How a visit works
One full clean a day, timed around your showtimes
Most theatres book one general janitorial visit a day: before doors open in the morning, or after the last show at night. Every visit follows the same five steps, so the first guests of the day walk into a clean house.
1
Before open or after close
Crew arrives
The crew comes in when the building is empty of guests and signs in for the visit.
2
Rows and cupholders
Litter picked from every row in every auditorium. Cupholders emptied and wiped, seats checked and lifted.
3
Spills and gum
Sticky floors scrubbed, spills mopped, gum lifted from floors and seats.

Washrooms and lobby

Ready for doors
A final walk of every auditorium, then the building is ready for your first showtime.
