Cleaning

Cleaning services at Tacoma Medical Center are provided on a contract basis.

The common area hallways must remain clear in the event of an emergency evacuation of the building. Tenants are responsible for making outside arrangements for the removal and proper disposal of furniture, appliances, and electronic office equipment.   

Coffee grounds should be placed in trashcans and never washed down any part of the building plumbing system. To help eliminate unnecessary carpet stains due to leaking trash bags, containers with liquids should be emptied prior to disposal.

Tenants are responsible for the proper collection, disposal and removal of regulated medical “red bag” waste and Sharps containers. Tenants are to contract medical waste disposal directly with a medical waste disposal service. The disposal of any medical waste in building trash is strictly prohibited.

Trashcan liners, toilet tissue, paper towels, and soap in common area restrooms are stocked by the cleaning service provider. Only building-standard products are provided, and building-standard paper product and soap dispensers must be utilized in order for these products to be stocked.
