Cleaning Service
Anyone use a cleaning service?
I've been traveling for work a lot and the Warden is in grad school two nights per week. We're behind on the housework. I suggested that we look into hiring a cleaning service to come in once or twice a month. The Warden got upset, thinking that I was picking on her. What to do? Pretty sure we can afford it (though I don't know how much it actually costs), and it would save us some time. Any of you know how much it costs and how frequently they show up? |

[/ QUOTE ] twice a month for general cleaning should run around $50-$75. More for additional cleaning/stuff like bathtubs, etc. Check your local junk mail/coupon booklet. They have a lot of good deals in there. Funny you bring this up, my wife and I are contemplating doing the same thing. Mainly because we are lazy and can afford to.

Re: Cleaning Service
I have one. I also have a 2 bedroom apt. Though. They come every 2 weeks and do a damn good job too.I mean top to bottom, They even move the fridge can clean under it.
It cost me 55$ per visit. Which I split with my roomate [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] This is well worth it. |

Re: Cleaning Service
$55 a trip every other Thursday. General cleaning, no laundry.

Must be lucky down here in the Atl burbs.
For them to basically spring clean your house it's only $100. |

Re: Cleaning Service
I can't believe your wife got upset. It is money well spent if you can find somebody good. Tell her not to worry, there is still cleaning to do. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Re: Cleaning Service
By "cleaning", are they picking stuff up and organizing, or are they dusting/washing, or both?

Re: Cleaning Service
Not entirely sure, but I think she took the suggestion as an insult to her "womanhood." Either that or she thought I was picking on her for not cleaning her bathroom (mine is spotless, by the way).
I basically want someone to come in twice a month and wash the floors and dust the surfaces. We have hardwoods throughout so sweeping up isn't a big deal, but I loathe pushing a mop. Especially this time of year, the floors are dulled by road salt, dirt, and water. I want these floors shiny! |

Re: Cleaning Service
I would hope they're just cleaning, not organizing or picking up. Where I put my stuff is my business.
