We're currently looking for ways to streamline supplies for cleaners (toiletries, towels, item replacements) and handle small handyman issues.

The biggest mistake new investors make is to walk a property, maybe explain in general terms what they want and then let the contractor come up with the SoW.For a bedroom this could be:- replace carpet- repair closet dooror- remove carpet- remove curtains, nails and screws- replace closet doors, entry door SKU#- replace window SKU#- refinish hardwood floors 144 sqft, clear/oil-based- prep and paint all woodwork- patch walls, texture, paint walls eggshell white clay, ceiling flat white- replace light fixture SKU#, replace lightswitch w decora/white, replace 3 outlets&covers- install blinds SKU#Obviously, the cost would be quite different.

Either a neighbor, cleaner, or some trash companies you can pay extra to pull the trash cans out for you.

Updated backyard with artificial turf, painted entire exterior of home, replaced carpet with vinyl planks.

Don't use carpet in any rental property. 

Quote from @Jeremy VanDolder: First, I think you made a mistake by sending a cleaner once a month.

Find a new cleaner, handyperson, take pro pictures etc etc.

If you have enough unit it will make sense to have cleaner on your payroll but to starting off, most common sense is to find a very high quality, reliable cleaner that works with your budget.

This has been asked and answered many times.Ship to house or your cleaners.Have cleaners setup stuff or hire a handyman for stuff that needs to be assembled.
