Before we confirm your appointment

Cleaning products and vacuum

On the first visit we bring all the cleaning products and our own vacuum. On later visits we still bring our vacuum, and we use your products: you can buy the ones you like, or we can buy them for you and give you the receipt.

Payment

We accept Zelle, Venmo and checks.

Weekday appointments

Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Time for the visit

It depends on the size and condition of the home. We don’t rush: Daniela checks every room before the crew moves on to the next, so larger homes and first visits take longer.

Tipping

Tips are never expected, but always appreciated.

Changing an appointment

Give 48 hours’ notice so we can offer the time to someone else.

Optional keys and access

You do not need to be home if authorized entry is arranged. Providing a key or access code is optional and your choice. If you give us a key for recurring visits, we keep it on file, labeled, for your scheduled visits and return it whenever you ask or when service ends. We only accept one if you choose to give it to us. Share door, lockbox or alarm codes privately when arranging access, not in the quote form.

Missed agreed tasks

Report a missed item on the agreed checklist within 24 hours. We re-clean that item free while we still have access. This is the reporting deadline, not a promise to return that day. Guarantee terms

A return visit requires authorized access. The guarantee provides a re-clean, not a refund.

Apartment Cleaning Questions in Mountainside

How do I book apartment cleaning in Mountainside?

Send the Mountainside address, unit number, how we enter and where to park. We confirm access and price before we book a weekday visit between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.

How much does apartment cleaning cost in Mountainside, NJ?

1–2 BR units: weekly from $140, bi-weekly from $170. Larger condos follow the same size bands as the Mountainside pricing snapshot. First visit may be a deep-clean quote if the unit has buildup. Inside fridge, oven or cabinets extra.

What is included inside my Mountainside apartment?

Agreed rooms in your unit: kitchen surfaces and appliance exteriors, bathrooms, floors, dusting, high-touch surfaces. Light entry wipe. Dishes and laundry stay with you. Bed linens +$20 per bedroom on request. We do not clean hallways, lobbies, gyms or other common areas unless the building hires that separately.

Do you clean apartments and condos in Mountainside?

Yes. We clean apartments and condos in Mountainside and travel from Kenilworth on Route 22. Send the address and unit, who will arrange entry, elevator or stairs, visitor parking and any HOA or front-desk rules. We confirm access before booking and clean inside your unit.

What access do you need?

Unit number, parking or visitor pass, elevator, who will arrange entry, and any HOA rules. If your building requires advance entry approval or a visitor pass, arrange it before the visit and describe the access arrangements in your quote request without including codes.

Is pollen on sills included?

Accessible interior sills and entry floors are on the unit checklist when those rooms are in scope. Screens and interior window glass stay extra.

Who cleans the apartment?

Daniela Marque’s owner-operated crew. No subcontractors. NJ MBE #A0654-63. If we miss an agreed task in your unit, tell us within 24 hours and we come back to re-clean it free. Guarantee terms.

One-time or recurring?

Either. Choose weekly, biweekly or monthly visits according to how the unit is used and how much cleaning it needs between visits. Move-in / move-out for the same unit is a separate quote — use move-in or move-out if that is the job.

Do you bring supplies and a vacuum to my unit?

We arrive with every product and our own vacuum for the first visit to your unit. After that the vacuum still comes with us and we use your products: pick your own, or we buy them for you and hand you the receipt.

How do I pay for apartment cleaning?

Pay by Zelle, Venmo or check.

What days and hours do you clean?

Unit visits run weekdays, Monday to Friday, between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.

How long does an apartment cleaning take?

Unit size and condition decide the time. Daniela checks each room before the crew moves on, so larger units and first visits take longer.

Is a tip expected after an apartment clean?

Tipping is up to you: never expected, always appreciated.

Can I cancel or move my apartment cleaning?

Give us 48 hours' notice to cancel or move the visit so the time can go to another client.

Do I need to be home? Can I leave a key or door code?

No, you don’t need to be in the unit. Leaving a key or code with us is optional; it is your call. We keep one only if you decide to give it. Send door, lockbox or alarm codes in a private message when arranging entry, not in the quote form. Daniela is at every cleaning, and our family has lived in Kenilworth since 2007, so every unit we clean carries our name.

What if I’m not happy with the cleaning?

Tell us within 24 hours which agreed task in your unit was missed, and we re-clean that task at no charge.
