House keeping, how much are y'all paying and how often? I've fin

My daughter who has 3 boys under 5 and a two story house pays 170.00 every other week .

runnerchick: ask your neighbors who they use. The price you were quoted is insane!

runnerchick :
Your square footage makes a difference in price. An individual housekeeper is less expensive than a company.

The $160 bi-weekly is absolutely reasonable for your size house. My house is only 2,275 sq ft. It's just me that lives here so a fairly easy clean and I pay $165 bi-weekly.
Where did you get a price of $490? That's ridiculous even for an initial clean.
Call a few more companies and see what kind of prices you get.

From a company called Maid This 😅

Kittle :
My sqft is 3081

$500 is still crazy even if it's an initial clean with fridge and oven. Housekeepers do charge extra to clean out the fridge and oven but ... did you tell them you didn't want a New oven, just a clean one. lol
Keep looking. There is a list of housekeeping companies under the Business section here on KDC. You may have to sit down and start dialing and set up a few appts for them to come talk to you and see your house.I wish I could recommend the folks that do my house, but I can't. Besides, they are on leave because one of the cleaners, the daughter, was killed in a car accident 4 weeks ago. I've had them for 10 years but I may be calling that list too because I don't know when, or if, they are coming back.
