2024 Car Dealership Janitorial Service Checklist

A professional cleaning company disinfects a shared common area as part of their car dealership janitorial service checklist for 2024.

No two commercial cleaning companies are the same, but when it comes to keeping your car dealership immaculate, AK Building Services has proudly served Florida businesses for more than 25 years. Our car dealership janitorial service is second to none. When you choose AK Building Services, our experts will tailor your clean based on your unique individual business requirements.

A thorough clean goes beyond trash removal at night. Cleaning, organizing, and maintaining your dealership demands partnering with a professional team who has the perspective on the big picture combined with old-fashioned dedication to doing the job right.

Generally, a janitorial checklist should include all the possibilities a cleaning crew may encounter during their typical visit. When designing a janitorial checklist for your automotive dealership customer, start by understanding what it will realistically take to keep a new car showroom spotless.

2024 Janitorial Checklist for Car Dealerships:

List Exactly Which Areas Need Cleaning:

Most new car stores have the same relevant parts: a showroom, a reception area, a sales floor and financial offices, a service counter, a customer waiting area, public restrooms, and hardscape outside of the building that the customers walk past on approach. Your auto dealership customer may require some or all of those areas to be cleaned on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Some dealerships want every nook and cranny cleaned each day. Some prefer that desks and paperwork remain untouched but want garbage disposed of each evening. Discover what problem areas your client has and develop their program accordingly for tailored car dealership janitorial service.

Identify Cleaning Tasks for Each Unique Area and Itemize Them:

Some of the tasks will apply to more than one area. For example, “dusting and wiping down surfaces” will likely apply to all the parts of the dealership. Reputable commercial cleaners should provide a detailed list that focuses on high-contact surfaces and touch points including windows, doors, countertops, fixtures, and floors. A comprehensive daily program should include tasks like dusting, wiping and disinfection of high-traffic areas, cleaning/sanitizing, and stocking shared areas like coffee stations and restrooms.

Determine a Schedule and Sick to It:


Structural factors of your business – HVAC vents and air returns, stairs, elevators, railings, the exterior of the building, concrete paths, marble floors, carpeting, hardwoods, and laminate surfaces all have differing requirements. While dirt removal and vacuuming will usually be performed each night, advanced and specialized cleaning tasks like floor buffing, carpet cleaning, pressure washing, and upholstery steaming do not always need to be addressed daily. The cadence for these tasks will vary by market, physical location, time of year, weather conditions and just how many visitors you get at your site.

Have a Plan for the Unexpected:

Pipes burst. Hurricanes tear through. Kids throw rocks through windows. When the unexpected mess arrives, be ready to respond. Include a list of emergency and specialized services your cleaning company has available and share it. While your dealership customers may not need these services all the time, providing them with your mitigation strategy for water damage, window replacements, power outages and so on can provide much-needed peace of mind.
