It covers front-of-house tasks, kitchen clean down and food storage, bar breakdown and product lock-up, trash removal and linens, restocking water, soda, juice and tea, sweeping and mopping, and final captain walk-through checks like lights, AV, doors and security. Capture photos of key areas, verify completion, and sign off to standardize end-of-event procedures and maintain cleanliness, safety, and compliance.
