Consumables and Welcome Packs: What to Restock and What to Skip

Knowing what to restock on every turnover, and what to leave as a one-time purchase, is one of the small operational details that separates a smooth-running listing from one that keeps surprising its host.

What gets restocked every time

The short, repeatable restock list covers toilet paper, hand soap, one dishwasher tablet, a spare bin bag, and washing up liquid if the kitchen sees use. This happens on every single turnover, regardless of anything else a host adds.

What is a one-time setup, not a restock

An amenity, a washing machine, air conditioning, a dishwasher, is a fixed feature checked and maintained rather than refilled. Confusing the two leads to a host either over-buying consumables that never run low or assuming a fixed feature is being replenished when it never was.

Where a welcome pack fits

A welcomepack sits above both: an optional add-on, not a standard part of the restock or a fixed amenity. Skipping it changes nothing about whether a flat is guest-ready.

Conclusion

Restock, amenities and welcome packs are three different budgets, not one blurred category. See what is included in every AutomateBnB turnover.
