Millions have used the Handy platform to book the best housekeeping services available. Take back control of your time and your environment. Your chosen cleaner will tackle the housekeeping jobs you don’t have time for, from dusting and cleaning the floors, to sanitizing the toilet to taking out your garbage and recycling. 

Skilled and Capable

The best housekeepers know exactly which cleaning solutions to use on which surfaces in order to clean them safely and professionally without any risk of damage. The housekeeping professionals on the Handy platform have learned more than a thing or two about how to best clean your home. You can rest assured that they will take great care of your personal space and bring a level of attention to detail that will shock and astonish you.

Reliable

The stress of returning to a home that is indistinguishable from a dumpster at the end of the day can’t be underestimated. If you live alone, it can even make you feel guilty. Once your day is done, you want to come home to an environment that you can be proud of. One that you can welcome people back to, without fear of judgement. Luckily, you can relax and know that your reliable and dependable housekeeper will leave things in a state that will be sure to impress even the most picky critics. 

Flexible

When you’ve got a busy life to take care of, it’s good to know that you can book a top housekeeping service at any time of the day or night from the comfort of your own home. Housekeeping bookings are available between the hours of 7 AM and 11 PM, 7 days a week. We know your life is busy, so let Handy flex to fit it — not the other way around.

The Best Housekeeping Referral Agency

An Affordable Luxury

Choosing to outsource your cheap housekeeping is a great way to make better use of your time, whether you need to focus on work or your family. With the housekeeping taken care of, you can come back to a home that looks warm, welcoming, and super-clean.

You Deserve a Break

The Handy platform allows you to book housekeeping services as whenever you like. If you’re low on time, you can book a professional cleaner to come on a regular basis, be it weekly, biweekly, or monthly. You might be organizing a special party or celebration and focusing on more important things than breaking out the housekeeping equipment. Book a cheap housekeeping service provider through Handy and you can get on with the cooking or the decorations, while your home is prepared to receive your guests.

Christina L.

Thank you so much for your excellent, professional work, Vasilika! You made the apartment looks spotless, like a magic in just a few hours!

Anna S.

I wish the bathroom grout was cleaned a bit more thoroughly but overall i was very satisfied. My home looked and smelled great!

Jacob R.

This was my first time working wit Jamal, and he did a really solid job overall. Everything was clean generally well-arranged. There are a few little touches that I think could be improved such as putting things back where they were (there were a few sink items that were left on top of the microwave) and putting new liners in the trash bins after emptying the previous ones that would bring it up to perfect.

Carmen K.

Brenda is a big help to us and gets our home wonderfully clean! Always appreciate her excellent and kind service.

Rebecca C.

Quantasia has cleaned our place several times and does a great job. Of the different pros we have had, she leaves our bathroom the cleanest by far. All of our little area rugs also look very clean after she is here so I feel she pays attention to detail. I am happy for her to be our regular pro!

Stephanie C.

Daniela was super friendly and very thorough! I was happy to come home to a very clean apartment. She didn't miss a spot!

Jessie S.

I could still see some dust and dort around the flat but 95% of the flat was cleaned perfectly! Deep oven and fridge clean was a dream!

You really got our apartment to shine! I didnt even think our shower could get clean like that again.

Izzy G.

Emma was awesome! My apartment desperately needed a good clean and in two hours Emma did a great job.

Katryna J.

Anna did a great job with our apartment. Not only was everything wiped down and looking brand new, but nothing was out of place :) Would highly recommend!
