It’s TOTALLY your choice. Most of our customers provide us with a key because most are not home when we clean. Others leave us a key in a safe place each visit. For those who don’t provide us with a key, you will need to leave your leasing office permission for Totally Tidy Maid Service to be released a key to clean your home. *Due to extended wait times for keys, some customers will be charged an additional $5 fee if housekeepers need to gain access through their lobby*

Your key is secured in a locked key storage device to which only the Totally Tidy supervisors have access. The key is issued to the team leader on the day of the cleaning and then returned back to the supervisor to get stored back in the lock box.

In order to provide you with the best service, we ask that you always pick up & put away any items such as shoes, clothing/laundry, toys, rugs, and other misc items prior to us arriving.
