Airbnb inventory, under control

Managing supplies in a short-term rental

A missing roll costs a lot

Supplies weigh little in the budget and a lot in reviews. No toilet paper at 11pm, no coffee capsule on checkout morning: there goes a star.

On the other hand, overstocking ties up money and space. Good inventory management aims for just enough to last until the next restock.

Three numbers not to mix up

The reserve is what is left in the property. The quantity put out is what your cleaner leaves at each cleaning. The threshold is when to buy more.

CleanClac keeps them apart: the reserve only drops by what was actually put out, not by what the checklist asks for.

A threshold that leaves time to buy

Two rolls per cleaning, three cleanings a week, shopping on Mondays: you need at least six rolls left when the alert comes in.

For a refill tracked by level, such as hand soap, an alert at 25% usually leaves enough time to restock.

One stock per property

Each property has its own thresholds and history. The property list shows which ones need restocking, and the email names the property so you can group your shopping.

Linen is handled separately, with the linen tasks. And CleanClac never orders for you: you keep your suppliers.

Fewer messages, fewer gaps

Your cleaner no longer has to text you that the soap is running out: they report it when ticking off the task, and the alert goes out on its own. You restock before running out, not after.
