How do you handle the cleaning and management of bed linens and sheets?

[Elisa]

Hello everyone 😊

Today, I would love to hear how you handle your bed linens and sheets!

This is an important part of creating a welcoming atmosphere for your guests.

• Some Hosts choose to manage laundry themselves, making sure to wash linens right after each guest checks out and keeping extra sets handy for quick turnaround. 
• Others prefer to take a step back and use a professional laundry service to make things easier, especially if they have a lot of guests or properties.

What’s your approach? Do you prefer to handle it yourself, or do you like the convenience of outsourcing laundry? 🧺

I would love to hear why you prefer your chosen approach and look forward to reading about your experiences in the comments!

Warm regards 🌻,

Hi @Lisa9645 😊,

That's wonderful!

How many bedrooms do you have?

Our cleaners handle the linens. They ask to have at least 1.5 days between bookings as the laundry takes hours.

The disappointing thing is that Airbnb does not support hosts when guests damage/ soil linens. Expect to have a hard time being compensated for guest damages and paying for a new replacement set of linens out of pocket. 

Our cleaners are meticulous and every guest (but the one who trashed our home) have always commented on the cleanliness of our ski chalet.

Hi @Angie813 😊, 

Thank you for sharing your approach here!

Are your cleaners from a laundry service? Was it hard to find them?

Hi @Bednath0 😊, 

Thank you for sharing this with the community!

Did you always use experienced staff, or were you handling the cleaning yourself in the beginning?

Hi!

I'm a new host, I started on March 2024.  Currently, we do the laundry ourselves after each guest check-out.  We have spare sets of linens in case we have back to back reservations and we don't have time to do all the laundry. So far it's worked well
