our boss wont let us go down our rooms first making bed and collecting trash then going through dusting and doing the bathrooms and then going through to vacuum. also they want the bed to look "perfect" the same ammount of sheet on both sides so this leaves out making one side of the bed and then the other but we do enjoy a time per room that we have to keep up near...what else can i do to improve my speed.
Answers: I was a guide housekeeper.
first...pull all soiled linens and towels from the room along beside all garbage. Clean bathroom, wipe headboards, tabletops as you walk back to your pushcart to put all bathroom accessories away.
If you center yourself at the run out of the bed, then center the sheet and fluff, letting it fall on the bed. It should be even near experience. Then toss the blanket over the sheet in the same deportment. Tuck both at the center of the bed, working your way to the edges. Pull all sheets straight, incorporate comforter, and complete bed. Clean mirrors and vacuum on your way out.
You should be able to seize yourself down to 12 minures per single room with the extra 8 minutes for asecond bed, if there is one. Practice.
I would incorporate to the previous answer by saying that you should keep a record of items you need so that you only enjoy to "go and retrieve" items once. I found that it helped me from making unnecessary trips, and it help me to get all the items surrounded by the room correct before it was inspected, thus in your favour time on the inspectors end.
Also if you get alike rooms in the hotel your times will increase because you've done all the adjectives cleaning and dusting...just up to maintaining after that. If you rotate section this might be harder.
