leaks, mold, or other issues that could cause problems for your stored items.
