APARTMENT CLEANING SERVICE

VOLUNTEER MAIDS APARTMENT CLEANING SERVICE

Well, we’ve all been there. The normal cleaning stuff is done. Laundry is done and (mostly) folded. The kitchen is somewhat tidy. Vacuumed recently. Dusted, five, no six weeks ago. Home is in… alright shape.

But whenever you sit down, you have this gnawing certainty that somewhere there is something really gross and you’ve missed it. Maybe a spill behind a piece of furniture. A snack half-eaten and set aside only to grow stale and suspiciously fuzzy. When we had our first daughter, my wife had this little game I called “the grossest Easter egg hunt.” New parents, we struggled to adapt as everyone does. So my wife, a wonderful mother that she is, would change our daughter’s diaper, set it aside, and then immediately pick her up to comfort or play with her.

Normally the diapers were disposed of by the end of the day. But sometimes my daughter would need to be changed in a random part of the house, and days later, a funny smell would emerge. I’d look under her glider chair or behind some toy…and there it was – the “Easter egg.”

That story is gross, but it’s life. We do our best, and sometimes things get particularly gritty. Take our customer Richard’s story, for example. After the pandemic began in 2020, Richard started working from home. Home cleaning wasn’t an option for over a year for him, and so things went tidied but not deep cleaned. His first cleaning, he hired Volunteer Maids to really find the grime and take care of it. Five hours later, he was delighted. Windows cleaned, fixtures polished, deep crevices scoured, and disinfected. He needed a deep cleaning, and we were there to do it.

WHAT’S CLEANED?

 

Our apartment cleaning service is similar to our standard house cleaning service. In the kitchen, our cleaners will disinfect the countertops, clean the outside of appliances, and clean the interior of the microwave. In the bathrooms, the vanity area will be disinfected, toilets and tubs scrubbed, and mirrors and glass surfaces cleaned with Windex. In the living and bedroom areas, ceiling fans and furniture will be dusted, and all glass surfaces and mirrors will be cleaned.

Throughout the apartment, mini blinds, windowsills, and baseboards will be dusted. Any cobwebs will be removed. The floors will be swept and mopped, and the carpets will be vacuumed. We will empty all wastebaskets and remove the trash when we leave.

We can handle any apartment, condominium, dorm, or townhome cleaning job. If you require detailed cleaning, professional carpet cleaning, or have special requests, please let us know, and we will be more than happy to accommodate you.

With Volunteer, you can expect top-notch service tailored to your specific needs.

HOW DO I PREPARE?

To ensure a smooth apartment cleaning experience, there are a few crucial items that require attention: 1) notify your apartment office, 2) provide apartment information and how to locate your unit, and 3) get a discount on all your weekly and bi-weekly apartment cleanings by referring your neighbors!

First, the apartment office is usually how we receive access to your apartment. So please do not forget to notify the apartment office that the Volunteer Maids’ apartment cleaners are coming to clean your home. They will need written permission from you to allow us to enter and clean.

Second, we need to find your apartment as quickly as possible. Please include the following when scheduling an apartment cleaning over the phone or under the “Anything else the Cleaner should know?” section of the online booking page:

  • Name of apartment complex
  • Your building number if applicable
  • Apartment complex office’s work hours
  • Where the office is located if not in the same apartment complex
  • Where our cleaning crew can park and, if necessary, granting permission to park in the parking garage
  •  

Finally, you have access to some amazing deals just because you live in apartments, condominiums, dorms, or townhomes. First, since there is a larger concentration of people in a small area, Volunteer Maids has a chance to avoid travel costs if we serve multiple people in the same building or apartment complex on the same day. So refer your neighbors to give us a chance to pass those savings on to you! Second, apartment residents tend to move more often than homeowners. When it is time to move out, the more expensive move-out clean will be discounted to your lower-cost weekly or bi-weekly cleaning. Read more on these apartment-only savings below.

With Volunteer Maids, you can enjoy exceptional cleaning services and fantastic savings, making your apartment living experience even better!

Frequently Asked Questions

Forgetting about your booking is common, especially among first-timers. But there’s no need to worry! If this is the first time you’ve hired our services, or if this is a one-time service, we will call the day before to ensure your home will be available for cleaning on the next day.


We just need a few things from you to get ready beforehand.


First things first, decide whether you are staying home during the cleaning service, if you are leaving right before handing the keys, or if you will not be home. Promptly let us know during the booking process or before the cleaning day to ensure our staff will be able to enter your home.


Next, please declutter your home a little bit. Of course, this doesn’t mean you need to vacuum, wipe surfaces, dust, or any other cleaning-related task. That’s what we are here for! We just need you to pick items up off the ground and arrange items the best you can. For our cleaners, this means less time and energy spent picking up items, allowing them to focus on cleaning your home.


Finally, don’t forget to place important documents in a safe area such as a drawer or cabinet. Otherwise, they could be mistakenly disposed of by our cleaning staff.

After you take all previous steps, feel free to plan out your day while we clean your home!

Being home to let our staff in is great and perfect for getting started right away. It’s common for customers to wait for our staff to arrive, hand over the keys, and then go enjoy their free time. If you want, you can give them brief instructions or any necessary information.


You don’t need to stay home while our staff works their magic. But if you choose to stay, we kindly ask two things:


First, please avoid hovering over the cleaners. They are professionals with plenty of cleaning experience. While they can occasionally miss an area or surface, like any human being, please wait until they finish. If you notice anything that wasn’t completed to your satisfaction, you can check their work afterward and point it out.


Second, many people work from home, especially since COVID-19. If you prefer to stay home, that’s perfectly fine! We do ask you to stay out of their way while they clean. If you are working, please briefly leave when it’s time for our staff to clean your office or workspace. You can take a break or continue your work in a different area.

We have no problem working with pets! If they are friendly around strangers, feel free to let them roam around your home.


However, if you think they might be aggressive or agitated around our staff, please place them in a secured area or take them to the park while our cleaners work. The last thing we want is an accident or someone getting injured.


Thank you for choosing Volunteer Maids!

At Volunteer Maids, we work hard to ensure your satisfaction throughout the entire process: before, during, and after your cleaning. Part of this involves quality control once our staff completes the service.


The day after your cleaning service, we will call you to ask a few questions about our staff’s performance and interaction with you.


Occasionally, we will request an online review. This will take no more than 5 minutes and helps us showcase our work while assisting others in deciding if our cleaning service fits their needs.


For regular customers, we will follow up occasionally to ensure everything is going perfectly and maintaining our top-notch quality.


If you are less than happy at any point during the service, please call us within 48 hours. We will listen to your concerns, take note, and if the cleaning process was not followed correctly, we will fix it at your earliest convenience at no additional charge.

It’s perfectly normal to hire a one-time service to test the waters and see if you would enjoy recurring cleanings in the future.


We hope you were happy enough with our services to switch to a recurring cleaning schedule. If that’s the case, feel free to let us know during our follow-up call after your service, or use any of our contact methods.


Or simply go to our booking page and select your preferred cleaning frequency!
