After Party Cleaning in Yorkville

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 Yorkville

Yorkville sits on the Fox River at the far west edge of the Chicago suburbs, where farm fields turn into new subdivisions. The subdivisions on the edge of town are newer houses on wide lots, with attached garages and basements. Closer to downtown the houses are older and smaller. From the first plow run to the thaw, road salt and field dirt come in together at the back door. Spring means mud at the door from yards on newer lots that have not filled in yet, and basements that hold damp air.

Cleaning here starts at the door and works down. Entryways and mudrooms take the salt and the field dirt, and basements need attention that a condo never does. A subdivision house can carry more floor space and more bathrooms than the room count suggests, so a whole-house clean runs longer than it sounds.
