Cleaner Handoff Template for Vacation Rentals

How to give cleaners clear expectations, photos, priority notes, and escalation instructions.

Cleaner handoff sections

A strong handoff has property basics, task checklist, restock levels, known issues, photos required, escalation rules, and completion confirmation.

Photo proof

Ask for final photos of beds, bathrooms, kitchen, living room, entry area, and any issue areas. This protects both host and cleaner.

Next step: Use the free checklist generator, then upgrade to Host Turnover OS when you want the full workbook and template bundle.
