U of I Custodial Services

Custodial Services provides and maintains a comfortable, attractive and secure environment inside academic buildings on campus, including student dorms and apartments, and multi-use locations such as the ICCU Arena and ASUI Kibbie Dome. We manage routine, emergency, and special cleaning requests. We handle unlocking and locking of buildings and classrooms, replacements of light bulbs/tubes, pest control, event cleaning, weekend custodial work and facilitate the removal of snow and ice in front of building entrances. Our focus is on core duties relating to life safety and hazard mitigation, compliance with current University of Idaho policies and regulations, and primary cleaning tasks.  We provide quick response to requests and emergencies 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays.  Customer service is important to us, and we work closely with other UI departments and guests of the University to maintain a safe, clean, and orderly environment.  We strive to use our limited resources to the fullest advantage, and are committed to implementing practices that are environmentally friendly and promote sustainability (see our Green Cleaning policy). Custodial Services is a part of the Facilities team and works closely with Facilities Operations to accomplish our common mission.

Recycling Services, currently under development, provides single stream recycling to common areas of campus building and Housing.
