Simply Cleaner Homes
​Residential Services

Simply Cleaner offers three types of Residential Services and extra services that can be added a la carte.  Items that may only need done periodically or yearly are priced a la carte and can be added to any service by calling or notifying us ahead of time so we can adjust the service appointment time frame.
Simply Cleaner reserves the right to deny services for any reason.

Deep Clean Service and Real Estate Service are bid by the square foot.  These services take an average of 6 to 9 hours of labor, additional equipment and product, and more elbow grease.   Why?   Because the service is more detailed and labor heavy.  For homes that are empty it includes the insides of cupboards, drawers, appliances, and bathroom fixtures, closet shelves and a wet washing of trim boards, doors, and light fixtures.  Those are the differences added into a Deep Clean or Real Estate Clean.   *Deep Cleans of homes and offices DO NOT include insides of cupboards, drawers or refrigerator because they are still occupied with personal belongings.

REGULAR SERVICE includes weekly, bi-weekly and monthly services

POLICIES OF SIMPLY CLEANER
Please review PRIOR to your service appointment.

• It is presumed that the home will be in order and somewhat picked up to facilitate heavy cleaning, this includes clearing the floor of shoes, toys and piles, clearing counter tops within reason of paper piles, etc.   
• Pets should be kept out of the way.  Most pets are not bothersome to our team and we enjoy them, but please note we cannot take care of them while there, including cleaning up any potty messes, feeding them, walking them, etc.
• Male occupants and under age children should not be home alone with the Cleaning Team.  
• Arrangements should be made prior to your cleaning appointment regarding how the cleaning team will access your home, where to park, what door to enter.
• If the doorbell rings or someone knocks at your door while we are there cleaning we will not answer it or open it.   Please inform if you have a request that is different than this.
• Payment is due the day of service for first time cleans and Real Estate Cleans.    Payments can be made at the Simply Cleaner Office at 612 E Pierce Street, Council Bluffs, IA 51503

• A late fee will apply to all past due invoices.
• Service appointments may be disrupted if invoice payments are past due.   Services will resume once payments are caught up.
• Keeping a card payment on file does not mean we have your card number.  The number can be entered into the system once and after that we do not have the account number as it does not show us the numbers once they are entered.  We promise our customers to keep your information secure and confidential, and will honor the trust you have in us.

• We cannot guarantee results of mini-blind cleaning. Excessive build up may require added service charges in order to remove grime or dirt build up that does not dust off or wipe off easily.  
• Please allow for some dust in the air after we leave, we try to limit the dust in the air but cannot prevent this entirely.
• Antique items or breakable items are not handled by our cleaning team.  Dry dusting around these items will be a part of the service.
