EVENT CLEAN-UPS WHO YOU GONNA CALL?


"When it comes to the clean-up, call in the experts!” So says Paul Lewis, Managing Director at Reintec, part of the HSS Hire Group, who explains the benefits of outsourcing cleaning equipment when it comes to the inevitable post-party clean-up.


With the summer season well and truly upon us, social calendars are jam-packed with festivals, weddings, parties and fetes galore. All the while the festivities continue, those in the cleaning industry know there’s one inescapable truth – after the party comes the clean up!


It’s a simple fact that summer means an increased demand for both resources and equipment, impacting upon facilities managers, contract cleaners and event organisers alike. While naturally this is great news from a commercial perspective, it isn’t without challenges, particularly from an operational point of view.

A key challenge for many involved in the clean-up effort is how to do the best job as quickly and efficiently as possible. During times of increased demand, a different approach to managing cleaning activities may be required.


A solution you may not have considered is outsourcing. In the same way as event planners may recruit additional capabilities, cleaning contractors can choose to outsource and call in additional reinforcements. By outsourcing their equipment requirements to an equipment services company like Reintec, cleaning contractors can take advantage of specialist support that offers flexible equipment availability and helps to drive operational efficiency.


It’s often the case that during a big clean up, extra kit or specialist

equipment is required. Needless to say this doesn’t come without a hefty price tag. This is where outsourcing has the answer. Outsourcing allows cleaning contractors to scale up their fleet requirements or bring in specialist kit in response to demand, without having to worry about capital expenditure or what to do with that kit once demand starts to level off. It can also help to ensure optimal productivity and ultimate safety – two of the things we most want when it comes to clean-up operations.


Outsourcing is fundamentally a simple yet very effective solution. You hire whatever you want, have it delivered wherever you want it, and in the quantities that you need it, and you can rest assured that the equipment will always turn up fully compliant, well maintained and ready to use.


When working to a tight and highly pressurised time scale, there’s one thing for certain – you need kit that works and is safe to use. Again, outsourcing ticks the boxes. Using an outsourcing model removes the requirement of a maintenance regime to ensure compliance and availability. You get ‘shop fresh’ equipment every time, which is crucial in ensuring operational efficiency and user safety. Plus, an outsourcing model provides on-going equipment maintenance and guaranteed compliance. It also reduces the potential for downtime caused by equipment failure or loss, and improves turnaround times for emergency requirements or peaks in activity.


Put simply, outsourcing your equipment requirements gives you the piece of mind to focus on your core activities, safe in the knowledge that you’ll have the kit you need to support you. So this summer, don’t let clean-up battle dampen spirits.
