What should you look for when you're considering investing in a cleaning franchise? A well-known and established cleaning franchisor for starters. When you're researching cleaning service franchise opportunities, you want to find a franchisor with a proven track record, an established brand and a clear commitment to their franchisee's success. The best cleaning franchise opportunities will be the ones that offer proven methods, ongoing training and the support you'll need for effective marketing and other ways to build your business. 

The residential cleaning industry is growing and there are plenty of opportunities to take advantage of the industry's ongoing success. Housekeeping and maid franchise opportunities are available all across North America, with a range of well-established residential cleaning companies offering new territories and resales. Look for companies that specialize in residential cleaning and offer a unique selling proposition, like cleaning for health or green cleaning. By selecting a franchise that has a niche within the residential cleaning category, your startup and continuing success stand a better chance for success than a more generalized cleaning service.
