Dear University of Oregon Campus Community,
Campus Planning and Facilities Management (CPFM) Facilities Services is pleased to announce that we will be moving back to a weekly office cleaning schedule. Beginning the week of April 3, 2023, and each subsequent week thereafter, Facilities Services’ custodians will enter each office and complete the following tasks:
- Empty the trash and reline the trash can
- Spot vacuum in unobstructed areas for carpeted floors
- Spot mop in unobstructed areas for hard floors
Faculty and staff often request to opt out of having their offices cleaned. If custodial services are not wanted in an office, please reach out to the CPFM Work Control Center (WCC – see below for contact information) to make that request and your office will be omitted from cleaning. If you find that after the program has started and your office is being missed, or you want to schedule a non-participating office for a cleaning, please contact WCC.
Trash receptacles needing emptied between cleanings may be set in the hallway at any time.
Please be patient with the custodians as we restart this service since this is a change in operations from the last several years. For operational reasons, regular building cleaning occurs on different shifts. These shifts run 24-hours a day, Monday through Friday. As a result, office occupants will not be notified before each cleaning and custodial staff will do their best to not interrupt you to clean your office. If they come by and you are there, they will ask if they can get the trash and complete the tasks outlined above. If it’s not a good time, let them know and they will come by at another time.
Thank you for your understanding as we improve this custodial service to campus.
If you have any questions, comments, or wish to opt out of office cleaning, contact CPFM Work Control at 541-346-2319 or workcontrolcenter@uoregon.edu .
Tim Winder,
CFPM Custodial Services Manager
