"They were on time, professional, and very detail-oriented throughout the entire process."
I don’t usually leave reviews, but DM House Cleaning did a really solid job. They were on time, professional, and very detail-oriented throughout the entire process.
What stood out the most was the attention to detail — they didn’t just clean the obvious areas, they went deeper and made sure everything was properly taken care of. The place felt genuinely clean and well-maintained after they finished.
If you’re looking for a dependable and professional cleaning service in the area, they’re definitely worth considering.

Before your West Orange apartment visit is booked
Cleaning products and vacuum
At the first apartment visit we carry up all the cleaning products and our vacuum. After that the vacuum keeps coming with us while we use your products, bought by you or picked up by us with the receipt.
Payment
Payment in the unit is by Zelle, Venmo or check.
Weekday appointments
Apartment visits: Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Time for the visit
Timing follows the unit's size and condition. Daniela looks over every room before the crew goes to the next, so larger apartments and first visits take more time.
Tipping
Tips are welcome but never expected.
Changing an appointment
Changing the date needs 48 hours' notice, so another household can use the slot.
Optional keys and access
You can be out if authorized entry is arranged with the building. Handing over a key or code is your choice, and codes are shared privately rather than in the quote form.
Missed agreed tasks
Report a missed unit task within 24 hours of the visit and it is re-cleaned free. A return visit also requires access to the property.
Coming back needs authorized entry to the building and unit; the guarantee is a re-clean, not a refund.

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.
FAQ — Apartment Cleaning West Orange
What will a West Orange apartment clean cost me?
A West Orange unit is priced on its size and its condition. Prices start at $120 per visit; the exact amount is fixed from the work you ask for. Square footage, bathrooms and whether the unit needs a first deep clean or a routine visit count most. Ask for a free quote and the exact figure follows.
What gets cleaned on a West Orange apartment visit?
The rooms inside your unit on the checklist: kitchen surfaces and fronts, bathrooms, floors and the dusting we can reach. Studios are welcome. Dishes and laundry are left out, a bed-linen change is $20 per bedroom when asked for, and interiors cost extra.
Who will be working inside my West Orange apartment?
DM's owner, Daniela Marque, together with her own small crew; the job is never handed to subcontractors. DM is NJ MBE certified. A missed checklist item reported within 24 hours is re-cleaned free while we can get back into the unit.
What lead time does a West Orange apartment clean need?
Give us your preferred date plus any lease or moving deadline; a reply reaches you that day or the day after. The visit is booked once the unit list, the building entry and a weekday slot between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. all line up.
Does my West Orange landlord have to approve a cleaner?
It depends on what your lease says. Check it and get the OK if it is required; our work stays in the rooms of your own unit.
How is a West Orange studio priced?
From its own size and condition, on the same room-by-room list used for any apartment.
Can my West Orange unit be cleaned before my lease runs out?
Yes. Send the lease end date and any landlord checklist, and we confirm a weekday once entry is sorted.
Will you clean the hallway of my West Orange building?
Only when the building approves it and a separate commercial quote is agreed; the apartment price covers your unit alone.
Could the same visit take in my West Orange apartment's storage unit?
Only rooms inside your unit are in the quote; storage interiors are an extra priced only when you ask.
Is the first West Orange apartment visit longer?
Often, yes. First visits take more time because Daniela checks each room before the crew moves on.
