Why Repeat Customers Choose Karen’s Green Maids For Both Move-in And Move-out Cleaning

I have more than 40 years of cleaning business expertise, and I am the founder of Karen's Green Maids. A one-woman business in a modest Chicago neighborhood has developed into a reputable company with a solid reputation for dependability, environmental responsibility, and meticulous service. However, the number of returning customers that rely on us not just once but repeatedly, whether they're moving in, out, or just need a new beginning, is what really makes me happy.

Over the years, we’ve cleaned more than 8,000 homes across Chicago and have been recognized with multiple “Best of Local Home Services” awards. We hold consistent five-star ratings on Yelp and Google, and we’re proud to be licensed, bonded, insured, and Green Seal–certified—so clients know they’re getting safe, verified, and professional service every single time.

Our Customers Know We Understand the Stress of Moving—And We’ve Got Their Back

We’ve served busy professionals relocating for new jobs, families transitioning between homes, and even seniors downsizing for retirement. What they all have in common is a need for a cleaning service they don’t have to worry about—a team that shows up on time, gets the job done right, and never cuts corners.

That’s where we shine. Our repeat customers return to us because we offer more than just cleaning. We offer peace of mind. For every move-in and move-out, we handle high-touch surfaces, baseboards, appliances, floors, and everything in between. We know what landlords expect, and we tailor every job to meet those standards.

Flat-Rate Pricing and No Surprises: Why Our Transparent Model Builds Trust

One of the most common frustrations we hear from clients who’ve tried other cleaning companies is the dreaded “surprise fees.” At Karen’s Green Maids, we operate on a flat-rate pricing model that’s based on the size of your home and your cleaning needs—no upsells, no unexpected charges, and no fine print.

Whether you’re scheduling a studio move-out or a 3-bedroom move-in clean, you’ll receive a customized quote you can count on. Our clients appreciate the honesty and simplicity, which is why over 85% of our repeat customers say transparent pricing is one of the top reasons they return.

Eco-Friendly Products That Protect Your New Space and Your Loved Ones

Today’s homeowners and renters are more conscious than ever about the products used in their living spaces—and rightly so. Our repeat clients keep coming back because we use only non-toxic, biodegradable, and Green Seal-certified products that are safe for pets, children, and sensitive skin.

In fact, a 2023 national survey found that 78% of U.S. households prefer eco-friendly cleaning services when given the option. That’s why all of our cleaning solutions are free from harsh chemicals, bleach, or artificial fragrances—offering a fresh, safe, and truly clean home for your next chapter.

We’re Prepared For Every Move-In and Move-Out Scenario—So You Don’t Have To Be

Whether you’ve just picked up the keys to a new apartment or are handing them back to a landlord, our detailed checklists ensure no corner is left behind. Clients often remark how our service feels more like a partnership—because it is. We align with your move-in or move-out timeline, work seamlessly with property managers, and offer flexible scheduling to reduce the chaos of transition.

We also stay informed about evolving industry best practices to ensure every service is efficient and respectful of your time and space. That’s why we always recommend clients take simple steps to prepare their home before a scheduled visit—like decluttering or securing pets—which can enhance the results of any professional cleaning.
