When you're staying at a Homier home, you're not a customer. You're part of the circle. That means the way you leave the space matters.
There's no five-star review. And not always a professional cleaning crew waiting in the driveway.
Just trust, respect, and a shared desire to keep the home feeling like a home.
Here's how to reset the space before you head out, so it's warm, ready, and peaceful for whoever comes next.
Flip the Bedrooms You Used
- Strip the beds you slept in and gather used towels
- Start a load of laundry (sheets or towels, owner's preference)
- If you have time, start a second load or transfer to the dryer
- Remake the beds with fresh or clean sheets if available
- For unused or already-clean beds, leave duvets folded back or sheets turned down so it's clear what's fresh
- Return any furniture, pillows, or cushions to their usual spots
Pro tip: focus on leaving the bedrooms "flipped" so it's obvious what's clean and what's ready for the next stay.
Quick Clean & Tidy
- Wipe down kitchen counters, stove, and table
- Take out garbage, compost, and recycling (check local bins)
- Load and run the dishwasher (don't leave dishes in the sink)
- Sweep or vacuum high-traffic areas if needed
Bathrooms
- Wipe sinks, mirrors, and counters
- Replace used hand towels
- Leave it fresh, not sterile, just cared for
Outdoor Areas
- Tidy up the patio, porch, or yard
- Return any furniture, games, or towels
- Cover the BBQ or firewood if needed
Restock or Refill (If You Used It Up)
- Coffee, soap, propane, garbage bags, whatever you emptied
- Leave a note or text if something ran out so the next guests aren't surprised
Final Touches
- Check for forgotten chargers, clothes, toys
- Leave the home how you'd love to find it, not spotless, but intentional
- A thank-you note or bottle of wine never hurts
Hosting That Feels Like Family
At Homier, homes are shared, not rented.
That means every guest plays a small role in keeping the space special, and every turnover is a gesture of care, not obligation.
So thank you, truly, for making the next arrival feel just a little bit easier.
