It’s easy to get an estimate based on your individual needs – just follow these 3 steps:
1. Find your local Maid Brigade, because each Maid Brigade office sets their cleaning services prices locally.   Simply type your zip code in the yellow box at the top of this page.  When you hit submit, you will see the local Estimates form. 
2. Complete the local Estimates form.  In order to calculate an estimate Maid Brigade will need some basic information, like what kind of floors you have and how many bathrooms you’d like us to clean.  The form takes only a minute or so to complete.  When you submit the form, it is sent immediately to your local Maid Brigade.  The local owner will calculate your house cleaning rates ASAP.
3. Expect our phone call.  Your local Maid Brigade will call you to verify your needs and give you customized house cleaning prices for the tasks you’d like us to perform in your home.  We will call you within one business day, however usually you’ll hear from us and get your cleaning services prices much sooner – often within an hour if you request house cleaning prices on a business day.

Every home is unique, and no two Maid Brigade customers have the same cleaning needs.  Because our services are customized to suit each family’s needs, our house cleaning rates vary from home to home.  Some factors that affect our cleaning service prices are the size of your home, the number of people and pets, and how often you want your home cleaned, but there are other factors as well.

Most of our clients use our green maid service for regular visits, but we also clean for other reasons:  parties (pre- or post-), seasonal deep cleanings, when company’s sleeping over, post-construction or renovation, asthma and allergy relief and sometimes, just for a well-earned indulgence!

More Green Tips

Be conscientious with your accommodations. Look for hotel accommodations and tours with Green Seal or Green Leaf certifications and standards. Green hotels reduce energy consumption through fluorescent lighting. They also institute recycling programs, and they conserve water through installation of energy star products. If you choose a hotel that does not recycle, consider taking your empty bottles or other items out to recycle. Also, pick a hotel close to public transportation or near the places you are going to visit during your stay. Remember to do your share of “green” by turning off the lights, TV, and air conditioner when leaving your hotel room. Take short showers and leave toiletries behind if you didn’t use them. Hotels too expensive? Stay at a working farm that also functions as inn. They cost less than hotels.
Get around without a car. Reduce your carbon footprint by participating in cheaper, Earth-friendly transportation options like biking, walking and taking public transit. You can even take a low impact walking tour. They are inexpensive and fun! Download from www.greenmap.org to find the latest top spots to visit and to dine.
If you do choose wheels, go green! When selecting a model, choose a smaller economy vehicle or a hybrid. Turn down free upgrades that seem nice but could cost you more money in gas.

Tips for Green Travel

Summertime is coming to a close. Some schools even start back next week! So if you’re trying to get a last-minute trip in, it can be difficult to prioritize traveling green.
The good news is that more and more companies are realizing their impact on the environment and are turning their old ways to newer, greener ones. Here are a few ways to stay green while enjoying the precious rest of your summer:
1. Prepare your home for vacation. Set your air conditioner to 75 degrees. Unplug electrical appliances and televisions. Put lights on timers. Suspend your newspaper and mail delivery until your return.
2. Go paperless. When flying, book electronic tickets to reduce paper waste. Most airlines will scan your smartphone instead of a paper ticket, even at the gate!
