In the vibrant city of Montreal, at the heart of Playground Poker, I, Jason Kastner, have witnessed the bustling life of a casino. Casinos are not just about gaming and entertainment; they are also about maintaining a pristine environment. With 84 million people visiting casinos in 2022, as reported by Forbes, the importance of a comprehensive cleaning checklist cannot be overstated.

The Challenge of Casino Cleanliness

High Traffic, High Stakes

Casinos are high-traffic environments, where countless interactions occur every minute. This constant flow of people brings unique cleaning challenges. A well-structured checklist and sanitization guide is essential to address these challenges effectively.

The Role of Professional Cleaning Services

At our casino in Montreal, we’ve partnered with Metrospec Maintenance and Cleaning Services, who have played a pivotal role in maintaining our high standards of cleanliness. Their expertise in the field ensures that every corner of our casino is immaculate, providing a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

Essential Elements of a Casino Cleaning Checklist

Air Quality to Employee Areas

A comprehensive cleaning approach covers everything from air quality to employee areas. Regularly replacing air filters and using air purifiers are critical to maintaining good indoor air quality. Surfaces like countertops, railings, slot machines, gaming tables, dining areas, and restrooms require meticulous cleaning and sanitizing multiple times a day. Moreover, the cleaning of chips and playing cards is paramount, as studies have shown the presence of harmful bacteria like E. coli on casino chips.

Sanitizing a Casino: Best Practices

Frequent Cleaning and Professional Sanitization

Frequent cleaning, especially of high-touch areas, is crucial. This not only maintains hygiene but also extends the longevity of gaming machines. Professional deep cleaning sessions by experts like Metrospec ensure thorough sanitization, covering areas that might be overlooked during routine cleaning.

Importance of Paper Products

In line with the CDC’s guidelines, we recognize the importance of paper products in reducing germ transmission. Ensuring these products are adequately stocked is a critical step in our sanitization process.

Advanced Cleaning Techniques

Electrostatic Spraying and Hand Hygiene Programs

Metrospec’s use of electrostatic spraying technology ensures even and comprehensive disinfection. The hand hygiene program, including hand sanitizer stations, is pivotal in promoting good hand hygiene practices among guests and staff.
