Cleaning and Home Reset Services
WHAT'S INCLUDED:
Detailed Cleaning, Customized to Your Space
At One Less Thing, every cleaning is customized to the space being cleaned. The condition, size, level of buildup, clutter and overall needs of the room will determine what is addressed during your service.
The lists below outline the types of cleaning I may provide depending on the room and its condition. Some services may require additional time, while others may not be necessary for every space.
This is not a rigid checklist, it's a guide to what you can expect from our detailed cleaning services.

DECLUTTERING & ORGANIZATION
For spaces requiring more than cleaning, decluttering and organization may be incorporated into your service.
Depending on the space and what would work best, this may include:
Sorting and grouping belongings
Removing garbage and unwanted items
Clearing clutter from surfaces
Organizing shelves, drawers and accessible storage
Folding and organizing clothing
Creating more functional spaces
Returning belongings to appropriate locations
Resetting the room after cleaning
Creating practical organization systems
Recommending organizational solutions based on the space
Providing and incorporating organization bins, baskets, containers, labels or other organizational tools when appropriate
Setting up designated spaces for frequently used items
Creating systems designed to make the space easier to maintain
When an organizational system would benefit the space, organizational supplies may be provided as part of the service, depending on the needs of the project.
The goal isn't simply to make things look organized for the day, it's to create a system that is functional, practical and easier to maintain.
THE LEVEL OF CLEANING DEPENDS ON THE SPACE
No two homes are the same.
A regularly maintained kitchen may require a completely different approach than a kitchen with months of accumulated grease and buildup. A bedroom with minimal clutter may require less time than a room that needs significant decluttering and organization.
Your service is customized based on what your space actually needs.
Depending on the condition and severity of the space, your cleaning may include more or less than what is listed above.
My priority is to spend your scheduled time addressing the areas that will make the biggest difference in your space.
CUSTOM QUOTES
Because every space is different, One Less Thing provides customized quotes rather than a one-size-fits-all price.
Photos of the space are helpful when determining the scope of work and providing an estimate.
No cleaning up beforehand is necessary.
If there's something specific you'd like addressed, let me know when requesting your quote and i'll determine whether it can be included based on the scope of the job.
