Time is our most valuable commodity. Between work, family, and regular living, finding the energy for cleaning your home doesn’t always come easy. At Merry Maids®, we believe a clean home shouldn’t be complicated. For over four decades, we've focused on delivering an exceptional cleaning experience designed to give you back your time.
The Merry Maids difference: trust, experience, and quality
Our commitment to excellence began in Omaha, Nebraska, in 1979 when Dallen Peterson and his family started the company. Their mission was to deliver exceptional service and quality to customers. They eventually grew the business into a trusted brand, allowing us to grow into the largest home cleaning franchise network in North America. After being acquired by ServiceMaster in 1988, we joined them in forming our core values: Do what's right, take care of each other, think like an owner, bring out the best in others, act with agility, and play to win.
Local roots, national support
While we have the backing of a national brand, every Merry Maids operation is made up of independently owned and operated franchises. This model means that when you hire us, you’re supporting a local business that is directly invested in your community. Your local Merry Maids owner and team members are your neighbors, committed to upholding the highest standards of service while contributing to the life and economy of your town. This combination of local care and national-level training brings you a high-quality clean you can trust.
Currently, Merry Maids has over 400 locations throughout the United States. Many franchise owners have included their children in their businesses and it has truly become a generational legacy. This history and pride in doing business means that every Merry Maids service is bringing a trusted company to your door.
