Cleaning tailored to banks and financial institutions

Branches and call centers run on trust and uptime. We align cleaning with business hours, cash-handling rules, and surveillance zones so public areas shine, staff spaces stay healthy, and sensitive areas remain protected.

Security-first operations

  • Escorted access, key logs, and alarm procedures
  • Camera-aware work and no blind spots created
  • Confidentiality and optional NDAs for crews
  • No access to vault interiors, drawers, or cash

Customer-ready presentation

  • Fingerprints removed from glass, doors, and kiosks
  • Spotless floors from vestibule to teller line
  • ATMs and touchpoints wiped with electronics-safe methods
  • Restrooms restocked and sanitized

Healthy workplace

  • HEPA vacuuming and microfiber soil capture
  • Neutral cleaners for VCT/LVT and terrazzo care
  • Scheduled carpet and mat maintenance
  • Day porter support for peak hours

We follow bank rules and signage. Crews never handle cash, open drawers, enter vault interiors, or access systems. ATM service is exterior cleaning only unless contracted with your ATM vendor.

Compliance and credentials that fit financial environments

Confidentiality & GLBA awareness

Staff sign confidentiality commitments. Training reinforces privacy expectations common in GLBA-governed environments and limits exposure to nonpublic information.

Access control discipline

Key custody, badge sign-out, opening/closing checklists, and supervisor spot checks keep cleaning within authorized zones and hours.

OSHA & SDS management

Labeled chemicals, updated SDS binders, slip and fall prevention, and ladder and electrical safety training protect customers and employees.

How onboarding works for banks

1) Scope & security onboarding

Site walk, risk mapping, alarm and camera notes, access levels, and cleaning specs by zone. We document ATM vendor limits and vault restrictions. All crew members are background-checked and badged.

2) Launch plan

After-hours start with a first-week plan for floors, glass, and restrooms. We set communication with the branch manager and establish a simple issue escalation path.

3) Steady-state service

Nightly janitorial plus optional day porter. Seasonal mat swaps, salt pickup, and scheduled floor care are added to avoid slip hazards and extend finishes.

4) QA & continuous improvement

Supervisors conduct inspections, share photos, and correct issues quickly. Quarterly reviews align service with traffic trends, staffing, and audit dates.

Bank cleaning FAQs

Can you clean during business hours without disrupting customers?
Yes. Day porters handle discreet touchpoint wipes, restrooms, and lobby resets while staying visible enough for safety and invisible enough for service. We avoid teller queues and customer conversations.
How do you clean ATMs and kiosks safely?
We only clean exterior surfaces. We use electronics-safe wipes on screens and keypads and avoid spraying liquids. Internal service is left to your ATM provider per contract.
Will your team sign NDAs and follow our access rules?
Absolutely. We sign confidentiality agreements on request, maintain key custody logs, and follow opening/closing checklists aligned to your security policy.
What floor care schedule do you recommend for branches?
Most branches benefit from nightly dust mopping, weekly scrubbing for hard floors, quarterly scrub and recoat, and annual strip and finish depending on traffic. Carpet areas get monthly encapsulation and annual extraction.
Are you insured and do you background-check staff?
Yes. We are bonded and insured. All front-line staff assigned to financial sites are background-checked and trained on confidentiality and camera-aware work zones.
Do you service vaults or cash-handling equipment?
No. We clean exterior surfaces around these areas but do not touch cash, drawers, safes, or the inside of vault rooms. Work near these zones is escorted per your policy.
