First impressions count, especially when clients visit your workplace. Your meeting room is often the first space they’ll see, and its condition can speak volumes about your professionalism.
Here’s a practical guide to keeping meeting rooms clean, organised, and client-ready at all times.
6 Tips For A Professional Meeting Room
Establish a Daily Cleaning Routine
Even if you have professional cleaners, a quick daily tidy-up makes a big difference.
- Wipe down tables and chairs with a disinfectant cloth.
- Remove used cups, plates, and rubbish.
- Straighten chairs and check for marks or stains on upholstery.
Tip: Assign responsibility to a specific person or team so it’s never overlooked.
Prioritise High-Touch Areas
Meeting rooms see frequent contact with certain surfaces:
- Door handles
- Light switches
- Remote controls
- Presentation equipment
These should be disinfected daily to reduce germ spread and maintain a fresh appearance.
Manage Cables and Technology
Loose wires and cluttered equipment can make a professional space look messy.
- Use cable tidies or under-desk trays.
- Keep presentation screens and projectors dust-free.
- Store unused tech in a cupboard or drawer.
Keep Supplies Stocked
A client-ready meeting room should have:
- Pens and notepads
- A working presentation screen or monitor
- Fresh water and clean glasses
- Charging points and adaptors
Stock items neatly and check after every meeting.
Use a Professional Deep Cleaning Schedule
While daily upkeep is important, a professional commercial cleaning service ensures your meeting room stays pristine.
- Schedule deep cleans at least once a month.
- Include carpet cleaning, upholstery cleaning, and window polishing.
- For South West businesses, choose a local cleaning company that understands your industry’s needs.
Incorporate Pleasant Touches
- Fresh flowers or plants (dust-free)
- Light, fresh scent (avoid overpowering fragrances)
- Branded stationery or brochures displayed neatly
Small details show clients you care about their comfort.
Meeting Room Cleaning Checklist
Before every client meeting:
- Wipe tables and chairs
- Remove rubbish and used items
- Straighten chairs and arrange neatly
