Clean big and small areas of the unit removing dust and residue that may have been missed after the previous cleaning.

If this is not done frequently enough, it is possible that illnesses will occur and cause disease to spread at a rapid pace.

Why Is This Important?

After ensuring the portable unit is sanitized, it would not be a bad idea to provide hand sanitizing gels for the visitors to use.

Having access to hand sanitizer or soap in general would make a huge difference because the food people touch and consume will remain fresh, and will cut back on a number of unwanted illnesses.
