Unlike the competition, with Merry Maids you will get:

• Get paid for the entire time you work, from the time you start to the time you finish, not just the hours spent in-home cleaning.

• Paid mileage. We understand it’s expensive to get around, that’s why Merry Maids will always compensate you for your time and mileage usage.
• We keep track of customer keys, so you don’t have to worry about more than you should. The only time you’ll be responsible for a customer’s keys is when you are going to/from a customer’s home, otherwise we keep them safe and locked up in our office.
• We communicate with the clients, so you can spend time focusing on the cleaning. Running late? Need to re-schedule? We will liaise with the clients to ensure everyone is always on the same page.
• We offer real opportunities for advancement. You have ambitions and we want to cultivate them, which is why we offer genuine opportunities for advancement within our company. We understand what an asset a hard-working employee is, which is why we reward those who work hard for us!
