Tenant Handbook
Cleaning
The offices on the campus are cleaned daily during business hours (5:30AM-7PM).
Desk side trash receptacles are collected every other day whilst restroom, pantrys and kitchens trash is collected daily. On days when desk side trash is not picked up, tenants must empty any perishables from their trash into the pantry/kitchen bins.
Please note that janitorial will not enter locked offices. If you would like trash pickup services on your designated day, please place your trash outside of your door if you anticipate having your office locked when the staff are ready to clean your area.
Restrooms are thoroughly cleaned each day, and also receive “touch ups” as well as restocking services throughout the business day.
All additional requests, comments and janitorial concerns should be directed to your tenant representative who will then contact Transwestern to report these concerns. A representative of our janitorial company will be dispatched to assist you. Please submit any requests/concerns as soon as possible so that we may better service you.
