A trusted household name and a clean you can count on.

Founded in 1984, Molly Maid® has grown into the premier residential cleaning service franchise. We build close relationships with customers who trust Molly Maid to come into their homes on a regular basis. Our customers include:

  • Busy parents and empty nesters who prioritize family time. For them, paying for home services is worth it because it saves them time that they can use to do things they enjoy

  • Businesses like offices, schools, churches, and organizations that don't have the resources or desire to hire their own cleaning crews.

Our franchise owners are empowered to take charge of their lives and create lifestyles they deserve.

We've spent over four decades optimizing our system to equip our franchise owners with the best tools, technology, and resources in the industry. This foundation allows franchise owners even with no industry experience to confidently grow their business and to secure a comfortable lifestyle for themselves and their families.
