Now hiring across Chicago
You already know how to clean. You just need better work.
Maid Bea connects Chicago-area real estate clients with Independent Cleaning Professionals. You pick the jobs, you set the schedule, and we handle the clients, the booking system and the paperwork behind it.
The short version
One job a week is the only minimum.
No cap on how much you make.
Paid twice a month, on the 7th and the 21st.
No cash to collect, ever.
1099 independent. You run your own business.
Picture your week, on your terms.
Most cleaning work asks you to give up control of your time. We do not.
The schedule someone else wrote
Somebody hands you a route across the city and calls it your day.
Chasing people for money
The work is finished and you are still waiting to get paid for it.
Cleaning around an audience
Working in an occupied home while the family watches every move you make.
Nobody says what finished means
The standard shifts depending on who happens to be inspecting that day.
If you nodded at even one of those, keep reading.
What you actually get
No vague promises. This is the arrangement.
Work when you want
Open bookings post to our Team Job Board. Take what fits your week and skip what does not. Nobody hands you a route.
Low minimum, no ceiling
One booking a week keeps you active. Past that there is no cap. Take on as much as you can responsibly handle.
You see the pay first
Every job posts with the address, the type of clean, what it pays, and you decide from there. No bidding, no guessing, and no renegotiating after the work is done.
Paid twice a month
Payments land on the 7th and the 21st, straight to your account, once your bookings are verified complete.
Real support behind you
Our team is reachable on WhatsApp throughout the day. When a property has a problem, you are not standing there alone working it out.
Serving professionals
You serve real estate agents, investors and property managers who understand professional standards and book again.
This is not house cleaning
Most of our work is empty property. Turnovers between tenants, move-outs before a listing goes live, post-construction cleanup, and getting a home ready for photos. Clear scopes, nobody hovering while you work, and expectations written down instead of improvised. We hold to The Bea Standard of Clean and stand behind it with our 48-Hour Re-Clean Guarantee, so you always know what finished looks like.
“Clean is not just what people see. It is how the space feels when you leave.”

A few quick answers
Am I an employee?
No. You work as an Independent Cleaning Professional on a 1099 basis. You report your own earnings, handle your own taxes, and run your own business. Maid Bea does not withhold payroll taxes or provide employee benefits.
How many jobs do I have to take?
One booking a week keeps your account active. There is no maximum. Take on as much as you can responsibly handle, and skip the weeks that do not work for you.
Do I have to accept every booking?
No. You accept the bookings that fit your schedule and your location. Once you accept one we expect you to complete it, because a client is counting on it.
How much does a job pay?
It depends on the job, and you will always know before you take it. Each posting carries a flat rate for that specific clean, so you can weigh the drive, the scope, and the pay against each other before you commit.
How and when do I get paid?
Clients pay electronically through our system, so you never handle cash or checks. We release your payment on the 7th for work completed between the 16th and the end of the previous month, and on the 21st for work completed between the 1st and the 15th.
What area do you serve?
Properties across the Chicagoland area.
Ready when you are
You bring the standard.
We bring the work.
The application takes a few minutes and includes the full Independent Cleaning Professional Terms, so nothing is a surprise later.
