Headed Out of Town? Return to a Sparkling Clean Home

There’s no better feeling than stepping into a fresh, clean home after being out of town.

Whether you’re planning an MLK weekend road trip or penciling in travel plans for later this year, remember to schedule a professional home cleaning with Well-Paid Maids, the District’s only living-wage cleaning company.

With Well-Paid Maids, you don’t have to be home for your cleaning. Simply drop your key off or arrange plans to buzz your cleaner in. If you have any special instructions, detail them in home access instructions/parking/other notes when you book your cleaning.

Here’s what one reviewer had to say:

So we came home today to a completely different apartment. I thought we kept it pretty neat and clean, but [it] hasn’t looked like this since we moved in. They cleaned EVERYTHING.

Not only will Well-Paid Maids ensure your home is clean when you return, you can feel good supporting the company. It pays cleaners, who are W-2 employees, a starting wage of $22 an hour and offers insurance, 24 paid days off per year, 100% employer-paid commuting costs and more.

So before you skip town, book a professional home cleaning. Your future post-vacation self will thank you.

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!

Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.

Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
