cleaning crew

Building maintenance workers

A cleaning crew is a group of workers who clean buildings, offices, or other spaces, typically after hours or on a scheduled basis.

The term emphasizes collective labor: The cleaning crew comes in at midnight.

It can refer to professional janitorial staff or any assembled group tackling a mess: We'll need a cleaning crew after this party.
