Our custodians handle the day-to-day tasks of scrubbing tables / desktops, sweeping, mopping, vacuuming, emptying trash cans, washing windows, sanitizing washrooms in our facilities (approximately 850,000 square feet). Besides aesthetics, they contribute to keeping pests away and reducing the spread of germs.
