A warehouse floor clean enough for forklift cameras.
We clean distribution centres, warehouses, cross-dock facilities, and cold storage across Scotland. MHE-aware protocols, anti-slip floor care, and dock-door sanitation. Night shift and shutdown cover for 24/7 operations.
Not a generalist. Not a franchise template.
A genuine sector-led protocol delivered by crews who know your regulatory landscape, your audit rhythm, and the cost of getting it wrong.
Logistics and warehousing cleaning is a discipline of operational continuity. Distribution centres run 24/7, MHE (material handling equipment) operates continuously, throughput targets are tight, and any cleaning activity that blocks aisles or docks costs money. Maundy Clean has spent over a decade inside Scottish logistics — from 50,000 sq ft regional distribution centres to 500,000 sq ft national hubs.
Our logistics division operates a night-shift-dominant model. Day shift covers offices, canteens, WCs, and welfare areas — typically 2–4 cleaners. Night shift covers the operational area — aisle-by-aisle floor machine-scrubbing, dock-door sanitation, racking inspection cleaning, spill response — typically 6–20 cleaners depending on facility size. Shutdown team covers periodic deep cleans, racking deep clean, and high-level structure cleaning during planned outages.
We understand the rhythm of logistics: inbound receiving peaks, outbound dispatch peaks, shift handover 6am/6pm, MHE charging windows, planned maintenance shutdowns, peak season (Black Friday, Christmas), and SLA-driven dispatch deadlines. Our crews work around all of it — night shift cleans aisle-by-aisle while MHE is on charge, day shift handles welfare areas without disrupting operations, shutdown team covers deep cleans during planned outages. Every task is logged digitally and SLA-aligned.
The frameworks we work to.
Every protocol, every checklist, every audit trail — mapped to the standards your regulator expects to see.
Our protocols align to HSE warehousing and storage guidance — including MHE safety, pedestrian segregation, and slip-risk management.
All cleaning equipment is PUWER-compliant, PAT-tested, and risk-assessed for use around MHE. Ride-on scrubber-dryers equipped with hazard lights and reversing alarms.
Every product carries a current COSHH datasheet. We use food-safe degreasers in cold storage areas and avoid silicones near MHE tyres.
Warehouse floors are high-slip-risk. Our floor care includes anti-slip treatment, spill response SLA, and wet-floor signage protocols aligned to HSE SLIPS guidance.
We include water outlet flushing, temperature checks, and showerhead descaling in welfare areas and driver shower facilities (where present).
For pharmaceutical and food distribution, our cleaning aligns to GDP requirements for storage facilities — including temperature-controlled area sanitation.
Services we run for logistics & warehousing.
A scoped bundle of services tuned to your operating rhythm — not a generic menu bolted onto your sector.
Warehouse Cleaning
Full warehouse cleaning — aisles, racking, loading bays, dock doors, plant rooms, welfare areas.
Distribution Centre Cleaning
Large-format distribution centre cleaning — night shift dominant, MHE-aware, SLA-aligned.
Floor Care & VCT Stripping
Warehouse floor care — ride-on scrubber-dryer, anti-slip treatment, line-marking refresh, epoxy maintenance.
High Dusting
Overhead structure cleaning — rafters, ductwork, light fittings, high-level racking tops (critical for product-fall prevention).
Office Cleaning
Admin offices, transport office, meeting rooms, canteens, WCs — the people-facing side of the operation.
Nightly Janitorial
Overnight warehouse floor scrubbing, dock-door sanitation, welfare area cleaning, spill response.
The pain points you stop worrying about.
We've spent years inside logistics & warehousing operations. These are the issues we get called about most — and the protocols we've built to eliminate them.
24/7 operational continuity
Distribution centres run 24/7. Cleaning can't block aisles or docks. Our night-shift-dominant model cleans aisle-by-aisle while MHE is on charge, with documented re-opening protocols.
MHE-aware operation
MHE (forklifts, reach trucks, pallet trucks) operates continuously. Our crews are trained on MHE awareness — high-visibility PPE, reversing alarm awareness, pedestrian segregation, no-go zones during MHE movement.
Spill response and SLA pressure
Spills in a warehouse block aisles and risk slips. Our spill response SLA is 15 minutes during night shift, 30 minutes during day shift. Wet-floor signage deployed immediately, spill cleared, area dried.
Large-format complexity
500,000 sq ft distribution centres need a different operational model than 50,000 sq ft warehouses. Our crew-to-area ratios, scheduling, and supervision scale with facility size.
Peak season surge
Black Friday, Christmas, peak season — throughput doubles, cleaning frequency needs to double too. We provide surge capacity with 2 weeks' notice for existing clients.
Cost pressure in competitive logistics
Logistics margins are tight. Our frequency optimisation reviews typically deliver 8–12% cost-out without dropping any HSE-critical task or SLA.
From first call to first clean in 7 days.
A structured mobilisation that respects your operational continuity — no gap in service, no surprises in scope.
Operations survey
Our account director walks the facility with the operations manager and HSE lead. We map aisles, dock doors, racking, welfare areas, and MHE traffic patterns. Discuss shift patterns and SLA requirements.
Night-shift-dominant schedule & quote
Within 5 business days you receive a written schedule covering day shift, night shift, and shutdown teams. MHE-aware protocols, spill response SLA, and fixed monthly fee included.
Crew induction & mobilisation
Logistics-trained crews are inducted, complete MHE awareness training and HSE briefing, and mobilise across all shifts. High-visibility PPE issued. Pedestrian segregation protocols briefed.
Ongoing delivery & SLA reporting
Nightly cleaning, daily SLA reports, monthly KPI reviews, quarterly operations meetings. Peak season surge capacity booked in advance. Shutdown deep cleans scheduled.
The difference is operational.
We don't win contracts on price. We win them on the things that show up in your audit scores, your staff feedback, and your bottom line.
Night-shift-dominant model
Aisle-by-aisle floor machine-scrubbing while MHE is on charge. Documented re-opening protocols. Zero throughput disruption. Day shift handles welfare areas without operational impact.

50,000 sq ft or 500,000 sq ft — our crew-to-area ratios, scheduling, and supervision scale with facility size. Same protocols, same standards, same SLA reporting.
Peak season surge capacity
Black Friday, Christmas, peak season — we double the crew with 2 weeks' notice for existing clients. Surge pricing transparent and capped at 1.5x. No throughput disruption.
SLA-aligned reporting
Daily SLA reports, monthly KPI reviews. Every task logged with time-stamp and crew ID. Liability protection if a slip claim arises. Cost-out without SLA compromise.
Operators who'd recommend us.
"Maundy Clean has handled our 350,000 sq ft DC for four years. Night-shift aisle-by-aisle protocol is genuinely throughput-neutral. Spill response is 12 minutes on average. Peak season surge was seamless. The SLA reporting is the cleanest I've seen in 20 years of logistics."
"MHE-aware operation is genuinely MHE-aware. Crews in Class 3 hi-vis, pedestrian segregation respected, scrubber-dryers with beacons and reversing alarms. HSE inspections pass without cleaning-related findings. Slip incidents down 80% since they started."
"Cold storage cleaning is specialist work. Maundy Clean's crews are trained, equipped, and GDP-compliant. Our pharmaceutical customer audits pass without cleaning-related findings. The temperature logging discipline is exemplary."
27+ Scottish locations covered.
From city-centre flagships to remote Highland sites — we mobilise across Scotland with the same SLA and the same sector-trained crews.
Logistics & Warehousing — the questions we hear most.
Our night-shift-dominant model is the answer. Aisles are cleaned one at a time, with documented re-opening protocols — typically an aisle is closed for 30–45 minutes while the floor is machine-scrubbed and dried. We coordinate with shift managers on MHE charging windows to minimise disruption. High-traffic areas (dock doors, main aisles) are cleaned during the lowest-throughput window (typically 2am–5am).
