⭐ PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT FOR LOCAL HOME & BUSINESS OWNERS!!⭐️
Before hiring ANY cleaning service in Iowa even if the price looks amazing, you have the right to verify that the company is legitimate and operating legally.
Here’s how to protect yourself:
🔎 1. Check if the business is officially registered in Iowa
You can look up any business on the Iowa Secretary of State’s Entity Search.
If the business doesn’t appear, or shows as inactive, they are not a legally recognized company and should not be operating as one. Link below.

📝 2. Ask for proof of insurance — every client has this right
A legitimate cleaning company should be able to provide:
• Commercial general liability insurance
• Proof of coverage with their company name on it
This protects you as the homeowner/business owner if anything goes wrong.
💡 3. Remember: extremely cheap pricing is often a red flag
When someone’s price is far below the industry standard, it usually means corners are being cut somewhere — whether that’s:
• Lack of insurance
• No business registration
• No employee protections
• No accountability
Professional companies charge professional rates because they’re insured, trained, and compliant with Iowa law.
🧼 4. Support legitimate businesses in our community
Choosing a properly registered and insured company helps protect:
• Your home or commercial space
• The workers doing the job
• The integrity of local small businesses who operate legally and ethically
As always, Ms Mops LLC is fully registered, insured, and compliant, and we’re happy to provide a Certificate of Insurance or verification documents upon request.
If any homeowner or business needs help understanding how to verify a company, I’m always happy to walk you through it.
Knowledge protects people — and our community deserves that.
