The Hidden Costs of the Lowest Bid in Janitorial Services

• Hidden Costs: A lower price might not include essential services such as restroom restocking, deep cleaning, or disinfecting. These “extras” can quickly add up.
• Reliability Issues: Companies offering rock-bottom prices often struggle with high employee turnover, resulting in missed cleanings and inconsistent service.
• Liability Risks: Some budget providers lack proper insurance, leaving you vulnerable to potential liability in case of an accident.

The Importance of Reference Letters in the Janitorial Office Cleaning Industry

When running a local janitorial office cleaning business, reputation and trustworthiness play a crucial role in attracting new clients. One of the most effective ways to build credibility and stand out from the competition is by collecting and utilizing reference letters. These letters serve as powerful testimonials from satisfied clients, showcasing your reliability, professionalism, and quality of service. Take a look at our list of reference letters that span the past 45 years here.

Why Reference Letters Matter

• Builds Trust and Credibility
  

Clients want to hire a cleaning service they can rely on, especially when granting access to their offices after hours. A strong reference letter from a previous or existing client reassures potential customers that your business is trustworthy and delivers excellent results.

• Differentiates You from Competitors

With many janitorial companies competing for the same contracts, a well-crafted reference letter can set you apart. Potential clients are more likely to choose a company with proven experience backed by positive feedback from reputable businesses.

• Strengthens Bids and Proposals

When submitting bids for office cleaning contracts, including reference letters adds credibility to your proposal. It demonstrates that you have a track record of satisfied clients who are willing to vouch for your services.

• Encourages Word-of-Mouth Marketing

Reference letters not only help with direct marketing efforts but also encourage word-of-mouth referrals. Clients who provide a reference are likely to recommend your services to others, expanding your client base.

Tucson Office Cleaning Breakdown

Let’s breakdown office cleaning here in Tucson. Here are a few key items to look for when hiring a Tucson office cleaning service. If you are looking for the lowest bidder then stop reading. In this article I’ll cover references, how long have they been in business in Tucson, are they just a national franchise or a quality local service that you can trust.

Reference letters are very important in the bidding process. A new company may not have any and could be a huge risk since there is no established trustworthy track record from them as a company and what quality of service they provide. An established company with no references is also a major red flag. References show a pattern of getting the job done with people and a company that are trustworthy as well as the level of service that is provided.

How long have they been in business here in Tucson? This shows how stable they are and if they are committed to servicing the Tucson janitorial office cleaning market. Are they going to close shop and leave Tucson? We have seen it before over our past 45 years in business, all of which has been here in Tucson.

Do you know if the janitorial service is hiding behind a national franchise name? You will wind up paying for the money you save. Over the years I have talked to many unsatisfied office managers, property managers and business owners that went with a franchise thinking they must know what they are doing, right?  Once they find out that isn’t the case, that’s when they called Desert Cleaning. We’ll come in and straighten the cleaning mess and bring everything up to speed and keep it there. We have done this countless times, our reference letters can back this up.

Desert Cleaning has been in the office cleaning business in Tucson for 45 years and there is a reason - we do the job and take care of all of our accounts. And we know and understand the sectors of businesses we service, whether that’s a commercial office building, shopping centers, industrial businesses and more.

Local Janitorial Service & Daytime Cleaning

Are you looking for a janitorial service in Tucson that will service in the daytime and is local? Well, you’re in the right place! Many people have asked us, is it possible to receive janitorial service during the daytime? Any time works, we can work with your schedule and provide you with services at any time. We have fully trained and dedicated staff working around the clock, servicing a vast variety of companies and industries all across Tucson and surrounding areas. Let’s take a look at the cost, benefits, and drawbacks to having a daytime service.

It does cost more for daytime janitorial service here in Tucson. Finding someone who is able to work during the daytime is slimmer and tougher to staff. Since the majority of our work is performed in the evening, usually after 5:00 pm. It also depends on the situation and location. All this adds to the cost, but can be accommodated.

The waiting time taken for someone on our staff waiting for someone on the phone or a meeting can be difficult to accommodate. Then people are using the restrooms, break rooms and all other areas of a building when the janitor is there during their job. Dusting is almost impossible to do while people are in their office.

What are the benefits to daytime cleaning? When the office is high security due to it either being a manufacturing/distribution facility, the type of business it is or due to the contracts and projects the client is working on all usually want daytime cleaning. All of these different types of companies generally have important items and confidential information and in this situation it is better for everyone to clean in the daytime.

A local janitor service is the number one way to get the janitor service you want. The local service gets more involved and provides a much better janitorial experience. Also, the money stays in the Tucson economy.

If you need a Tucson local janitor service call or email us and we’ll put a comprehensive office cleaning proposal for you. Some companies look for the cheapest office cleaning service and others get the service they want.
