Checkout template

Airbnb checkout instructions template

Checkout instructions should be clear enough to protect the property without making guests feel they are doing a cleaning job. The best version is short, practical, and easy to find.

What this solves

  • Tell guests exactly what to do before leaving.
  • Reduce forgotten keys, open windows, trash issues, and late checkout confusion.
  • Keep checkout steps in the same guide as check-in and house rules.
  • Make instructions firm but guest-friendly.

Keep checkout simple

Guests are leaving, packing, and often rushing. A short checklist works better than a long paragraph.

What to include

Focus on the actions that protect your property and help the next turnover.

  • Checkout time and late checkout policy.
  • Key, card, or lockbox return.
  • Trash, dishes, windows, lights, heating, and AC.
  • Where to leave used towels or linens if needed.

How CheckInLink helps

CheckInLink keeps checkout instructions inside the guest guide so guests can reopen them without searching through messages on the morning they leave.

A checkout note guests can find on the morning they leave

Checkout questions usually happen when guests are packing, rushing, and trying not to miss transport. A short mobile checklist is easier than asking them to find one old message.

  • Checkout time and key return stay visible in the guide.
  • Guests can check final steps without messaging you.
  • The tone stays firm without making checkout feel punitive.
  • Reduce forgotten keys and unclear key return.
  • Keep checkout reasonable and guest-friendly.
  • Protect turnover basics without sounding like a cleaning contract.

No guest account. No app download. One mobile link guests can reopen.
