"Hi Jenny,
thanks for your question. Yes, our cleaners lock up when they have completed the job. Regular cleans provide us with a key unless they have a key safe. For a one-off job if you aren't at the property the cleaners can lock up & post the keys back for you.
Kind regards,
Heavenly.

"It all depends on the customer and whether they feel comfortable in leaving the cleaner with that responsibility, and also whether the cleaner feels comfortable with that responsibility. It would have to be discussed between the client and the cleaner."
