Cleaning 101 Video - Clean House Life Hacks - House Cleaning Secrets House Keeper Video Merry Maids

So I know the video looks like you just stuck in your vcr copy of Mrs. Doubtfire from 1993 but don't let the quality fool you. In this video, you will find some tips and tricks that will make cleaning your home a little less stressful and a lot more productive.
Everyone hates to clean but everyone loves a clean house. Is there a best way to clean your house fast? Most novices aren’t sure if they should dust or vacuum first. They wonder whether they should clean the kitchen before the bathroom or vice versa. Follow this step-by-step guide, based on years of hard-earned experience, to make the most of your time and clean your house fast.
The biggest question I get is "What all does Merry Maids do?" The simple answer...we clean your house...the Merry Maids way? Let's be honest, everyone knows how to clean. The question is, do you know how to clean efficiently? Let's say you wake up early Saturday morning and you are about to tackle your home and give it a good deep clean. Here is one tip that a lot of people don't know. Our rudimentary method is Top to Bottom, Left to Right. For example, when you walk in a room, start at the top first and then work your way down. Naturally you would not vacuum the carpet and then clean the ceiling fan. Dust from the fan would get on your freshly cleaned carpet.
My Shreveport Franchise is loaded with intelligent and hard working housekeepers that are ready help. Search for Merry Maids Shreveport and then relax. We'll take care of the rest!

Dear Merry Maids-your employees do NOT make enough money to scrub bathroom floors on their knees. Give them a Swiffer or O'Cedar mop and a raise. :)

[@jeanettewhite4101]

I worked for Merry Maids for 10 years. Same training video. we did toilets and cleaned out fridges and ovens. I was there 2005 to2015

Did you actually clean the floors on your hands and knees?

People complaining about how the video is old, well, the cleaning has been the same since the beginning of time, what do you want to see? Rumba cleaning? 😂 the only thing that has changed is that we now use microfiber cloths and the use of stainless steel cleaner and stone cleaner, other than that the process is the same and it will be the same until AI technology takes over and kills the house cleaning business. I've never worked for merry maids but I do clean the same, I came here to see if I can learn something from the #1 cleaning company in the USA, but I guess I'm doing everything right 😁🙏🏻👍, the only thing is that the shower must be wetted before putting any solution to avoid damaging the surface, plus the oxygen un the water works best with the cleaning solution.

[@amonymosywolf2061]

so true there trying save money and just use water and telling us that clearing lol

[@michelle20900]

I came here to learn too, but in my business I do wet cleaning first, like the bathrooms and kitchens, so that when I do the dry I can vacuum out and not walk back over the carpet to get to the bathrooms. I hope technology cannot take over. I enjoy how I do things. Someone told me to use a rumba while I clean other rooms and I may never do that. Nice basic video though.

[@lilladydeuce]

I worked at a Merry Maids in California and their cleaning products for the most part were from Service Master, their mother company, not exclusively but they mostly came from home office in Omaha, NB. Private label brand but it worked great. Some products had a strong smell but no worse than something you can buy in your local market. Loved the time there met lots of interesting and cool people.

[@lyndacoles]

Are the upholstery and crevice tools on the porta vac sanitized after every use? I am greatly disturbed by the fact they are used to vacuum behind the toilet (where there will be high levels of bacteria from bodily fluid spills and splashes) and are also used to vacuum upholstery. To be honest, I’ve watched lots of training videos for cleaning services and it’s actually putting me off using them because (as a former microbiologist and RN), their processes are not very sanitary and not many seem to use disinfectant for appropriate areas such as bathrooms and kitchens. There is a huge difference between just looking clean and actually being clean.

[@krysiunia]

A lot of residential cleaning companies make a point of using cleaning tools (including the vacuum cleaner) that belongs to the homeowner, if available. If not, the vacuum gets sanitized after each home. Stuff that we take away like microfibre cloths, mop heads, etc, get laundered. You can ask cleaners about their practices when you shop around.

[@Callie-uk7mo]

When I worked there, no. It's gross... We would go to a cat lady's house (like 15 cats) then right after go to a super clean house and I felt so bad! It smelled 🤢

[@high_fructose_corn_syrup]

I have a question.. my wife works for a veey small cleaning business. They have 2 clients that use coke. My wife has even came across some needles in one house. Always coke powder all over. Am I wrong to feel as tho she should speak up and say she doesn't feel comfortable cleaning these homes? Frankly it pissed me off.. putting my wife in a situation where she could get hurt. Be it a needle.. be it dusting and maybe breathing in drugs! Or whos to say a drug dealer couldnt show up and something could happen!!! All this being said, the houses are white collared but still is indeed they are druggy homes. Id like to tell her boss NO MORE but i dont know if i have that right or if my wife has that right without losing her job. Please opinions are appreciated ty

[@AleXcsGaming]

just because they use coke doesn't mean it's dangerous. many people use coke, and believe me, if they can afford coke and cleaning services, 100% no one will come and hurt herr

[@PhomoloKhan]

Your wife should be the one telling his/her employar that she's not comfortable cleaning that house and explaining why she's feelings that way.and she won't loose her job as a house cleaner ur safety and corncern she come first to your employer

[@Heseesyou]

Your safety and sanity are PRICELESS.. what would you tell your child to do if they were in that situation?? You get what you TOLERATE.

[@Ca31_Buff]

Mary Cahill multi surface cleaner. Something that can be used on multiple things. “Solution” is a commercial term for things

[@shelleyrightmyer6421]

Love you somuch miss

[@briabba123]

Why shouldn’t you use glass cleaner on a glass top table?

[@Ca31_Buff]

Can you give me a time stamp? I do not see it

[@briabba123]

ca31 14:12

[@Ca31_Buff]

briabba123 thats strange. If it’s glass, I use windex and a squeegee. Then a towel to dry the liquid at the end.

[@lisaw.williams1194]

briabba123 At the time stamp you provided, it doesn't say don't spray multi surface cleaner on the glass top table... It says never spray multi surface cleaner directly on the tv screen. I never heard them say don't spray directly on glass top table.

[@krysiunia]

Throughout the video they use multi-surface solution for glass and some other surfaces. That means the cleaner they use is just as good for glass, as a glass cleaner.

[@helenweatherby1694]

Why did she not remove the shelves from the oven? For goodness sake give the poor woman a swiffer and a floor mop. The job would be done in half the time.

[@shad6519]

How do you clean the dirty oven? Thanks

[@Ca31_Buff]

Hello Shadbanoo. If the oven has a “clean” function, use that. Don’t forget to remove pots, pans, and all of the shelves. This can cause dullness. If the oven doesn’t have the function, use “easy off”. You can get this at any department store and follow direction on the can.

[@TigerLilly05]

Putting the shower products on the toilet is gross. I own a cleaning company and our cleaners are trained to spray disinfectant on the toilet as a first step in a bathroom (so it sits on the surface long enough to actually work) . Next clean the shower. Then clean all shower products in the sink, dry and return to shower. Clean light above vanity, mirror then vanity top (and contents) then sink. Toilet cleaned top to bottom empty trash and vacuum and wash the floor. Lord this worry me

using of the bucket is wrong because always damping dirty cleaning cloth into the solution it spreading contamination issues.

I can't comprehend why folks don't clean their own homes. I can understand hiring a company to help with a deep clean, move in or out, etc. But EVERYONE should learn to tidy their own home🙄

[@Izsmelfie]

Careers. I worked for a nurse who put in long hours, and she just didn't have much extra time. She did TRY to do things to make it easier on me by picking up as she could, though, bless her. I loved working for her, as she was a sweetheart and very easy to work for.

[@RoundSeal]

Health issues, time issues, etc. I have severe depression and literally cannot keep up with the simplest of tasks sometimes. I'd feel so guilty hiring someone to help out when I really needed to because of being taught this as a kid -- I don't disagree with it, but people also need to learn that it's okay to ask for (or hire) help.

[@krysiunia]

Physical ailments, especially in old age

[@Wesleyclarillos]

It’s called having a life. My time is worth way more than cleaning my very large home, would rather take that time to do things I enjoy and have fun doing. I can afford it. So can others.

[@michelle20900]

Physical disabilities. I know ladies who have bad backs and cannot stretch or bend to clean. New mothers who need help. Air BnB and Vacation Rental cleanings. Airline pilot and flight attendant wife never home much. Not everyone hires maid services. Same thing could be said many many years ago when people sewed their own clothes and then clothing was in stores and somebody might have said, “I cannot understand why people don’t sew their clothes anymore”, or packaged foods, or going to the library for research and not having KZbin, etc.
