Lesson: Inventory & Supply Management – Building Systems for Consistency

Module 5: Team, Systems & Operations

In short

Supplies rarely earn praise, but missing ones always cause complaints. A par level is the amount of each item that should be at the property at all times, based on how much a typical stay uses and how often you restock. When your cleaner counts against written par levels every clean and flags low items, you avoid emergency shopping trips and guests never run out.

Questions people ask

What is a par level in short-term rentals?

It is the amount of an item that should be on site at all times, paired with a lower reorder point that tells you when to buy more. It takes the guesswork out of restocking.

Who should restock supplies at an Airbnb?

Usually the cleaner checks stock at every turnover and tops up from a storage cupboard at the property, while the host or team orders anything flagged as low.

Are refill dispensers better than small toiletry bottles?

For most hosts, yes. Wall-mounted dispensers with bulk refills usually cost less over a year than small bottles, look tidier and create less waste.
