Question 1

How much does house cleaning cost in Myrtle Beach?

Accepted Answer

House cleaning costs in Myrtle Beach vary based on the size and condition of your home and the type of cleaning you choose. A2Z Cleaning & Linen Services prices each home individually rather than using a flat rate. Recurring house cleaning typically costs less per visit than a one-time deep clean, and the first cleaning is usually higher. We provide a free, no-obligation quote with upfront pricing before your cleaning begins — no surprises.

Question 2

Do I need to provide cleaning supplies, or do you bring your own?

Accepted Answer

No. A2Z provides all professional cleaning supplies and equipment needed for your house cleaning. If you prefer specific products because of allergies, sensitive surfaces, pets, or personal preference, just let us know. We're happy to use products you provide when appropriate.

Question 3

How can I customize my house cleaning or request specific tasks?

Accepted Answer

A2Z offers several cleaning options so you can choose the service that best fits your home and priorities. When you book, let us know about any specific areas of concern or additional tasks, such as baseboards, blinds, inside the refrigerator, or particular rooms. Some requests may require additional time or can be added as an extra service. For recurring house cleaning, we follow your selected service and keep detailed notes about your home and preferences.

Question 4

Are your cleaning professionals trained to perform deep cleaning services?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A2Z cleaning professionals are professionally trained to perform detailed deep cleaning services. Our Deluxe Deep Cleaning goes beyond routine house cleaning with detailed attention to built-up dirt and often-overlooked areas, including hand-washing baseboards, doors and door frames, along with detailed cleaning of kitchens and bathrooms.

Question 5

What is the difference between a regular recurring cleaning and a deep cleaning?

Accepted Answer

A deep cleaning is a more detailed service designed to tackle built-up dirt and areas that aren't typically addressed during routine cleaning. A2Z's deep cleaning includes extra detail work such as hand-washing baseboards, doors and door frames, along with detailed attention to kitchens and bathrooms. Recurring cleaning focuses on consistently maintaining your home on a weekly, biweekly, or monthly schedule.

Question 6

Are your Myrtle Beach house cleaners background-checked and insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every A2Z cleaning professional is nationally background-screened and professionally trained before entering a client's home, and A2Z Cleaning & Linen Services is fully insured. We have a selective hiring process and only hire a small percentage of applicants who meet our standards.

Question 7

How can I get a house cleaning quote in Myrtle Beach?

Accepted Answer

Getting a free house cleaning quote from A2Z is easy. Fill out the Request a Quote form on this page or call 843.800.2788. We'll ask a few questions about your home, including its size, condition, and the type of cleaning you're looking for, then provide upfront pricing with no obligation.

Question 8

Do I need to be home during my house cleaning?

Accepted Answer

No. You do not need to be home while A2Z cleans your home, and many of our clients aren't. You can provide secure entry instructions before your cleaning. Three days before your cleaning, you'll receive your morning or afternoon arrival window; the day before, we'll narrow that to a one-hour window; and on cleaning day, you'll receive a text when your team is on the way.

Question 9

How long does a deep house cleaning take?

Accepted Answer

The time needed for a deep house cleaning depends on the size and condition of your home, the amount of buildup, and any additional services requested. A2Z estimates the cleaning time for your specific home when you book so we can schedule the appropriate amount of time and set clear expectations.

Question 10

How often should I schedule recurring house cleaning?

Accepted Answer

For most homes, professional house cleaning every two weeks is a great balance. Weekly cleaning is often best for busy households, larger homes, families with pets, or homes that need more frequent attention. Monthly cleaning can work well for lighter-use homes. A2Z offers weekly, biweekly, and monthly recurring cleaning.

Question 11

Are your house cleaning services pet-friendly?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A2Z is a pet-friendly house cleaning service, and our cleaning professionals regularly work in homes with dogs, cats, and other household pets. Just tell us about your pets when you book and we'll add those details to your home's notes.

Question 12

What areas of the Grand Strand do you serve?

Accepted Answer

A2Z Cleaning & Linen Services serves Myrtle Beach, North Myrtle Beach, Conway, Surfside Beach, Garden City, Murrells Inlet, Pawleys Island, Little River, Carolina Forest and Socastee, along with the surrounding Horry and Georgetown County communities.

Question 13

What is your 24-hour reclean guarantee?

Accepted Answer

If something was missed during your cleaning, let us know within 24 hours and we will return to re-clean the affected areas at no additional charge.

Question 14

How do I pay for my cleaning?

Accepted Answer

Payment is handled securely through our client system. You will receive a confirmation after your cleaning is complete, and recurring clients are billed automatically after each visit.

Question 15

What is your cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

We ask for advance notice if you need to reschedule or cancel so we can offer the time slot to another client and keep your team's schedule full. Contact our office and we will find a new time that works for you.

Question 16

How fast can you turn over an Airbnb or vacation rental between guests?

Accepted Answer

We schedule every turnover around your same-day check-out and check-in window. Most Grand Strand condos and homes are cleaned, laundered, restocked, and staged inside the standard 10 AM to 4 PM gap. Back-to-back bookings and late check-outs are flagged in advance so we can add a second cleaner instead of missing your arrival time.

Question 17

Do you wash the linens and towels, or do I need a linen service?

Accepted Answer

Standard turnovers include washing, drying, and hotel-folding your on-site linens and towels with hotel-style bed resets. If you would rather never run a load again, we can pair your turnovers with our linen rental program so fresh sets are delivered and soiled sets are picked up at each turn.

Question 18

How do I know the clean was actually completed?

Accepted Answer

Every turnover ends with photo verification. Your team documents each room after staging, and the report is delivered with the completed job so you can confirm the property matches your listing photos before the guest arrives.

Question 19

What happens if a guest damages something or an item goes missing?

Accepted Answer

Our DamageShield process follows checkout, clean, inspect, photograph, report, and escalate. Damage, missing items, and maintenance issues are photographed and reported the same day so you can file with the platform while the evidence is fresh.

Question 20

Do you restock consumables like paper products and soap?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We restock the consumables you keep on site — paper products, soap, dish and laundry supplies, coffee — and track inventory so you know what to reorder before you run out.

Question 21

Do you work with property managers and co-hosts?

Accepted Answer

Regularly. We support single-owner listings as well as managed portfolios across Myrtle Beach and the Grand Strand, with calendar-based scheduling and a single point of contact for all of your units.

Question 22

How is premium turnover cleaning different from your standard turnover?

Accepted Answer

Premium adds white-glove detailing, hotel-style scheduling, amenity restocking, linen replacement instead of on-site laundry, and guest satisfaction follow-up. It is designed for luxury listings where a single missed detail costs you a five-star review.

Question 23

Which properties are a good fit for the premium program?

Accepted Answer

Oceanfront and luxury homes, high-ADR listings, and portfolios that market a boutique-hotel experience. If your nightly rate depends on presentation, premium is the right tier.

Question 24

Do you provide the linens on the premium plan?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Premium includes fresh hotel-quality linen sets delivered for each stay and soiled sets removed, so nothing is laundered on site and your linens stay crisp and stain-free.

Question 25

Can you handle guest amenities and welcome setups?

Accepted Answer

We stage amenities, welcome items, and consumables to your specification and photograph the finished setup so you can see exactly what the guest walks into.

Question 26

Is there a minimum number of turnovers per month?

Accepted Answer

No fixed minimum, but premium works best for properties with consistent bookings. We build your schedule from your calendar and confirm availability during peak Grand Strand season in advance.

Question 27

Can you supplement our in-house housekeeping team during peak season?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Supplemental room attendants and peak-season support are core to what we do. We can cover call-outs, weekend surges, and summer volume without you carrying the headcount year-round.

Question 28

How quickly can you staff a property?

Accepted Answer

For most Grand Strand properties we can staff within days for planned coverage and faster for emergencies. Volume, room count, and shift windows determine the crew size we assign.

Question 29

Are your attendants trained on hospitality standards?

Accepted Answer

Every attendant is background-screened and trained on hotel-standard room turns, linen handling, and inspection checklists before they work a property.

Question 30

Do you handle public areas and laundry as well as guest rooms?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Guest rooms, corridors, lobbies, fitness and pool areas, and back-of-house laundry support can all be included in your scope.

Question 31

How is hotel and resort work priced?

Accepted Answer

Pricing is built per property based on room count, turn volume, scope, and hours. We quote after a walkthrough so the rate reflects your actual standards, not a generic per-room average.

Question 32

What does a local contact actually do for my rental?

Accepted Answer

We act as your on-the-ground representative: guest communication, key and lock-code service, arrival instructions, and on-site response when something needs a person at the property.

Question 33

Do I need a local contact if I live out of state?

Accepted Answer

Most out-of-state owners do. Having a nearby representative protects your guest experience, speeds up issue resolution, and gives HOAs and building management a real person to call.

Question 34

How fast do you respond to a guest issue?

Accepted Answer

Guest-facing issues are triaged immediately during service hours and escalated to you with photos and a recommended fix so you are never guessing what happened.

Question 35

Is DamageShield included with local contact service?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Checkout, clean, inspect, photograph, report, escalate — the same documented process runs on your property so damage and missing items are captured with evidence.

Question 36

Can local contact be added to my cleaning plan?

Accepted Answer

It is designed to bundle. Most owners pair local contact with turnover cleaning and maintenance so one partner covers the whole property.

Question 37

What does the $89/month maintenance plan include?

Accepted Answer

Routine preventative maintenance visits, minor handyman fixes, and photo-documented condition reporting so small issues get caught before a guest finds them. Larger repairs are quoted separately before any work begins.

Question 38

What kinds of repairs can your team handle?

Accepted Answer

Common vacation-rental repairs: fixtures, hardware, drywall touch-ups, filters, batteries, blinds, minor plumbing and electrical items, and furniture assembly. Anything requiring a licensed specialty trade is coordinated for you.

Question 39

How do I know work was completed?

Accepted Answer

Every visit produces a photo report showing the issue and the fix, delivered to you the same day.

Question 40

Can you handle emergency repairs during a guest stay?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Mid-stay issues get priority so your guest's experience — and your review — are protected.

Question 41

Do I have to use your cleaning service to get maintenance?

Accepted Answer

No, but owners who bundle turnovers with maintenance get faster response because our team is already at the property on a regular schedule.

Question 42

How does linen rental work?

Accepted Answer

We deliver fresh hotel-quality sheets, towels, and beach towels before the stay and pick up the soiled sets after. No on-site laundry, no worn-out linens, no guest complaints about towels.

Question 43

Can I rent by the bed instead of a full property package?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can order by the bed, choose a flat-rate property package sized to your bedroom count, or buy item by item in the linen store.

Question 44

How many linen sets can I order per package?

Accepted Answer

Flat-rate property packages support up to 12 sets, which covers nearly every condo and beach home on the Grand Strand.

Question 45

What happens if linens are stained or missing after a guest?

Accepted Answer

Normal wear is on us. Missing or badly damaged items are documented in your report and billed per the linen policy you sign before your first order.

Question 46

Who uses your linen program besides STR hosts?

Accepted Answer

Property managers, realtors staging homes, and vacationers who want hotel-quality linens for a stay all order from us across Myrtle Beach and the Grand Strand.

Question 47

How is laundry priced?

Accepted Answer

Customer-owned linens are billed by the pound on a sliding scale: $1.75/lb under 100 lbs., $1.60/lb for 100–249 lbs., $1.50/lb for 250–499 lbs., $1.40/lb for 500–999 lbs., and custom volume pricing at 1,000+ lbs. per week.

Question 48

Do you pick up and deliver on the Grand Strand?

Accepted Answer

Yes. One flat fee covers pickup and return delivery, from $25 in Myrtle Beach, Market Common, Socastee and Carolina Forest up to $55 in Pawleys Island. Scheduled route pickup and return delivery is free on qualifying $250+ laundry orders when your location sits on an established A2Z route.

Question 49

Are comforters and bulky bedding included in the per-pound rate?

Accepted Answer

No. Comforters, quilts, duvet inserts, mattress pads, blankets and pillows are priced per item because of the extra washer capacity, drying time and handling they need — for example $25 for a queen comforter and $30 for a king.

Question 50

Can you keep each property's linens separated?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Property-separated, labeled bagging is $5 per property so your cleaners can grab the right sets without sorting.

Question 51

Do you offer rush or same-day turnaround?

Accepted Answer

Rush processing is +$0.35/lb. and same-day is +$0.50/lb., subject to route availability during peak season.

Question 52

Who uses your laundry service?

Accepted Answer

Property management companies, cleaning companies and independent cleaners, vacation rental owners, Airbnb and VRBO hosts, homeowners with their own linens, hotels, resorts, condos and commercial hospitality accounts.

Question 53

Do you handle oceanfront condo buildings with security or key access?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We coordinate building access, security check-in, elevator scheduling, and parking limits as part of the job — it is routine for Grand Strand high-rises.

Question 54

Do you clean balconies and sliding doors?

Accepted Answer

Balcony resets, railings, sliders, and tracks are included. Coastal salt spray and sand get special attention because they are the first thing a guest notices.

Question 55

Can you clean between rental guests as well as for owners?

Accepted Answer

Both. We run turnover cleaning for rented condos and recurring or seasonal cleaning for owner-occupied units.

Question 56

What if my condo sits empty for months?

Accepted Answer

We offer refresh cleans before your arrival and periodic check-ins during the off-season so you never walk into a musty, dusty unit.

Question 57

How is condo cleaning priced?

Accepted Answer

By size, condition, and cleaning type rather than a flat per-unit rate. We quote your unit specifically, with upfront pricing before we start.

Question 58

How often should I schedule recurring house cleaning?

Accepted Answer

Biweekly is the best balance for most Grand Strand homes. Weekly suits busy households, larger homes, and homes with pets. Monthly works for lighter-use properties.

Question 59

Will I have the same cleaning team each visit?

Accepted Answer

We assign familiar faces to your home and keep detailed notes on your preferences, with trained backup available so your schedule never gets skipped.

Question 60

Do I need to be home for recurring cleanings?

Accepted Answer

No. Most recurring clients are not home. You provide secure entry instructions once, and you get an arrival window plus a text when the team is on the way.

Question 61

Is the first cleaning different from the ongoing visits?

Accepted Answer

Usually yes. The first visit typically takes longer and costs more because we are resetting the home; ongoing visits maintain that standard at a lower per-visit rate.

Question 62

Can I skip or reschedule a visit?

Accepted Answer

Yes — just give us advance notice so we can offer the slot to another client and find you a new time that works.

Question 63

What is included in a Reset Clean that is not in a regular cleaning?

Accepted Answer

Hand-washed baseboards, doors and door frames, detailed kitchen and bathroom scrubbing, buildup removal, and hand-detailing of often-overlooked areas throughout the property.

Question 64

How long does a deep clean take?

Accepted Answer

It depends on size, condition, and how much buildup there is. We estimate your specific home when you book so the crew is scheduled with enough time to finish properly.
