What Is The Best Day Of The Week To Book Your Tenancy Cleaning?

Have you already chosen your tenancy cleaning contractor? Good for you! Now you have to pick the most suitable day for the job. While many people go for the first available date because they want to cross the task off their moving-out chore list, here is why you should adopt a different mindset and go for one specific day of the week instead.

If you are changing your place of residence, let’s assume that you are still a relatively young professional with a job. The last thing you want is to schedule the end of tenancy cleaning procedure on a working day. Many contractors insist that you be present for the final quality check-up, and it is a very poor idea to do it after work when you are tired, distracted, and quite probably annoyed.

Suppose you operate on the standard Monday-to-Friday working week. That leaves the weekend as the only optimal option. I would personally eliminate Saturday for two reasons – first, you should give yourself one day completely free of worries, even in the middle of your transition period. Second, the city traffic in London and Highgate, in particular, is the slowest on Sunday, making it much easier for the tenancy cleaning crew to arrive at your place on time. An extra advantage is that your landlord is likely to be in a far better mood on a calm Sunday than a busy working Wednesday, for example.

However, Sunday does have one disadvantage – most people share that thought process and book their appointments for the last day of the week. If you want to squeeze in your tenancy cleaning, plan it well in advance and notify your contractor ASAP.
