Join Long Island's Premier Cleaning Team
We're looking for experienced professional cleaners who take pride in their work. If you're reliable, detail-oriented, and ready for great clients, we want to hear from you.
Work With the Best
Since 2013, Long Island Maids has built a reputation for excellence across Nassau County, Suffolk County, and the Hamptons. Our clients are the kind you want—respectful homeowners who value quality and treat cleaners like professionals.
We're not a franchise or a startup. We're a local company that's been doing this for over a decade, and we've figured out what works. You bring the skills; we bring the clients, the scheduling, and the support.
Important: We hire experienced professionals only. If you're new to cleaning or looking for training, this isn't the right fit. But if you already know what you're doing and want better clients and more flexibility, keep reading.

I've worked with other cleaning companies before, but Long Island Maids is different. The clients are respectful, the pay is fair, and Shannon actually cares about his team. I've been here three years and I'm not going anywhere.

Questions?
Common Questions
Is this a W-2 employee position or 1099 contractor?
Our cleaners work as independent contractors (1099). This gives you flexibility in scheduling and the ability to take on as much or as little work as you want. You're responsible for your own taxes and don't receive employee benefits like health insurance.
How much can I expect to earn?
Earnings depend on your availability and the jobs you take. Our pay rates are competitive for the Long Island market and reflect the quality of work we expect. We'll discuss specific rates during the interview process.
Do I need to bring my own supplies and equipment?
Yes, as an independent contractor, you're expected to have your own professional cleaning supplies and equipment. This is standard in the industry and gives you control over the products you use.
What areas do you service?
We serve Nassau County, Suffolk County, and the East End including the Hamptons. The more areas you're willing to work in, the more opportunities you'll have.
How quickly will I start getting jobs?
After you're approved, job availability depends on your availability and location. Cleaners who are flexible with their schedule and willing to travel tend to get more consistent work.
