Helpful Details For This Checklist
Turnover Quality Control
A good Airbnb checklist should reduce missed tasks across different cleaners and different booking lengths. Use the same room order every time so exceptions stand out quickly.
- Create one owner supply area for linens, batteries, toiletries, bags, and backup consumables.
- Photograph damage before cleaning, then photograph the final staged condition.
- Test Wi-Fi, locks, remotes, thermostat, and smoke alarms before marking the unit ready.
Restocking Checklist
Guests usually notice missing basics faster than small decorative details. Check high-use supplies during every turnover, even when the stay was short.
- Toilet paper, tissues, hand soap, dish soap, trash bags, sponge, and paper towels.
- Coffee, tea, filters, basic condiments, and any promised welcome items.
- Towels, bath mats, extra blankets, hangers, and spare pillowcases.
