You're a nice,Cleaning Services Aren't Just For Families Anymore  Articles single guy with your own car, your own teeth and you haven't been arrested since College but every time you bring a woman home she thinks you've been robbed and your house has been trashed or she thinks you're interviewing her for the job of maid and not in a cute way. It's time you hired a cleaning service or give up your dating time to find your couch under the pile of clothes and leftover pizza boxes.

Deciding you need a cleaning service and knowing how to find a cleaning service however are clearly not where your skills lay so you need a plan. First the basics- you need to find a source of reliable information that will screen out the cleaning services that make your living room look like they have already been there and you need to find a way to get the potential cleaning services screened out so you don't waste too much time looking.

Find a consumer based web site like Angie's List that will give consumer reviews of local business. This eliminates the need for you to try and screen out businesses because it has just been done for you. All you have to do is find the top four or so cleaning services who have been rated with A's and read some reviews. After you pick the top few you want to interview you can set up a day to do some quick interviews and pick the lucky business that you will hire.

Have a list of interview questions prepared to find out the basics like what the company will charge to come in once a week or more if you need it and what services are provided. Some companies will charge extra to do windows, wash dishes or do laundry and some companies won't even tackle these jobs so make sure you know what services you need done and what services you can do without.

Finally you will have to let the potential cleaners see your living room and yes you can lie and say it never looks like this but after a few weeks of cleaning up after you they will probably figure it out. In the meantime make sure to schedule your dates around your cleaning service and it's just possible you may be able to fool some lucky lady into thinking you are a "neat" guy.
