What this checklist covers

The same order in every home is what makes a cleaner fast: top to bottom so dust falls onto what you have not cleaned yet, dry before wet, and floors last on your way out. A checklist keeps a helper's clean the same as yours.

Leave the customer a note of anything you noticed: a leak under a sink, a broken item, supplies running low.
