Need discussion on cleaning service prices?
Add-on prices shift slightly depending on whether they’re attached to a general, deep or move-out clean. Whichever applies to you is confirmed at booking, before anything is charged.
Is that a fair price? Here's the maths.
Care.com puts the going rate for house cleaning around Morristown at $24.16 to $29.00 an hour. That’s about 9% above the New Jersey average of $22.19 and 13% above the national average of $21.40 — Morris County is simply a more expensive market than most of the country, and anyone telling you otherwise is about to surprise you on the invoice.
Local variation is real, too. Care.com’s data has Randolph at $28.33–$34.17 an hour, while Madison sits at $17.43–$21.00. Same county, nearly double the spread.
Our flat rates sit inside that band. The difference isn’t that we’re cheaper than everyone — it’s that you know the number before we knock, and it doesn’t move.
A real example. New Jersey law caps a residential security deposit at one and a half months’ rent. On a typical Morris Plains rental, that’s several thousand dollars sitting with your landlord. A 2-bedroom move-out clean from us is $450. If a professional move-out clean is what stands between you and an argument over that deposit, the arithmetic isn’t close.
The checklist
Exactly what we clean, room by room
Three of the largest cleaning brands operating in this county advertise a numbered checklist — a “49-point checklist,” a “64-point checklist,” a trademarked “rotation system.” Go looking for the actual list on any of their websites and you won’t find it.
Here’s ours. Nothing withheld.
Every room, every visit
Kitchen

Bedrooms and living areas
What a deep clean adds
What a move-in / move-out clean adds
What we don't do
The jobs we'll turn down
Nobody else in this market publishes this, which is odd, because finding out on the day is worse for everyone.
Exterior windows above the ground floor
We clean interior glass. Upper-storey exterior work needs proper equipment and a specialist.
Mould remediation
Surface mildew in a shower, absolutely. Anything structural or behind a wall needs a licensed remediation contractor, and you should be wary of any cleaning company that says otherwise.
Biohazard, pest waste, or hoarding cleanup
Different licensing, different training.
Heavy furniture and appliance moving
We clean behind and under anything two people can shift safely by hand. We won’t drag a fridge across your floor.
Ceiling and wall washing
Beyond spot-cleaning marks.
Chimneys, HVAC ductwork and dryer vents.
Beyond spot-cleaning marks.
If your job needs something on this list, tell us when you book. We’ll either quote it separately or point you at someone who does it properly. Sending you elsewhere costs us one job; doing it badly costs us a reputation.

What we do across Morris Plains and Morris County
Local
Why being in Morris Plains actually matters
We’re at 2467 NJ-10 Bldg 19 Unit 6-B, Morris Plains, NJ 07950. A real unit on Route 10, in the town.
That’s less common than you’d think. Several of the companies you’ll compare us against are national franchises running Morris County out of a regional branch, and the nearest independent competitor operates out of Rockaway. When you search for a cleaning company in Morris Plains, most of what you get back is a business that services Morris Plains rather than one that’s based here.
Here’s what the difference actually buys you.
We're minutes away, not a highway away.
Morris Plains is 2.59 square miles. We’re not sitting on Route 287 hoping to make your window.
We know what these houses are made of.
A large share of the homes in the 07950 area went up in the 1980s. That means original ceramic tile with grout that’s twenty-odd years past its last proper scrub, hardwood that’s been refinished once or twice and can’t take an aggressive floor product, and bathrooms where the hard-water scale has had four decades to bond to the glass. A cleaner who treats that like new construction either does a shallow job or damages something. It’s the single most common thing we get called in to fix after someone else.
We know the schedules.
Morris Plains station has sat on what’s now NJ Transit’s Morristown Line since 1915 — the building’s been on the National Register since 1984 — and it runs straight through to Newark Broad Street, Secaucus, Hoboken and New York Penn. A large number of our clients are on a train before seven and back after seven. Our recurring cleans are built for empty houses and secure key access, because that’s the reality of this town.
We know the turnover.
Honeywell’s Morris Plains campus and the corporate corridor along Route 10 move people in and out of this area constantly, and roughly one home in five around here is a rental rather than owner-occupied. Move-in and move-out work is a steady, significant part of what we do — not an afterthought.
And we know the housing mix.
The 07950 area has roughly 4,800 detached houses and around 1,350 attached homes — townhouses and condos. Those are genuinely different jobs. A three-storey townhouse with a bathroom on every floor is not a three-bedroom ranch, whatever the bedroom count says, and we price and staff accordingly.
Where we clean
Morris Plains, NJ 07950 — our home town and primary service area.
Across Morris County and nearby we also cover Morristown, Parsippany, Denville, Mountain Lakes, Rockaway, Dover, Basking Ridge, Short Hills and Hackettstown.
Green cleaning
The "Green" in the name isn't decoration
Every product that comes into your home is non-toxic, biodegradable, and free of the harsh solvents that make a house smell clean by leaving a chemical film on every surface you own.
If you’ve ever walked into a freshly cleaned room and felt your eyes sting, that’s the film. It’s not clean. It’s residue.
This matters most if there’s a crawling baby in the house who puts their hands on the floor and then in their mouth, a dog or a cat who walks across a treated surface and then grooms themselves, or anyone with asthma, eczema or a chemical sensitivity. It’s also, quietly, better for the people doing the cleaning — our team breathes this stuff for forty hours a week, not two.
What we actually use:
Got a product you’d rather we used? Leave it on the counter and we’ll use it instead. No argument, no upcharge.
Who books us
The people we clean for
Two-income households.
The single most common booking on our schedule is a bi-weekly general clean for a family where both parents work full-time. Fixed day, fixed price, same faces.
Commuters
Train in before seven, home after seven. We clean an empty house and let ourselves in and out.
Renters with an inspection coming
Move-out clean from $390, against a deposit that New Jersey law lets a landlord hold at up to one and a half months’ rent.
Realtors and landlords
Pre-listing cleans and tenant turnovers, often at short notice, often back-to-back. Vacant properties and staged homes are routine for us.
People relocating for work
We’ll clean the place you’re leaving and the place you’re arriving at, and coordinate the two so there’s no gap.
Anyone for whom it's simply become too much
Older clients, people recovering from surgery, new parents. Recurring light cleaning, done gently and without anyone making a thing of it.
Offices and retail along Route 10 and Route 202
$55 an hour per cleaner, scheduled around your trading hours rather than through them.

About

Our team is made up of trusted cleaning professionals who understand that we’re entering your personal space. We treat your home, belongings, and family with the same care we’d expect in our own homes.
What does a cleaning service cost in Morris Plains?
A general clean runs from $120 for a one-bed, one-bath up to $250 for a five-bed, two-bath. Deep cleans are $200–$410, move-in/move-out $390–$900, and commercial work is $55 an hour per cleaner. Full table further up this page. For context, Care.com puts the going hourly rate around Morristown at $24.16–$29.00.
Do I need to be home?
No, and most of our recurring clients aren’t.
Do I need to provide supplies or a vacuum?
No. We bring everything — products, cloths, machines. If you’d prefer we used something of yours, leave it out with a note.
Are your products safe around children and pets?
Yes. Everything we use is non-toxic, biodegradable and free of harsh solvents. It’s the reason the word “Green” is in our name and not just our logo.
Will I get the same cleaners each time?
We do our best to provide the same cleaning professionals for recurring services whenever possible. Consistency helps our team learn your home and preferences. If your regular cleaner is unavailable, we’ll send a trained member of our team so your cleaning stays on schedule and meets our standards.
How long does a clean take?
A deep clean is three to eight hours depending on the size of the home.
How far ahead do I need to book?
We recommend booking as early as possible, especially for recurring cleanings, move-in/move-out cleanings, and weekends. However, we also accommodate last-minute requests whenever our schedule allows. Contact us with your preferred date, and we’ll do our best to find a time that works for you.
Do you clean offices as well as houses?
Yes — $55 an hour per cleaner, evenings and weekends available.
Do you clean apartments, condos and townhouses?
Yes, and they’re a normal part of our week — there are roughly 1,350 attached homes in the 07950 area. Pricing follows bedroom and bathroom count, same table as above, though a multi-storey townhouse with a bathroom on each floor takes longer than the bedroom count suggests and we’ll tell you that upfront.
What's your cancellation policy?
24 hours’ notice, no charge. Less than that, a fee may apply. Full details in the section above.
Should I tip?
Never expected, and it makes no difference to the standard of the clean. Some clients do, most don’t, nobody keeps score.
What if something gets broken?
We treat your home and belongings with care. If something is accidentally damaged during a cleaning, please let us know as soon as possible. We’ll review what happened and work with you to resolve the issue fairly and promptly.
Do you do one-time cleans, or only recurring?
Both, at the same prices. No contract either way.
Which towns do you cover?
Morris Plains is home. We also cover Morristown, Parsippany, Denville, Mountain Lakes, Rockaway, Dover, Basking Ridge, Short Hills and Hackettstown.
How do I pay, and when?
Payment details and timing depend on the cleaning service you book. We’ll explain the payment process when you schedule your cleaning, so you know exactly what to expect before your appointment.
