Running a Cleaning Business

Cleaning Business Software
Run the Whole House Cleaning Company From One Place

A house cleaning company is a long list of homes, each with its own bedrooms, bathrooms, pets, extras and lockbox code, cleaned on its own rhythm by a team that needs all of it on their phone. MaidBossPro keeps the quotes, recurring cleanings, team routes, customer texts, invoices and card-on-file payments together, so the owner spends the evening at home instead of at the kitchen table with a stack of paper.

MaidBossPro cleaning business software showing recurring house cleanings, team routes and cleaning details for each home

Affordable Doesn't Mean Cheap.
This Is Real Software for Running a Cleaning Business.

Plans start at $59/month, and every plan includes the office tools, the team app and the customer app. Quotes, recurring schedules, routes, texts and billing are part of the platform, not add-ons you buy one at a time. For the full product tour, start at MaidBossPro, then come back here for the owner's side of running the company.

📝

Quotes That Become Jobs

Build an estimate from your own service list, tie prices to bedrooms, bathrooms or square feet, and the approved estimate becomes the scheduled clean.

🔁

Recurring in Fixed Slots

Weekly, every two weeks or monthly. Each regular keeps the same day, time and team, with months of visits already on the schedule, so nobody falls off it.

🏠

Every Home Remembered

Beds, baths, pets, extras and the entry code carry forward from the last visit. Nobody re-types the lockbox code.

📱

A Team App That Works

The day's homes in route order, entry notes, extras, photos and Start / Skip / Complete on any iPhone or Android.

💬

Customers in the Loop

Night-before reminders, on-the-way and arrived texts, two-way texting and a customer app with a live route map.

💳

Paid When It's Done

Complete creates the invoice and can charge the card on file. Offices and rentals can get one monthly statement.

Know What Is Booked, Who Is Cleaning It and What Got Paid

Most cleaning company owners can tell you the name of every client and the quirks of every kitchen. What gets hard is holding all of it in your head once there are two teams and a waiting list of new homes. MaidBossPro puts the whole week in front of you: which regulars are in which slots, what one-off work is waiting to be booked, what is done and what still needs to be collected.

  • Recurring Cleanings list with each client's fixed slot, plus a Waiting List for one-off work
  • Scheduled List by day and by team, with auto-routing
  • Cleaning type, beds, baths, square feet, pets and extras on every job
  • Entry notes for lockboxes, keys, door codes and alarms
  • Invoices, card on file and past-due follow-up
  • Office user roles and employees with personal PINs

Set Up in an Afternoon, Run It Every Day

You started a cleaning business to clean homes and build something of your own, not to learn complicated software. MaidBossPro follows the way a cleaning company already works: a home, a cleaning type, a schedule, a team and an invoice. It runs in the browser on the computers and phones you already have.

01

Add Your Clients and Services

Bring clients in by CSV import or one at a time, with addresses placed on the map. Set up your own service list with standard, deep, move-out and add-on prices.

02

Set Each Home's Rhythm

Weekly, every two weeks or monthly, on the same day, at the same time, with the same team. Add Recurring Cleaning puts 3, 6 or 12 months of visits on the schedule, and one-time deep cleans fit in around them.

03

Build the Day by Team

Assign cleanings to Team 1 or Team 2, auto-route Closest First or Furthest First from the office, and print route sheets if you want them.

04

Clean, Complete, Get Paid

Teams work from their phones. Complete creates the invoice and can charge the card on file, and the next visit is already on the schedule in its slot.

Paper, Spreadsheets and Group Texts Stop Working at the Second Team

One cleaner with a notebook can keep a dozen homes straight. Two teams, a waiting list of new sign-ups and a handful of every-two-weeks clients who all want Thursdays is a different job. Generic field-service software helps a little, but it rarely knows what a bedroom count, a pet or a lockbox code means to a cleaning team.

Ask any cleaning company owner where the week goes and you will hear the same story: a spreadsheet of recurring clients that somebody forgot to update, a door code buried in a text thread from last spring, and a deep clean where nobody wrote down that the customer paid for inside the oven and inside the fridge. A card that declined on Friday and was not noticed until the next visit. An every-two-weeks client who quietly went six weeks without a clean.

None of that is a cleaning problem. It is a record-keeping problem. When the details live on the home and the schedule runs itself, any team can clean any house and the owner stops being the only person who knows how the business works.

MaidBossPro keeps the client, the home, the schedule and the money in one place, from the first quote to the paid invoice.

Built for the Jump From One Team to Three

The first team is the owner plus a helper. The second team is the first time the owner is not in the house. The third team is when the owner finally works on the business instead of in it. Each step needs the same thing: the details of every home written down where the team can see them, a schedule that does not depend on one person's memory, and billing that happens on its own. For the full picture, read Cleaning Business Software: The Complete Guide to Running a House Cleaning Company.

  • Each team set up like its own vehicle, Team 1, Team 2, Team 3
  • Employees with personal PINs and team assignments
  • Home details that carry forward to whichever team goes
  • Office user roles for a scheduler or office manager
  • Reports to check the week without riding along
  • CSV import when you move over from spreadsheets
Example Scheduled List — Thursday
Team 1
Every-two-weeks homes on the north side
Team 2
Weekly homes and two first-time deep cleans
Team 3
Small offices and rentals · one monthly statement
Owner
Walk-throughs, quotes and a quality check
Every team, every home, in order.

Clients Who Know When You're Coming Stay Longer

Recurring cleaning clients stay when the visits feel easy. A reminder the night before so the dishes are out of the sink, an on-the-way text so the dog is put away, an arrived text so nobody is surprised by the doorbell. The customer app shows a live map of the route, holds their invoices and card, and gives them a place to request an extra clean, rate a visit and refer a neighbor.

  • Night-before, when-they're-next and team-arrived alerts, chosen by the customer
  • Live route map: “You're stop 12 of 20 — the crew is 5 stops away”
  • Two-way texting with the office
  • Invoices, online payment and card updates
  • Before-and-after photos on past visits when you turn them on

Cleaning Business Software — Common Questions

Is MaidBossPro only for big cleaning companies?

No. It works for a solo cleaner with a dozen recurring homes and for an owner running several teams. The Start plan is built for a small operation, and you move up to Pro or Crew as the company grows.

What kinds of cleaning work does it handle?

Recurring residential cleanings on a weekly, every-two-weeks or monthly rhythm, deep cleans, first-time cleans, move-in and move-out cleans, post-construction cleans, and small office or rental-property accounts. Each job carries its cleaning type, bedrooms, bathrooms, square feet, pets, extras and entry notes.

Can I bring over my clients from a spreadsheet?

Yes. CSV import brings in your clients and addresses, and the addresses are placed on the map automatically. You can then set each home's schedule and cleaning details.

Do my cleaners need to download an app?

No app store download. The team app runs in the browser on iPhone and Android and can be installed to the home screen. Cleaners log in with your company login and their own personal PIN.

How do customers pay?

When a team taps Complete, an invoice is created and a card on file can be charged. Customers can also pay online in the customer app, and offices or property managers can be set to Monthly so they get one statement covering every location.

How much does it cost?

Start is $59/month, Pro is $89/month, and Crew is $199/month. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial with no credit card.

Running the business is one side of MaidBossPro. For recurring cleanings, the Waiting List for one-off work, the team app, customer app, estimates and billing in detail, see the full MaidBossPro platform overview.
