I'm starting my own small cleaning business, just me at first. I'm trying to come up with some good names to choose from. I don't want to use my initials or name, I think that's boring. Well here are some so far, let me know what you think.
  • Pleased to Clean
  • Clean to Please (instead of aim to please)
  • Clean Scene
  • Clean N Gleam
That's it so far. At first I really liked 'Pleased to Clean' kind of like "I'm pleased to clean your home". What about the slogan 'Cleaning Up the Mess for Less'? Thank you in advance.

Hi, I used to have a cleaning business and our name was Dustbusters. We used a little tornado as our logo with specks of dirt or dust flying around. It was really cute. I have noticed now in town that there is another business called Dirtbusters. That is cute too. Good luck with your business. It is a great business. Good money if you are willing to work hard and be better than your competitors.

I need some help on deciding a good name for a small cleaning business I am planning on starting. Let me know what you think. I have checked these for trademarks and they seem to be okay so far. I just need help deciding what to go with.

April Fresh Cleaning Service;
April's Fresh Cleaning Service;
April's Cleaning Service;
April's Cleaning Company;

I thought it would be good to keep my first name at the beginning for alphabetized advertising purposes, ie. phone book and such... or should I leave out my name and go with one of these?

Reflections Cleaning Company;
Perfectionism;
Deep Clean Cleaning Service;
Perfect Clean;
Perfectly Clean;
Sparkling Clean;
Thorough Clean;
Thoroughly Cleaned Cleaning Service;
Extreme Clean;
Xtreme Clean;
Amped Cleaning Service;
Spiffy Clean;

Thank you!
April from Indianapolis, IN

RE: Name Ideas for a Cleaning Business

  • April Fresh Cleaning Service;
  • April's Fresh Cleaning Service;

    These are my two favorites of those you have listed. I am leaning toward April Fresh Cleaning Service as it is a pun or play on words. Perhaps you can think of a logo that indicates April Fresh.

    Best of luck to a smart woman who realizes that its often all in the name. (04/16/2008)

    By Carol in PA

    RE: Name Ideas for a Cleaning Business

    My favorite is also "April Fresh Cleaning Service." It just sounds good and appealing, and also is cute, since you're including your name! Good luck! (04/16/2008)

    By Linda in Alabama

    RE: Name Ideas for a Cleaning Business

    I would avoid the two names that have "April Fresh" as part of the name. That is the name of a brand of douche that our drug store sells. If that is sold in your area, that could invite crank phone calls or vandalism on your vehicle if it has a sign on the side (kids and pranks...)

    I kind of notice that because my first name is also April. (04/16/2008)

    RE: Name Ideas for a Cleaning Business

    how about "Dirt B Gone" "We Mean To Clean" "White Glove Cleaning" and I think if you can have some type art work to match your name you pick would catch peoples eye on your car or your business cards. for instance have a white glove painted in between the words white and the word glove. A few helpful suggestions to save money on advertising would be to go to your local shops in your town that sell magnetic car signs. You can order then however you want in sizes you prefer and just place them on your drivers door of your vehicle they only cost about $50 or less. Those places are available on the web too for buying them. Also on your business cards.Simply make your own if your just starting out by using hard stock paper, and an art program cd bought at any walmart for $10 or less. by using the cd you can create business cards, fliers to hand out,etc. you can choose your own fonts add pictures or clip art to match your business name. and that way you only make 50 or less cards until you see if you need more. those same business that sell the magnetic signs also sell you your own custom designed window decals you could advertise with. This site here will print almost any size you like. I always buy my car window decals here, some are quite large and pretty too. Its called stickergirl.com (11/02/2007)

    I'm starting a home cleaning business does anyone think the name Family Trends home cleaners is good? My slogan is "caring for your home". Jamie from Sturtevant, WI

    RE: Name Ideas for a Cleaning Business

    I used to have a cleaning business and I named it Little Piggies. Let me tell you, that name was such a hit! People used to call all the time saying that they chose us because of the name and that their homes were pig sties. I had cute t-shirts made up that showed 3 pigs each holding a duster, one with a vacuum, etc. That name became famous in town. I had envisioned that someday we would would all drive little pink VW Bugs with curly tails in the back and little ears on the roof. (04/10/2007)

    By Rhonda

    starting a cleaning business

    What sort of licenses do I need and how do I obtain them? If someone else has a business license for a cleaning business, she used to have. If she were to just say she ran the company would that be legal? Can you just use the same license again? If I kept the same name? I have a lot of questions. If someone could give me a website that has the information that would be wonderful. Please help I am 16 and have been on my own for about a year now. I used to work at a cleaning company but it was to far to commute. I like that type of work a lot, I have to keep busy. I am in the middle of getting emancipated which is why i really need to details about this type of license. because I am really excited about this opportunity and need to jump on it now. Me and boyfriend are ready to get our life started together, to ensure a bright future.

    I may be young but I know what i want from life and when I start something I finish it. GO BIG OR GO HOME. so please any info would be a help. (07/28/2007)

    By Ashley

    RE: Name Ideas for a Cleaning Business

    Ashley, Look up "Starting a business in ____" put in the blank, you state of residence. Different states have different business requirements. You may or may not need a business license in your state. You may also need bonding or insurance so if you cause any damage to someone's home, you are covered.

    It's hard for anyone to know whether an existing license would work for you or not because each states laws are different. Because you are under 18, it might be a good idea to have someone else own the business until you are old enough.

    The important thing is to start planning what you will need (tools, equipment, supplies) and start keeping track of everything that you spend on getting the business started. We have a good link here for starting a small business, http://www.thriftyfun.com/search.ldml?qry=small+business&act=Search

    Although the topics of some of the links will not be for your type of business, you may get ideas of what you will need.

    Good luck. I admire your drive to get started on life. Susan from ThriftyFun (07/28/2007)

    One thing to keep in mind on choosing a name, your place in the yellow pages! Make it catchy, and on your business card, try to have a "slogan".

    I was watching Oprah and the lady that came up with Spanks told the crowd that the reason she picked this name is that it had a strong "K" sound. Just like Coca Cola she used the "K" sound in her name. You may like to consider "Klean Klub" or " Klean 4 U". This lady researched and found businesses were more likely to be remember for that strong "K" sound. All the best, (03/28/2007)

    RE: Name Ideas for a Cleaning Business 03/16/2006
    I think I'd leave off the initials "T" and "S" and just go with Sparkling Cleaning Service. I do think it would help customers if you added another word that might indicate the type of cleaning you do. Like Sparkling Clean Home. (You didn't say whether you did homes or businesses or both. Frankly, for all I know you may clean cars. lol) There's something about using the words "sparkling" and "cleaning" in the same sentence that doesnt seem right. Hopefully I've given enough for you to think about that you'll come up with your own name.
    By Carol (Guest Post)
    RE: Name Ideas for a Cleaning Business 03/18/2006
    Just make sure the name you pick has not been trademarked. Be sure to trademark the name you pick so no one else can use it. If your name is not trademarked, someone can use it and you could end up paying them royalties.
    By WIsgal
    RE: Name Ideas for a Cleaning Business 03/22/2006
    I would drop the initials and use A or AA Sparkling Clean (Home or Business) Service, that way you would be listed first in the yellow pages and people will know what kind of cleaning you will do.

    Hi Ralph, Good luck with your new business. Have you thought about incorporating your name into the name of the biz? I do believe that licensing fees and such are less if you do so. I have some books on starting up a business like that since it was a thought at one time. Maybe check into that.
