Hand-washed dishes, cleaning services includes washing all dishes inside the sink, drying them, and if possible, putting them away, unless specified otherwise. It is a service that is charged per sink full. Washing dishes can be a time-consuming process. “I have a dishwasher, can’t you just put the dishes in the dishwasher?” Yes. Dirty dishes can be placed in the dishwasher. The requirement is that the dishwasher must be one hundred percent empty, and any dishes inside the sink must be free of any stuck-on food. If the dishwasher has items inside, it can be difficult for them to determine whether they are clean or dirty. This is the may reason why we would highly recommend hand-washed dishes as an additional service.
