Industrial cleaning work in Palmerstown
Industrial work runs on the plant schedule rather than on yours: shutdowns, night shifts and weekends, agreed weeks in advance. It pays better per hour than domestic work and it is harder to get into, because sites ask for a method statement and a risk assessment before you get through the gate.
Dublin has the densest cleaning market in the country, and the most competition for it. Apartment turnovers, short-let changeovers and office contracts run all year rather than in season, which is what makes it possible to build a full week here without travelling far between jobs.
Requests in Palmerstown and the surrounding parts of Co. Dublin go out to professionals who cover the area. You say where you travel, so you are not offered work an hour away.
