This STR cleaning and inspection checklist helps hosts and property teams deliver consistent, guest-ready short‑term rentals. It covers an initial walkthrough; whole‑home disinfection of high‑touch surfaces; kitchen tasks such as restocking supplies, emptying trash, cleaning appliances, and photo documentation; bathroom sanitation and restocking; laundry room lint removal and pods; bedroom bed‑making and pest checks; living room sofa bed inspection; patio/balcony tidying and smoking evidence checks; and final details like trash removal and scuff mark cleanup. Prompts for photos and notes support quality control, inventory tracking, and accountability during turnovers.
