Checklist: The final stock check before peak season
The countdown is on. Before long, the park will be filling up and the facilities team will be working at full speed. The occupancy schedule is in place and the major maintenance jobs have been completed. But have you also thought about the details that help changeover day run smoothly?
Nothing is more frustrating for your team than running out of supplies during a busy changeover. And nothing is more disappointing for a guest than a missing dishcloth or an empty toilet roll on arrival. With this practical checklist, you can quickly review the most important stock items so your team can head into summer without stress.
1. The Kitchen: The start of the stay
The kitchen is the place where guests want to make a cup of coffee or do the first dishes right after arrival. Make sure the basic sets are complete.
[ ] Welcome sets: Are there enough complete kitchen sets (dishwashing brush, dishcloth, sponge, dishwasher tablets) ready for all planned changeovers?
[ ] Coffee and tea: Are the coffee machines clean and has the stock of premium coffee pods (such as De Koffiejongens) been replenished?
2. The Bathroom: Hotel quality and hygiene
[ ]Luxury bathroom sets: Do you have enough body wash, shampoo and mini soaps in stock to give the bathroom that much-loved spa feel?
[ ] Guest toilet essentials: Is there enough toilet paper in stock to cover the first few days?
[ ] Sustainable dispensers: If you work with refillable bottles, are they all full and are the dispensers securely mounted?
3. The Bedroom: The foundation of a good review
A good night’s sleep is invaluable. Textiles should not only be clean, but also in perfect condition.
[ ] Bed linen: Are there enough sheets, pillowcases and duvet covers to handle the quick turnaround?
[ ] Mattress and pillow protectors: Check the hygienic protectors. Are any due for replacement after the pre-season?
Prevent stress: Check your logistics safety net
Did you discover while checking things off that a particular stock item is running very low? Don’t panic. The most important thing is to act now, before the real peak begins.
If you find out now that you are short on stock, make use of a smart logistics safety net. The most popular welcome sets (the top 5) from Wecovi Service are always kept in stock and can be delivered immediately. That way, your facilities team will never come up short, no matter how busy it gets.
