Commercial Office Cleaning

Multi-Tenant Office Cleaning

Multi-tenant office cleaning separates building common areas (lobbies, corridors, restrooms, elevators) from individual tenant suites. Common areas are funded through CAM charges and cleaned nightly, while tenant suites are scoped per lease. Clear scope boundaries and consistent coverage models prevent billing disputes.

Typical Scope

  • Common-area janitorial: lobbies, corridors, shared restrooms, elevators
  • Tenant-suite cleaning per individual lease terms
  • Trash consolidation and loading-dock staging
  • Shared amenity spaces (conference centers, fitness, café)
  • Periodic common-area floor and glass care

Key Considerations

CAM cost allocation

Common-area cleaning is billed through CAM and must be transparently measurable across tenants.

Scope boundaries

Defining where common-area service ends and tenant scope begins is the most common source of disputes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is multi-tenant office cleaning billed?
Common-area cleaning is funded through CAM (Common Area Maintenance) charges shared by all tenants, while individual tenant-suite cleaning is billed per lease — either bundled into rent or contracted directly by the tenant.
What counts as common area in a multi-tenant building?
Common areas include lobbies, corridors, shared restrooms, elevators, stairwells, loading docks, and shared amenities. These are cleaned on a building-wide schedule rather than per tenant.
Can tenants choose their own cleaning scope?
Yes — within their leased suite, tenants can often specify frequency and added services, though the building's base janitorial program usually sets a minimum standard.
