Square footage that still has to pass an audit.

Cleaning for warehouses, distribution centers, and industrial facilities across New York and New Jersey: ride-on floor scrubbing at scale, docks and aisles kept to OSHA housekeeping standards, and the human spaces that still matter, all scheduled around your shifts.

The Reality

A warehouse is mostly floor, and the floor is a safety issue.

.01

The floor is the whole job.

Concrete warehouse floors collect dust, tire marks, pallet debris, and spills across tens of thousands of square feet. A mop cannot touch that. It takes ride-on auto-scrubbers and a real cadence, or the floor degrades and the dust gets into everything stored on it.

.02

Housekeeping is an OSHA matter.

OSHA's walking-working-surfaces standard expects aisles and floors kept clean and clear. Debris, spills, and clutter are not just messy, they are the slip-and-trip findings that show up in audits and the conditions behind a lot of facility injury claims.

.03

The human spaces still count.

Breakrooms, restrooms, and offices in an industrial building get heavy use and little attention. They are where staff morale and retention quietly live, and they are usually the first thing a visiting customer or auditor actually inspects.

.04

Operations do not stop for cleaning.

Distribution runs on shifts, sometimes around the clock. Cleaning has to happen in and around live operations without blocking an aisle, a dock, or an equipment path. A vendor that gets in the way of throughput will not last a quarter.

Our Approach

Built for scale and shift work.

Equipment matched to the square footage.

Ride-on and walk-behind auto-scrubbers sized to the facility, not buckets and mops. Large concrete floors get cleaned efficiently and evenly, with high dusting of racking and beams scheduled on its own cadence.

Scheduled around throughput.

Crews work zones when they are clear and coordinate around active shifts, docks, and equipment so cleaning never blocks the operation. Overnight and weekend windows used wherever they fit your flow.

Dedicated W-2 crews, not day labor.

All cleaning staff are W-2 employees, background-checked before assignment and dedicated to your facility, so the same trained people learn your layout, your safety rules, and your no-go zones.

Standards

What we maintain, in writing.

General liability and workers' compensation

$2MM general liability coverage and full workers' compensation for all staff. Certificates of insurance provided within 48 hours of request, with the operator or landlord named as additional insured where required.

W-2 employee staffing model

All cleaning staff are W-2 employees of Anvil, not subcontractors. Consistent accountability, training, payroll tax compliance, and direct supervision, with no pass-through labor liability for the operator.

Background-checked staff

All employees pass background checks before assignment, which matters in a facility holding inventory and running after-hours access. Clearance documentation maintained on file.

OSHA-aligned floor and aisle housekeeping

Floor scrubbing, debris removal, and spill response support OSHA's walking-working-surfaces standard (29 CFR 1910.22), reducing slip-trip exposure in aisles, docks, and staging areas.

EPA-registered disinfectants in shared spaces

Breakroom, kitchen, and restroom high-touch surfaces disinfected with EPA-registered products at validated dwell times, keeping the human spaces of an industrial building genuinely sanitary.

Time-stamped service verification

Every shift documented with timestamped photographs and a written service log, available for safety audits, insurance reviews, or customer inspections, on the cadence the account requires.

Our Commitment

A clean facility is a safer facility.

In a warehouse, cleaning is not cosmetic. A clear, scrubbed floor is fewer slips, fewer claims, and a cleaner audit. We treat the floor as a safety surface, because that is what it is.

Protocols

How a shift actually runs.

.01

Arrival, zones, and safety

Crews check in, confirm which zones are clear, and review the facility's safety rules and no-go areas before starting. The crew lead carries the documented scope and works in coordination with the shift supervisor.

.02

Floors and aisles

Open floor and aisles scrubbed with auto-scrubbers, debris and pallet waste cleared, spills addressed, and dock and staging areas cleaned, keeping walking-working surfaces to OSHA expectations.

.03

Breakrooms, restrooms, offices

Breakrooms, kitchens, restrooms, and offices cleaned and restocked, high-touch surfaces disinfected with EPA-registered products, and trash and recycling pulled across the human spaces of the facility.

.04

Documentation and handoff

Photographs of completed work, a time-stamped service log, and any flagged issues (damage, spills, maintenance concerns) submitted to the operator on the cadence the account requires, ready for audits and reviews.

Why Anvil

We clean the floor like the operation depends on it.

An industrial facility runs on throughput and safety, and cleaning touches both. A degraded floor slows equipment and fails audits; a cluttered aisle becomes an injury claim. The cleaning vendor either supports the operation or quietly works against it, one missed zone at a time.

We built Anvil to clean at warehouse scale with the right equipment, coordinate cleanly around live shifts, and document the work so it stands up to a safety audit or a customer inspection. Distribution and industrial work is one of the clearest tests of whether a vendor can hold a standard across a hundred thousand square feet, not just a lobby.

FAQ

Common questions.

What does Anvil include in a warehouse cleaning program?

A typical Anvil warehouse program covers large-format hard-floor scrubbing of aisles and open floor, loading-dock and staging-area cleaning, breakrooms and kitchens, restrooms, and front and back offices. Trash and recycling are pulled, high-touch surfaces are disinfected with EPA-registered products, and housekeeping is kept to OSHA walking-working-surface expectations. High dusting of racking, beams, and fixtures is scheduled periodically.

Do you use ride-on floor scrubbers for large facilities?

Yes. Warehouse and distribution floors are too large to mop, so Anvil uses ride-on or walk-behind auto-scrubbers sized to the facility to clean concrete floors efficiently and consistently. This lifts ground-in dust, tire marks, and debris that mopping only spreads around.

How does warehouse cleaning address OSHA housekeeping requirements?

OSHA's walking-working-surfaces standard (29 CFR 1910.22) requires floors and aisles to be kept clean, orderly, and free of hazards. Consistent floor scrubbing, debris removal, and spill response directly support that standard and reduce slip-trip exposure. Anvil documents the work so it can be shown during a safety audit or insurance review.

Can you clean around our shift operations?

Yes. Distribution and industrial facilities often run multiple shifts, so Anvil coordinates cleaning around active operations, working zones when they are clear and never blocking live aisles, docks, or equipment paths. Scheduling is built around your operation, including overnight and weekend windows.

What is Anvil's insurance and staffing model for industrial accounts?

Anvil carries $2MM general liability and full workers' compensation for all staff. Certificates of insurance are provided within 48 hours of request, with the operator or landlord named as additional insured where required. All cleaning staff are W-2 employees, not subcontractors, and every employee passes a background check before assignment.
