TENANT HANDBOOK

Janitorial Service

A comprehensive green cleaning program is used in all JBG SMITH buildings. This program uses certified green cleaning products that support environmental stewardship and maintain Class A standards.

Unless you have arranged for daytime cleaning, your office suite and all common areas are cleaned nightly Monday through Friday, except for building holidays. We request that you contact the Property Management Office with any housekeeping issues or concerns by submitting a service request through JBG SMITH Connect for assistance. If you have comments regarding the cleaning services, please contact the Property Management Office for your building.
