Running an Airbnb let, especially if there’s more than one, can get tedious if you’re not on top of the basic products you need. This article is a simple list of the basic things you need to run your property. They are all non-perishable, so there is every reason to keep a large stock of these items.
Products to keep in stock in case of breakages
Regular “Top-Up” Products
- Tea and coffee and milk sachets
- Toilet Roll
- Kitchen Roll
- Light Bulbs
- Dishwasher Tablets
- Tea Towels
- Kitchen Sponges (always leave out a clean sponge for the next guest)
- Soap top-ups for the bathroom
- Microfibre Cloths
- Powerful descaler (I recommend this one – please see my review)
Things that get broken
Inevitably things will get broken. We, therefore, recommend sticking to the same brand of glasses, plates, etc, so that they can easily be replaced. Amazon’s own brand provides an excellent choice for this. It’s simple, stylish, and you can easily get more of it. Here are my recommended dining set choices.
Cleaning Products
- Bleach
- Toilet cleaner
- Wipes for glass
- Glass cleaner
- Vanish Stain Remover
Spare bedding
- Pillows
- Duvets
- Sheets
- Pillowcases
- Blankets
Spare items that go “missing”
- Hair Dryers
- USB cables (if you provide them)
