Heavy-Duty Cleaning for Hardworking Facilities
Dust, debris, traffic, and daily operations can quickly affect the appearance and safety of a warehouse. Homerun Commercial Cleaning provides dependable warehouse and industrial cleaning customized around your facility, operating schedule, and work environment.
Keep Your Operation Cleaner, Safer, and Ready for Business
Warehouse cleaning requires more than emptying trash and mopping an office. Large floors, loading areas, storage racks, employee spaces, and active equipment zones require careful planning.
Homerun Commercial Cleaning begins with an on-site walkthrough and creates a written scope identifying the areas to be cleaned, required frequency, equipment, safety procedures, restricted zones, and tasks that require specialized contractors. We serve warehouses, distribution centers, storage facilities, workshops, and light-manufacturing properties throughout Gwinnett County, Metro Atlanta, and surrounding areas.
Your Facility Works Hard. Its Cleaning Program Should Too.
A clean warehouse supports a more professional operation and helps keep floors, walkways, employee spaces, and work areas ready for the next shift. These are the frustrations facility managers share most often before switching to Homerun Commercial Cleaning.

- Dirty or stained warehouse floors
- Packaging debris collecting around work areas
- Slippery floors and unattended spills
- Restrooms and breakrooms being neglected
- Cleaning crews disrupting production

- Poor communication about hazards
- Cleaners entering restricted areas
- Cleaning personnel interfering with inventory
- Dust being blown from one area to another

Our Warehouse and Industrial Cleaning Process
A structured six-step approach that begins with a full facility assessment and ends with consistent, inspected results.
On-Site Facility Assessment
A representative evaluates total facility square footage, warehouse and production-floor conditions, number of offices, restrooms, and breakrooms, loading docks and receiving areas, shipping and staging zones, aisles and pedestrian walkways, storage racks and shelving, floor type and condition, dust and debris levels, ceiling and wall cleaning needs, machinery and equipment boundaries, active forklift and vehicle traffic, stored products and materials, chemical or hazardous-material areas, combustible-dust concerns, restricted and permit-required areas, required PPE, customer safety orientation requirements, security and access procedures, preferred service schedule, and waste-disposal responsibilities.
Hazard and Responsibility Review
Before cleaning begins, Homerun and the customer document areas cleaners may enter, areas requiring an escort, active equipment and vehicle routes, machinery cleaners may not touch, required PPE, emergency exits and evacuation procedures, chemical hazards and Safety Data Sheets, ordinary versus regulated waste, spill-response responsibilities, lockout/tagout responsibilities, fall-protection restrictions, combustible-dust risks, and approved cleaning methods and equipment.
Customized Scope of Work
The written cleaning plan identifies tasks included during every visit, periodic and project-based tasks, service frequency, approved products and equipment, waste streams the team may handle, restricted surfaces and materials, shutdown or low-activity cleaning windows, inspection and communication procedures, and pricing and additional-service terms.
Initial or Restorative Cleaning
When needed, an initial service addresses accumulated dust, floor buildup, neglected corners, restrooms, breakrooms, offices, loading areas, and other approved sections. Large-scale restoration, hazardous residue, or specialty dust removal are quoted separately.
Recurring Facility Cleaning
The assigned team follows a site-specific checklist during every visit. Service is coordinated with facility management so cleaners do not interfere with forklifts, machinery, shipping activity, employees, or production.
Quality-Control Inspections
Completed work is reviewed against the approved scope. You have a clear process for reporting missed areas, hazards, spills, schedule changes, and additional cleaning needs.

Dust-Control Considerations
Warehouses commonly experience dust on floors, rack bases, pallets, ledges, beams, dock doors, pipes, fans, equipment exteriors, and overhead structures. Ordinary dust removal may be included after an assessment.
Combustible Dust Requires Specialized Handling
Some facilities produce combustible dust from wood, metal, plastics, textiles, paper, food ingredients, or other materials. Combustible dust must not be treated like ordinary housekeeping dust. Cleaning methods can create an ignition or explosion hazard if inappropriate vacuums, compressed air, or electrical equipment are used.
Homerun does not advertise combustible-dust remediation unless it has appropriate training, a facility dust-hazard assessment, approved cleaning procedures, properly rated vacuum equipment, required PPE, site-specific authorization, and appropriate insurance coverage.

Depending on the approved scope, the team may use the following equipment. Only equipment Homerun owns or can reliably provide is listed.
- Commercial push brooms
- Dust mops
- Industrial or commercial vacuums
- Wet/dry vacuums when appropriate
- HEPA-filtered vacuums when required
- Microfiber cloths and flat-mop systems
- Commercial mops and buckets
- Walk-behind floor scrubbers
- Floor buffers or burnishers
- Degreasers approved for the surface and soil
- Glass-cleaning tools
- Wet-floor signs and safety cones
- High-visibility clothing
- Gloves, eye protection, and other task-appropriate PPE

Important Service Boundaries
Machinery and Lockout/Tagout
Cleaning inside, underneath, or near machinery may expose workers to unexpected startup, electrical power, pressure, heat, gravity, or other stored energy. Homerun employees do not remove guards, open machinery, clear jams, clean internal components, or enter danger zones unless an authorized lockout/tagout procedure has been completed and the employees are appropriately trained.
Forklifts and Powered Equipment
Cleaning personnel do not operate forklifts, scissor lifts, boom lifts, pallet jacks, compactors, conveyors, or customer machinery without documented authorization and required training. Active forklift areas are cleaned during shutdowns or coordinated low-traffic periods whenever possible.
Hazardous Chemicals and Spills
Routine warehouse cleaning does not include unidentified chemicals, industrial process waste, oils, solvents, acids, pesticides, hazardous powders, leaking batteries, or other potentially regulated materials. If cleaners discover an unknown spill, they stop work, keep others away when safe, notify the facility representative, avoid touching the material, and follow the site emergency-response procedure.
Confined Spaces and Elevated Areas
Routine cleaning excludes tanks, silos, pits, vessels, crawlspaces, utility vaults, roofs, unprotected mezzanines, high racks, elevated beams, and areas requiring fall protection. These tasks require separate assessment, specialized equipment, training, and authorization.
Specialized Exclusions
Unless specifically confirmed and separately quoted, the service does not include hazardous-material remediation, combustible-dust remediation, mold or asbestos remediation, biohazard cleanup, sewage cleanup, chemical-spill response, oil-spill remediation, tank or silo cleaning, confined-space entry, internal machinery cleaning, conveyor cleaning, industrial exhaust-system cleaning, hazardous-waste transportation, pest control, or exterior high-access cleaning.
Scheduling Built Around Your Operation
Homerun Commercial Cleaning offers flexible daytime and evening service. Scheduling options are customized to your shifts, shipping windows, production periods, and facility-access requirements, subject to availability and the property assessment.
How Much Does Warehouse or Industrial Cleaning Cost?
Pricing depends on total square footage, floor type and condition, dust and debris levels, number of restrooms and employee areas, ceiling and rack height, equipment required, cleaning frequency, operating schedule, loading and forklift activity, restricted areas, required PPE and orientation, waste-handling responsibilities, and specialized cleaning tasks. Homerun Commercial Cleaning provides a free on-site estimate and customized contract pricing after evaluating the facility.
