Yes, it’s called a house cleaning company or cleaning person. They come with a vacuum cleaner and feather duster, all for the low cost of about $75 an hour.

@Heartlander the cleaners who clean our office only charge 35/hour (min. 2 hours) i'm thinking about using them for my home

@Jenny1234 at one point my bosses used our office cleaner for their houses. they suspected her of stealing. so they told her to bring everything back that she stole and they won't call the cops...she came to our office and laid down everything on one of the desks....i was shocked at what she stole...old shoes, old hand bags....and yes jewelry

@beermeplease unbelievable!! ! I had a mother/daughter team clean my house about 13 years ago. They had left a garbage bag at my back door and told me not to touch it, that they’d put it in the garbage bin for me once they left. They went downstairs and I felt the outside of the bag and it felt like stuff not garbage. I opened it up and it was my kitchen items. I didn’t go through the whole bag. I was so upset.

@Jenny1234 aw....we had one cleaner at my work who was obsessed with our toilet paper. at the time i was the one who ordered it for the company. she asked me where i buy it from so she could order the same. i told her, but they wouldn't sell it to the public, only wholesale/commercial sales.....well guess what started to go missing? and i caught her leaving with it too but didn't say anything right away. she happened to be asian and one of my asian coworkers got upset with me because i got her fired. it turned out she was stocking her other clients bathrooms...she even told me it was her responsibility at those companies...

@beermeplease we get 2 for that $75. A brother and sister team. Actually it’s a flat fee that would compare to the 75. They come every 2 weeks and they stay until done. I think $50 to $75 an hour is the going rate locally. The garden crew of one advertises $100 an hour’
