If you are a working couple and thinking of hiring House Cleaners or Maid Services, you need to think twice. Some people said it is not a good idea, hiring a person to clean your house that you don’t know. That is a subjective topic. This will always depend on how you will treat the person that will work for you. If you discriminate them or treat them like a slave, then that will be a different story.
House Cleaners or some called Maids, are those people who work really hard to earn money. That hard-earned money is the only source of income they use to feed and support their family and loved ones. They are helping millions of families every day to clean houses, organizing things or sometimes, running errands. The way I see it, hiring House Cleaners is NOT a bad idea at all.
Some tips before hiring: House Cleaners
Store and Hide: Ensure all your sensitive documents, jewelry, money, and other important things are securely stored. This is only a precautionary measure before you let somebody at your house. This is the same analogy if you are holding an event at your house. You don’t want your guests to see your important stuff lying around because you don’t know what could possibly happen.
Stack and Organize: If your intention for hiring house cleaners is only to clean the whole house and not to organize things. Ensure that all the area that you want to be cleaned doesn’t have knick-knacks around it. Believe me, you will save money in the long run especially if you are planning to hire them as your regular cleaners.
Do your diligence: Before hiring house cleaners, look at the background of the company, verify if the reviews are authentic (yelp.com is a good source), and lastly, if the price is lower than the market price or in layman’s term “too good to be true”, you need to think twice. Normally, when the products or services are low-cost meaning it produces low-quality results.
