Study: Healthy Midlife Habits Lead to Successful Senior Health

Cleaning up the house is a major chore for people of all ages. However, it can be especially hard when you get older. Seniors often face existing ailments and limited mobility that prevent them from giving their home a necessary and thorough cleaning. Plus, the act of cleaning could even increase their risk of falling or injuring themselves by mistake.

Molly Maid

One of the most recognizable cleaning service brands is Molly Maid. The company has over 450 individually owned franchises. Even more outstanding, it performed over 1.7 million cleaning services in one year. 90 percent of those cleaning sessions were from repeat customers.

You can buy a one-time cleaning session or invest in regular service that’s convenient for your schedule and lifestyle. In addition to cleaning services, Molly Maid can recommend reliable service providers in your area to help with plumping, repairs, and other home improvement tasks that might be difficult for seniors to do themselves.

The Cleaning Authority

Some cleaning services use harsh chemical products that damage the environment. Well, The Cleaning Authority isn’t one of them. This company uses environmentally responsible and sustainable products. As such, the company’s 20 million cleans and counting don’t pose any ethical dilemma.

If you choose repeat service, your cleaners will implement a rotating service that includes more cleaning in addition to the standard list. They’ll divide their time between the bathrooms, living and sleeping areas, and kitchen. They will scrub places in your home that you might have forgotten even need to be cleaned.
