What should I do to prepare for my cleaning?

Take care to clean up any clutter like dirty clothes or dirty dishes so the cleaner can focus on cleaning. Make sure anything that needs to be done for the cleaner to get into your home has been taken care of.

What's included in my cleaning?

Please take a look at our cleaning checklist to see included in your cleaning.

How do I pay? Should I give my cleaner a tip?

We allow you pay with your credit card when you request a cleaning on our website and mobile app. We do not store your payment information. Your payment information is handled by the payment solution company, Stripe, which uses a highly secure and strict privacy policy. So your information is in good hands. Your card will only charged once your cleaning is finished. We don’t require tipping, but if you feel your cleaner has gone above and beyond, we won’t stop you!

Do your cleaners do move in or move out cleanings?

Yes! Booking a move in or move out cleaning is an important part of your transition and our Neatso professionals are prepared to help. For these cleanings, you must book at least the full recommended cleaning time and make a note that you’re moving in the ‘special instructions’ of your cleaning when you book. It’s a common misconception that it will take less time to clean an empty home, but often times there are more dirty surfaces that are exposed so booking enough time ensures your cleaner can have time to get to all the exposed surfaces in the home.

Some move in and move out cleanings require special attention that isn’t on our standard cleaning checklist. If you need any of the following items completed, just make a note of them in your special requests field and add 30 minutes per item to your recommended booking time:

• Clean kitchen appliances including ovens, refrigerator and microwave
• Clean out cabinets
• Wipe down baseboards

What if I need to cancel my cleaning?

Contact us to cancel your cleaning at least 48 hours before the service at no charge. If you cancel within 48 hours we charge a $15 cancellation fee. If you cancel within 24 hours we charge a $25 cancellation fee. If your cleaner arrives to your cleaning and can't clean due to a “no-show” on your part, or they are unable to get into your home, or you decide that you do not want the cleaning you will be charged for the full price of the cleaning. This is to protect our cleaners time, a no-show on your part prevents them from cleaning other customer's home and results in lost money from their pocket.
