Question 1

What exactly is included in your garage cleaning service?

Accepted Answer

Our services are outcome-based and tiered. Quick Clean includes staging items out of the garage as needed, trash and recycling bagging, sweeping, dust/debris cleanup, light categorization, and before/after photos. Smart Organize adds full floor wash and deodorizing, deeper cleaning of garage shelves/cabinets (garage only), and organized repopulation with bins and labels. Elite Makeover includes everything in Smart Organize plus expanded storage solutions, donation delivery, and a more comprehensive zone-based system.

Question 2

Do you offer both cleaning and organizing, or do you only clean surfaces after items are removed?

Accepted Answer

We offer both. Our process is designed to empty the garage enough to reset it properly, then rebuild it with logical zones and organized storage so it stays functional. Cleaning is not just surface-level; higher tiers include a full floor wash and deodorizing while the space is clear.

Question 3

Will you move heavy items (shelves, appliances, gym equipment), and are there any weight or safety limits?

Accepted Answer

We can move most common garage items and storage where it can be done safely. Extremely heavy items, anchored fixtures, or anything that creates a safety risk may require a separate assessment, an additional crew member, or may be declined. Safety and property protection come first.

Question 4

Do you handle disposal, recycling, and donations, and are there extra fees for those?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can coordinate disposal and haul-away, recycling, and donation drop-offs. Donation delivery and e-waste drop-off are available as add-ons. Junk removal and haul-away are priced separately based on volume and labor intensity.

Question 5

How do you determine pricing (by square footage, hourly rate, or flat project fee)?

Accepted Answer

We price primarily as a flat project fee based on garage size (car bays) and service tier, with adjustments for complexity and add-ons like extra bins, shelving/racks, donation delivery, e-waste, or haul-away.

Question 6

What is your price range for a typical two-car garage in Southern California?

Accepted Answer

For a typical two-car garage: Quick Clean is $499, Smart Organize is $899, and Elite Makeover is $1,499. Final pricing can change based on volume, complexity, storage needs, and add-ons such as haul-away, donation delivery, or additional bins and shelving.

Question 7

Does your estimate include disposal fees, floor washing, and any add-on organizing services?

Accepted Answer

Your estimate will clearly show what’s included in your selected tier and what is optional. Smart Organize and Elite Makeover include a full floor wash and deodorizing. Disposal/haul-away and specialty drop-offs (donation delivery, e-waste) are typically separate line items because they depend on volume.

Question 8

Can you provide a written estimate and scope of work before starting?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We provide written pricing and scope aligned to your selected service tier, garage size, and any add-ons, before work begins.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Yes. Clean Garage Crew is fully licensed, bonded, and insured.

Question 10

Can you provide proof of insurance and any relevant licenses upon request?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Proof of insurance and business credentials can be provided upon request.

Question 11

How do you screen and train your employees who will be working in my home and garage?

Accepted Answer

All team members are 100% background checked. Crews are uniformed, trained on our staging, sorting, cleaning, and zoning method, and coached on safe handling and respectful in-home service.

Question 12

Do you offer any satisfaction guarantee or policy if I am not happy with the job?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If you let us know within 48 hours, we will make it right. Elite Makeover includes a 30-day satisfaction guarantee with one free follow-up visit if needed.

Question 13

What cleaning methods do you use for garage floors, and how do you prevent damage to concrete or epoxy coatings?

Accepted Answer

We use methods appropriate to the surface and conditions, typically including sweeping, debris removal, targeted spot treatment, and a controlled floor wash and deodorizing for Smart Organize and Elite Makeover. We avoid aggressive methods that could damage epoxy or coatings and adjust approach based on drainage, surface condition, and client goals.

Question 14

What types of cleaning products do you use, and can you use low-odor or eco-friendly products if requested?

Accepted Answer

We use professional cleaning products appropriate for garage environments and can accommodate low-odor or eco-friendly product preferences when requested, as long as they are compatible with the surface and the job requirements.

Question 15

How do you handle oil stains, rust, mold, or tire marks on the floor and driveway?

Accepted Answer

We can treat common garage marks with appropriate cleaners and spot methods, but results vary by stain age and surface condition. We do not provide mold remediation or hazardous remediation services; if mold or contamination is suspected, we will recommend a specialist.

Question 16

Do you bring all equipment and supplies, or do I need to provide anything?

Accepted Answer

We bring the equipment and supplies needed for your selected tier. If we recommend specialized storage products (bins, shelving, racks), we will review options and pricing as part of your scope.

Question 17

How long do you expect the job to take, and how many people will be on the crew?

Accepted Answer

Most jobs are completed same-day. Quick Clean is typically 2–3 hours, Smart Organize 4–6 hours, and Elite Makeover commonly 6–10 hours depending on size and complexity. Typical crew size is 2–4 professionals depending on job size.

Question 18

Do I need to clear out any items in advance, or can your team help with sorting and moving things?

Accepted Answer

You do not need to pre-clear. We handle staging and help you sort using a simple decision process (keep, donate, haul-away, re-organize). If you have items you know you want to keep, setting them aside can speed up the process, but it is not required.

Question 19

What is your cancellation or rescheduling policy?

Accepted Answer

Policies can vary by project scope and scheduling window. Contact us as soon as possible if you need to reschedule so we can offer the slot to another client and confirm your next available date.

Question 20

What is the best way to contact you before and after the job if there are issues or I need changes?

Accepted Answer

The fastest way is by phone or text. You can also email us for documentation, scope questions, or follow-up support.

Question 21

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can share examples of recent projects and, when available, references or reviews relevant to your garage size and service tier.

Question 23

Do you have before-and-after photos of garage cleanings and organization projects?

Not necessarily. Many clients leave during the cleanout and return to a transformed space. We just need initial access and any specific instructions. If decisions are needed on keep vs donate vs haul-away, we will coordinate those with you.
