Handy Is The Queen Of Organization

The one thing I still have to figure out over and over again as an adult is that life can be pretty overwhelming. Sometimes you need to find help!

So when my two kids and my husband and I were all quarantined and working under one roof, all heck broke loose. The laundry pile and the dishes pile were in a race to the ceiling.

I really could’ve used a cleaning service, but obviously that wasn’t happening at the time.1

Just when I was getting desperate, a friend told me she loved Handyfor its ease of booking and the quality cleaners on the platform. I doubted a service could check every cleaner – turns out they take extensive measures to ensure both Pros and their customers are safe.

Handy background-checks every single Pro booked through their platform, so you have the peace of mind that they’ve vetted the Pros who come to your home. There’s also the Handy Safety Standard, which includes a number of steps to help foster a safe environment for the customers and cleaning professionals who use Handy. As part of these measures, Handy has provided face coverings to all professionals to wear during bookings and require professionals to complete a daily in-app checkup confirming that they are not experiencing symptoms before they can claim jobs.

As one of the most popular ways to book a cleaning service nationwide, I thought I’d take a look at some reviews, and was surprised by what I read.

“The Queen of Organization”

“Seriously amazing help! My house is utter chaos so she was super patient and did what she could with what I gave her. She is the queen of organization! She’s coming back next Wednesday and my husband is so thrilled as well and we plan on having her back often!” – Nicole R.

“I was so impressed”

“Catalina is the best cleaner. She is very professional, friendly…very thorough. The things on the handy list, she does. I was so impressed. Keep up the good work, you’re the best!!!!🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓💕” – Kaytrine H.

“I would have [my cleaner] again in a heartbeat!”

“Priscilla was not only flexible, but she was personable and extremely helpful! My house was super clean when she left, and I was speechless. She was easy to work with and was a delight to talk to. I would have her again in a heartbeat!” – Janey C. L.

“Made my messy apartment sparkle”

“Brian O. somehow managed to make my very messy apartment sparkle. I highly recommend him!” – Jennifer

“Totally made my week”

“Jessica was wonderful! On time, thorough, kind and just generally amazing. Totally made my week…working with Jessica S. was fantastic and I highly recommend her if you’re in the Dayton/Cincinnati area!” – Stacy H.

“A Miracle Worker”

“Paige is a miracle worker. She took my filthy house and turned it into a clean, tidy, beautiful home fit for a magazine cover. Paige has a true gift. She is also sweet as can be and a very, very hard worker. I highly recommend her.” – Angela D.

“A wonderful surprise”

“Works surprisingly well! What a wonderful surprise to discover a gig service broker for house cleaning, etc. The website is very easy, the choices are clear, and the cleaner Handy sent, Patti, was on time and efficient. I like the app—I can cancel, postpone, etc.” – Louise L.

“A hit!”

“Cleaning gift was a hit!! My son and daughter in law were very pleased with Marlon. He was so polite and worked so hard. He did an excellent job! I had booked the appointment as a gift and they were happy with and want to have another booking and they want Marlon to be their professional cleaner.” – Shelly P.

I knew it could be hit or miss, but I decided to take a leap. You’ll just have to stay tuned for my review! I’m signing up for a 6-month 1x a month service, but you can also do weekly or biweekly and 3-month or 12-month packages. You can also cut back or expand on your plan at any time, and sometimes you can even schedule a cleaning for as soon as the next day.

Handy can be a savior, so if you’re on the fence, you need to give it a try.
