Custodial Services
Statesboro
Our Custodial team is proud to provide a healthy, clean, safe, and welcoming learning environment for our students, faculty, staff, and campus visitors. Each day, we service approximately 136 facilities across campus, covering more than 5,371,732 square feet of space.
We provide custodial services for academic buildings, athletic facilities, auxiliary spaces, administrative areas, support facilities, and most campus events.
Our team performs daily cleaning in all shared spaces, including classrooms, computer labs, student study areas, conference rooms, reception areas, lobbies, and hallways. Designated office areas are cleaned according to the custodial Office Cleaning Schedule. Any additional private offices not included in this schedule may request service by submitting a work order. To help maintain your individual office space, a variety of cleaning materials and supplies are stocked in designated supply closets throughout campus.
Flooring and upholstered furniture are cleaned on a scheduled basis, determined by floor type and frequency of use.
Custodial team members are on-site 24 hours a day, six days a week. Please note that cleaning services are not provided on Saturdays.
Armstrong and Liberty
Custodial Services for the Armstrong and Liberty campuses are provided by Owens Reality Services.
Logistical Services
We offer setups for university events and programs. We can provide tables, chairs, staging, and tents for events and programs being held on campus. Request for rentals must go through the Division of Facilities Services work order system.
Service Request (work orders) should be submitted at least ten working days prior to the requested service date for smaller setups. Smaller setups may include a request for up to 20 tables, and up to 100 chairs, and/or a small stage.
While service requests with shorter lead times will not be refused, we cannot guarantee service or equipment will be available. For larger setup, a service request (work orders) should be submitted thirty days in advance. Large setups may include a request for a tent, medium to the large stage, up to 150 tables, and up to 800 chairs.
For Student Organizations and other Georgia Southern affiliated groups, we ask that a work request is submitted by the sponsoring department or student organization advisor. It is imperative that the requester provides a detailed description of services and or materials desired, as well as dates and times for delivery, set-up, and pick-up. This may include schedules and drawings, points of contact, room numbers as appropriate. This will ensure that our crews arrive with the necessary equipment and a scheduled time to complete the service. Incomplete service requests will be returned to the requester for more information prior to scheduling. Our team is involved in many on-campus events daily, and we are proud to be a valued asset to the university.

Green Cleaning
DFS Custodial Services is doing its part to promote a sustainable future by our commitment to the following efforts:
- Purchase green cleaning products and equipment
- Safely handle and store cleaning products and address hazardous spills
- Follow standard operating procedures
- Train custodial personnel on green cleaning
All buildings cleaned by the Division of Custodial Services staff members use green cleaning products and services. Our core cleaning chemicals are green seal approved. We have made a commitment to purchase green cleaning chemicals. These chemicals are less harmful to those applying the cleaner, building occupants, and the environment than comparable products. We have purchased a cleaning dispensing system that aids us in reducing packaging and ensure chemical portion control. We are committed to purchasing state of the art equipment that will decrease the amount of chemicals used to maintain our floors, and decrease strip out times.
