Getting the most out of your cleaning service starts before the team arrives. A few simple steps on your end make the visit more effective and ensure the team spends their time actually cleaning, not organizing or working around obstacles.
Pick up personal items and clutter: Clear counters, tables, desks, and floors of loose items — mail, toys, clothing, shoes, electronics. The cleaning team needs access to surfaces to clean them. The less time spent moving things around, the more time goes into actual cleaning.
Secure valuables and sensitive documents: We background-check and insure our team, but for your own peace of mind, put away jewelry, cash, medications, and important papers before the visit.
Ensure access to all rooms: If there are rooms you want cleaned, make sure they're accessible. Unlock bedrooms, bathrooms, and storage areas. If a room is off-limits, let us know when you book.
Communicate priorities: Is the kitchen your main concern? Do the bathrooms need extra attention? Mention it when you book or leave a note. This helps the team allocate their time effectively.
Manage pets: If you have dogs or cats, let us know in advance. Secure pets that may be anxious around strangers, or note if they're friendly and can stay out. Pet hair cleanup is part of our service — we just need to know what to expect.
Do dishes beforehand: Standard cleaning doesn't include doing dishes. If you'd like clear counters, run the dishwasher or do a quick wash before the visit. If dishes are in a drying rack, we'll put them away.
Parking and building access: If you're in a condo or apartment building, let us know about parking, visitor codes, or concierge procedures. The team shouldn't spend 15 minutes trying to get in.
These small preparations make a real difference in the quality and speed of each visit. Book your cleaning online or call 438-867-8770.
