How To Close After Your Event

Try to leave the space nicer than you found it. This often means taking care of dishes, sweeping, or disposing of trash that you or your guests may not have personally left. This will be a benefit to the entire community, and be appreciated by all.

Please do all dishes, utensils, pots, and pans that are in the sink, and put them away on kitchen shelves.

Please leave no uncovered food or garbage. Put all edible and perishable items either in a refrigerator, a sealed plastic container, or inside a sealed garbage container. This will help keep rodents and flies away.

If a garbage or recycling container is more than 3/4 full (overweight trash bags will not be picked up) take the bag out and place it inside our outdoor storage container (above the basement grate, lock code is BEANS). Replace the black or clear bag (stored near the kitchen sink).

Wipe down all surfaces, counters, and tables, using a cleaning spray and wash cloth.

Please return the couches, tables and chairs to their normally designated locations. 

Please sweep or vacuum any area where people are eating or drinking.

There’s a lost and found in a blue bin to the left of the emergency exit stairs where you can drop any miscellaneous items you find.

Before leaving, make sure to turn off the lights, projector, fans, and air conditioner (beige remote). Pull up the projector screens. 

Make sure the front door is locked, with the left door’s top latch engaged (can test by trying to open the door when outside). Make sure the key is safely inside the lockbox.

Please communicate via text or email at the end of the event, verbally confirming the space is adequately reset to the above expectations, and communicate any changes or concerns, providing photos if necessary.
