After Party Cleaning in Denver

What after party cleaning covers

• Cups, bottles, cans and plates collected room by room
• Trash bagged and taken out to the curb or dumpster
• Spills on carpet and upholstery treated while they are still fresh
• Kitchen counters, the sink and the stovetop after a night of cooking
• Bathrooms cleaned and restocked after a night of heavy use
• Furniture moved back where it was, decorations and tape taken down

What is usually not included

• A stain that has already dried into a rug, which needs an extraction machine rather than a spot treatment
• Damage: a scorched countertop or a cracked table is repair, not cleaning
• The yard, the patio and the pool area, unless you ask up front

When to book after party cleaning

Book this for the day after an event at home or in a rented venue, and book it in advance — the good slots the morning after a weekend go early.

How long it takes

How long it takes is driven by the number of guests, not by the size of the place. A house left until Monday takes longer than one done the morning after, because everything has had time to set.

What makes the price go up

• Confetti, glitter and balloon weights, all picked up by hand before anything else starts
• Red wine, candle wax or grease that has had all night to set
• A rented venue with a handover time the next morning
• Glassware and dishes washed by hand because they will not all fit in one load

What to ask before you book

• Can you come tomorrow morning, and what time would you start?
• Do you take the bags away, or leave them by the door?
• There is red wine on the rug. Can you treat it, or do I need carpet cleaning?

What after party cleaning looks like in Denver

Denver sits high and dry. The air holds little moisture, so dust stays fine and shows up again quickly on flat surfaces. Snow comes and goes through the cold months, and the sand and magnesium chloride spread on the roads rides in on boots and dries to a pale film by the door. Older neighborhoods run to brick bungalows, and hardwood floors and forced-air heat are common in them.

Entryways and floors come first here, since road grit and de-icer film dull a hardwood finish if they sit. Dusting comes around more often than it would in a wet climate, and vents get attention because the heat runs long. Windows are worth doing carefully: dry air and hard light leave every streak visible.
