If you're reading this, thank you :)
Ayyy
About to start my first job and realized I don’t know how to mop a floor
What other questions do u have?
@@a-a-day Advice on wiping counters?
@@a-a-day I work with. Bunch of teenagers. You would think it would be common sense. They tend to leave a bunch of excess water.
I'm embarrassed that I'm 21 and had to youtube this. lol. I never mop, just sweep. lol
Don't feel too bad, I'm 41 and look this up too! I've always got down on my knees to scrub the floor but that's such a hassle so I didn't do very often.
William Levy that's great man most kids these days won't use the internet to look up useful things that will help them in the future.
I thought I was the only one it’s good to know I’m not the only one 😅
I'm 28 lol
Wat
That was so useful. I just moved out and never moped a floor, so thank God for this video helping me act like an adult
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank god I’m not the only one
I remember my manager training me to sweep/mop. No need to sweep or scrub, just swirl the visible debris out of the way and when it reached the back door, make sure to fling that shit into the grass, LOL. Was it correct? Hell no! Did I get home in time to watch Robot Chicken? Absolutely! Priorities folks!
dg8708, I just started doing that same mopping technique. Mop only and fling the dirt up against hallway wall and return to vacuum it up later. Going from room to room is way to much fuk’n work. It’s also a lot faster and you won’t be there and extra 2-3 hours vacuuming every damn room. Thus far 10 months no complaints. ✅✅🍻
U guys are idiots you have to do a good sweep right before the mop
Lol so true so many managers don't even know how to mop floor😅
yeah lol one of the cooks at the diner i work p.t. at saw me mopping the way the uploader did the first time, he stopped me and said i was going to throw out my whole arm doing that, showed me the zigzag manuever.. i work at a desk most of the time so f me for not knowing better
I’m 62yrs old. I’m glad to learn to do this right. I’ve swifferedmost of my life but now as a caregiver have to mop for my new clients this week. I was panicked. Thank you!!!
we really out here learning life lessons. Thanks dad
Wholesome 👌
Who's here after getting a cleaning job
I dont answer questions
I get anxious about the seemingly most ridiculous things. Im glad that there are videos out there that show how to properly do just about everything. Love this video. Thank you!
You’re welcome thanks for watching
I need to mop the floors for my new job so this was incredibly useful!
I just inherited an 18,000 square foot building working for my friends janitorial service. About 11,000 requires mopping. I divided three areas into zones. I will tackle one zone per weekend while doing the other regular maintenance on the building. Your video helped me get through the bigger, open areas. The last zone I have to move chairs out my way. But again, your tutorial helped me get it done faster. It helps to have a well-made mop head, not some cheapo version. Anywho. Thank you
Thank you I just got a job as a janitor. This is great help
Your welcome
Thank you, then I'm mopping my studio floor the right way 👍
Good information, Thanks
Just started a new Job and i had never used one of the flat mops before (we have one of the circular ones at home) so i was really confused and didn't know how to do it properly. Plus its in a Butchers so there is like chunks of meat and big blobs of blood which are really difficult to clean.But this video really helped.
I've got my first job as a utility and this helped me a lot in mopping, I have struggles mopping
I used to mop all the time at a job many years ago, and I got a new job at a pizzeria yesterday. They had me mop the floors at the end of the night and when I was doing it similar to this they told me to do it “the right way”… now I know they were wrong about going up and down like you showed as the wrong way
Thanks for watching
Very well made. Great info, Thanks for sharing.
This is a great video. Now I know I was basically doing it right all along. A couple of small adjustments and I'll be golden! Thanks!
Omg I used to this this when my mom told me to mop and she would always tell me to mop correctly and to stop being lazy 😂
Thank you for making this video, just saved my job.
Thanks for posting this! I've been looking for this on YT.
Hey thanks. Mopping in the winter is tough sometimes thanks for the tips. Hope you make more videos tips about commercial cleaning. Thanks.
Thanks
Thanks I just started a new job and didn’t know how to do it so thank you
Amazing
Love cleaning tips I clean my family warehouse it’s huge and I don’t think I was doing it correctly!! The s motion I see 😀great!!
Thank you so much I want to surprise my mom with a clean house and you’re really helping
You are so welcome!
Tysm! I have a new job and I’m rlly anxious about being bad at simple things like mopping so this was rlly helpful and made me less nervous
@@NaomiCZcams Yeah I got fired because I had a panic attack while serving a customer
@@NaomiCZcams Up until then it was fun tho, and I was great at mopping
@@Broccolini42783oh my god i’m sorry 😭😭
Good times that I worked as a janitor, I miss it a lot, even more that I enjoyed the job, unfortunately I walked away from professional cleaning but I'm thinking about returning.
My 1st job as a utility/maintenance is today . Thanks for this helpful video wish me luck
Good luck
Great vid also moping this way helps ur back a lot more
Thank you for the comment
Thanks man this really helped for work👍
Thanks man just trying to keep my Bach pad clean and need the tips :)
Pinch a 3M Scotch-Brite Scouring Pad in between the mop and the handle where it screws down on to it. That way if you have to scrub out a stubborn part, all you need to do is push the pad down on to it. Learned that trick working as a janitor as a HS during graduate school.
Thanks, really useful vid. What I'm not sure about is whether to squeeze out the mop then soak it again then squeeze it out again before resuming mopping? Sometimes we get puddles of dirty water left behind. Thanks again.
Thank you so much for your video 😊
I use your way to do my part time cleaning job, it is so helpful. Since I need to mop a very big area of the floor with limited timing ( because I also need clean toilets, bins..etc) do you have any faster way to mop? Thanks.
I usually hit the baseboards first so as you mop you are removing the dirt off of the corners …So while your mopping it doesn’t interfere with building dirt on the sides or splashing anything on the walls.Then from there as you mop ,you turn the mop over every 4to 5 strokes so the side that was used can dry off ,while the other side can be used😉 Then dip and rinse til you have change the water if you have too
Pov: you're looking this up to make sure you look competent at your job
I work at ford I'm having a hard time mopping juars floor but I'm still watching your video
I usually used my sink in my garage. To clean mop as I go. And I have a separate bucket with soap mix. So I don't use dirty water. the left and right motion. Is helpful. I do add drops of Clorox. And powder tide. To my mix of Lysol.
Helpful video, thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
This is how I mop someone tried to correct me at work, and I just had to make sure 😂
Thank you for this :-)
I do both motions because I admittedly don't mop as often as I should. I do a back n forth "scrub" first for any dried-on sticky mess that may or may not be visible; then the side to side sweeping motion to "wipe" it all up. And of course I change the water and redo this at least once or twice. I know... If I mopped more often this wouldn't be necessary. 😅
Even little things matter! 😀Thanks a lot.
Thanks for the tips ♡
I got yelled at for mopping like this lol. But I'm still thankful for the video
If I did that, my mom would think I'm carelessly mopping
Exactly!
Dude that mophead looks like it need replacing..
Then you'll start to have a stroke when you see my moms mophead that she uses
santiago vindell ya it does!
dove into the comments section specifically for this roast. Looks like it should be twice as full and half as short👀
Great tip
thanks man. was never taught by anyone and I I allways thought it was done by scrubbing, not catching and sweeping lolol
I'm 16 getting my first job (hopefully) soon, this is much appreciated friend.
You can do it!
@@KendallTodd thanks!!
Thank you for this m8
Thank you for making this I have not been taught how to mop

You just save me a lot of time
Thanks so much
Nice job dude
Kendall Todd is a good man
Thank you
I got let go from a job for apparently not cleaning properly. I had to look this up out of spite. Literally did everything in this video.
bro I’m so scared this will happen to me lol
I’m sorry man 😭did you find a new job
Thanks I needed to see how to use my Vileda mop.
Glad I could help
I have been overthinking mopping and sweeping at my job since I started yesterday, I'm always afraid that I look really stupid. Thank you for this lol :)
Thank you for watching!
Thankyou sir
Thank you for showing me the proper way to mop a floor i did it wrong my whole life
I’m stumped... for my position only had a swifter wet jet! Does the same technique apply with a different instrument???
Ty i was told to mop at subway and clueless, this nelps a lot
Thank you sir!
You are welcome!
Whew! Good to know I’ve been doing it right all my life. I did work at Mcd’s for 4 years though. The only thing different I do is after a while of mopping that direction I’ll flip the mop over and use the other side.
Nice that's how I mop at work✌
What cleaning products do you recommend using?
Thanks
Watching during my break since i was asked to mop before closing, i vacuum at home lmao.
When the mop head gets dirty after a few days, do you wash them and reuse or just replace them? I’m a janitor and we don’t have replacement mop heads, we just wash them and reuse. I’m wondering if that’s not the proper thing to do though.
Thank you
You're welcome
Thank you for posting. What would be the best way to mop in the mens bathroom? I feel like the Urinals are causing the rest of the bathroom to smell?
Being a supervisor for a long time now for a cleaning company I’ve trained so many people and i think one of the funniest way i see a new worker mop stairs is they start from the bottom and mop each step going up stepping over there already mopped one🤦♂️
Excellent
Thank you
Damn you mop fast. I mop aisles at a store and sucks because their small so it takes a long time
I spilled a whole mop bucket at work. Now here I am
You use a 'not too soapy water'. Do you go over the floor with a 'rinse water', or you leave the slightly soapy water on the floor?
How do you prepare the water to mop?
I'm finna start working tomorrow
Thank God I’m not the only one who doesn’t know how to mop properly. I work at Albertsons and I used to work in the Starbucks department and I mopped every night the manager would say I didn’t. Which is so frustrated
Left hand first then right hand on top then MOP🤷🏾♂️
You are confident
thank you sir
Most welcome
I clean businesses & the winter time really sucks when dealing with salt on tile floors. What is the best way to cut budget time down when getting salt residue off floors? Thank you😊🙏
Citric acid

Thankyou
tnx man
