Printable checklist
Classrooms, halls and offices
Classrooms, hallways and offices get cleaning suited to their surfaces and use. Desks, door handles and light switches are wiped, and the trash and recycling go out.
Restrooms and everyday supplies
Student and staff restrooms are cleaned and sanitized every night. We refill soap, paper products and liners.
Cleaning after a school renovation
After a school renovation, we clear away the dust and building residue the project leaves. Rooms are cleaned as the contractor hands them back, then return to the nightly routine.
A clean start to each school day
Students and staff walk into the same rooms every morning. Our after-hours cleaning clears the trash, cleans the surfaces people touch most and sanitizes the restrooms, so the school starts each day fresh and teachers are not working around a cleaning crew.
Between terms, classrooms and hallways can receive periodic floor care or carpet extraction. During class time, a day porter keeps restrooms and common areas in order and supplies stocked.
Classrooms, restrooms and common spaces
In classrooms, the evening visit empties trash and recycling and cleans desks, tables and the surfaces students touch most, such as door handles and light switches. Restrooms are cleaned, sanitized and restocked with paper, soap and liners. Hallways, the front office and the staff room get surface cleaning and waste collection.
Larger shared rooms, such as a library or multipurpose room, take longer on each visit. Listing them with your request keeps the schedule realistic and the route complete.
Setting a frequency for a Gilroy school
Restrooms and classrooms in daily use are cleaned every school night. Offices and the staff room follow the same nightly routine or run on fewer visits each week, and quieter rooms, such as storage and seldom-used meeting rooms, sit on a lighter rhythm.
Events change the picture. Back-to-school nights, performances and sports days bring families into the building, and a one-time visit before or after keeps halls and restrooms presentable while the nightly routine carries on unchanged.
Cleaners on campus and the grounds outside
Our cleaners work after hours, around the student work and records left in classrooms and offices. Each person on the school route has passed a background check. Tell us which rooms are locked at night, where the crew enters and who to contact on site.
Outside, grounds care keeps lawns and shrubs trimmed around the buildings, and pressure washing cleans the walkways students use every day.
Getting ready for a new term
The week before students return is the busiest cleaning window of the year. Classrooms that sat closed collect dust on desks and sills, restrooms need a full restock, and rooms treated over the break have to be clear of equipment before teachers set up.
Plan that week with us early. Request the pre-term visit through the quote form and list the rooms teachers move into first, so those are finished before anyone carries in a box of supplies.
School cleaning costs in Gilroy
Schools usually pay at or a little below office rates, which published 2026 data puts at $0.16 to $0.25 a square foot a month in Gilroy. Classrooms with hard floors and simple layouts clean quickly, so many schools sit near the bottom. Student restrooms, gyms and multipurpose rooms used for evening events pull the price up. Lunch areas need daily floor and table work. Carpeted offices and a library add vacuuming. After-school programs that keep rooms busy late leave us a shorter window, and that adds crew.
Picture a 24,000-square-foot private K-8 school with 14 classrooms, a front office, a library and six restroom blocks. Cleaned every school night at $0.17, it costs $4,080 a month. In summer, with no students in the rooms, the routine runs lighter. Breaks are when we do floor work and carpet extraction, priced as separate jobs. Cleaning after summer renovation work is priced the same way.
A few useful answers
Common questions
Can you strip and refinish our hallways over summer?
Yes. Summer break is the best time to strip and refinish hallway and classroom tile, and scrubbing, recoating or burnishing keeps it bright through the year.
Can you clean once the school day ends?
Yes. Crews arrive after the last class lets out, so the rooms are ready by the next morning.
Do your school cleaners have background checks?
Yes. Every cleaner we send to your school is background-checked.
How often should classrooms be cleaned?
Classrooms in daily use are best cleaned every school night, with deeper floor work saved for breaks between terms.
Can a school get cleaning before an event?
Yes. A one-time visit before or after a school event leaves halls, restrooms and common rooms ready for visitors.
Is cleaning available during summer break?
Yes. Breaks are a good time for floor care, carpet extraction and deeper work in rooms that sit empty.
Which school spaces are part of the nightly routine?
Classrooms, restrooms, hallways, the front office and the staff room, with larger shared rooms added when you list them.
