cleaning service question

Hi All! I'm hiring a woman to clean my house for the first time... I'm a military spouse, so I'm living in an area where I don't know many people and have had no luck getting a first hand reference.  So tomorrow I'm having a woman come that was recommended by a woman who cleans the house of someone I know.  So, I don't know this woman at all.  I'm going to ask her to bring some references, but is there anything else I should be asking for?  I thought to ask to make a photocopy of her drivers license so I at least have some basic information on her.  Anything else I should ask her tomorrow when I meet her at my house tomorrow?  Thanks!

Re: cleaning service question

  • This isn't necessarily anything to ask her, but have you looked at Angies List? There may be reviews on their site for her and/or other companies that will give you an idea of a good price, quality, etc.
  • Is she insured and bonded?  If so ask for copies.  If she is not check in with your insurance before proceeding.  YOU may not be covered if you choose to hire such a person and something happens.
