4 Tips to Prepare Your Facility for Holiday Crowds

October 30, 2024

As the holiday season approaches, businesses are gearing up for a surge in foot traffic. ABCO Cleaning Products shared key tips to help facilities prepare for the influx of customers:

  1. Use sustainable cleaning tools. With 65% of consumers preferring to buy from sustainable companies, adopting environmentally friendly practices is important. Consider using cleaning tools certified by a reputable third-party organization, like Green Seal®. This not only helps avoid greenwashing tactics but also demonstrates your commitment to sustainability.
  2. Optimize waste reduction and recycling. More visitors mean more trash. Ensure waste and recycling bins are easily accessible and emptied regularly to prevent overflow. Implementing a waste management program can decrease your facility’s waste and carbon emissions, helping minimize your environmental impact. 
  3. Increase cleaning frequency in high-traffic areas. During the holiday rush, high-traffic areas like entrances, restrooms, and common spaces face more wear and tear. Increase the cleaning frequency in these zones to help keep your facility consistently clean.
  4. Maintain a stock of essential cleaning supplies. Plan for the busy season by stocking up on essential cleaning supplies. This helps ensure you’re well-prepared for quick clean-ups, keeping your facility ready for anything the holiday crowds bring.

“As you prepare for the holiday rush, prioritizing both cleanliness and sustainability is crucial,” said Carlos Albir Jr., ABCO Cleaning Products vice president of operations. “Adopting environmentally friendly cleaning practices helps create an environment that benefits both customers and the planet.”
