Pre-cleaning checklist for customer

I’m redesigning my estimate sheet, which previously contained a checklist for how the customer could prepare for the cleaning. I’m considering dropping that part because no one seems to do it anyway. What do you guys think?

In case you’re interested, this is what I had before:

actually i am surprised they even accept that.

Idk, isn’t it reasonable though that there might be some things you need to do when someone is coming to do work in your home?

I would drop it. If anything I would just have upon our arrival we would aprreciate it if you would please move any breakables away from windows thanks. .
They still forget an you’ll have to remind them when you get there , but at lest you gave them notice
Maybe Aliso put we are not responsible for moving large items such as grand pianos An beds
You just have to remember to ask if any glass is tinted before we start.
You want to keep everything short An sweet. Jmo

Take it out. Specially if they pay no attention to it anyway.
I do ask customers to remove sill items which are more of a pita than furniture.
I figure tint, existing damage, heat treated glass are my job to check on not theirs.
Blinds and curtains have never been a problem and people seem to almost always
take care of their pets.

I think your close rate would increase if you removed it from your estimate sheet

Add a checkbox “Make me a sammich” and see if anyone notices. If not, then just remove it.

Personally the only thing I’d have on a checklist for a customer is:

“Please pick up any and all landmines left behind from your pet before we arrive.”
