Career path

How to become a house cleaner in United States

In the US, no license is required to clean houses in most states. However, operating as a business typically requires a general business license from your city or county. General liability insurance is strongly recommended — most professional cleaners carry $1–2 million in coverage. If you hire employees, you'll also need workers' compensation insurance and an EIN from the IRS.

The cleaning industry is highly fragmented — dominated by small businesses and independent operators. This creates opportunity for professionals who market themselves well and deliver consistent quality. The median wage for maids and housekeeping cleaners is about $30,200/year for employees, but independent cleaners charging $30–$50/hour and working full-time can earn $50,000–$80,000+.
