College & University Cleaning Services
Campus cleaning for colleges, universities and sixth-form centres across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire. University client since 2000 · 600+ education staff · DBS checked · ISO 9001 & 14001.
ICS Cleaning provides college and university cleaning across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, including York, Leeds, Hull, Sheffield and Lincoln. Campuses mix teaching blocks, lecture theatres, laboratories, workshops, libraries, refectories, sports facilities and offices, each with its own usage pattern and standard. We plan cleaning around your timetable and academic calendar: daytime teams where footfall is highest, deeper cleaning out of hours, and planned deep cleans through the vacations.
We have cleaned for a university client since 2000 and employ more than 600 staff in education settings, so campus contracts are run by people who know how further and higher education buildings are used. For schools and multi-academy trusts, see our education cleaning services.

Why Colleges and Universities Choose ICS Cleaning
College and University Cleaning Questions
Do you provide university and college cleaning in York, Leeds and Hull?▾
Yes. ICS Cleaning provides college and university cleaning across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, including York, Leeds, Hull, Sheffield, Doncaster, Grimsby and Lincoln. Each contract is supported by a local area manager rather than a remote call centre.
How is campus cleaning planned around lectures and events?▾
Campuses are used from early morning into the evening, so we combine daytime teams in high-traffic areas such as receptions, libraries, refectories and washrooms with deeper cleaning out of hours. Schedules follow your timetable, term or semester dates and events calendar.
Do you carry out vacation deep cleans?▾
Yes. Summer, Christmas and Easter vacations are used for planned periodic work such as hard-floor machine scrubbing, strip and seal, carpet extraction, high-level dusting and washroom descaling, so buildings are ready for the next term.
Are your campus cleaning staff DBS checked?▾
Operatives deployed to education sites complete an enhanced DBS check before starting, alongside safeguarding awareness training. The appropriate check level for each role depends on the work and setting, and records are kept for client assurance.
Can you clean several campuses or buildings under one contract?▾
Yes. We manage multi-building and multi-site education contracts with one specification, consistent standards and monthly quality reporting by building, while each site keeps its own local team.
