A lot of people aren't sure what a professional cleaner actually does — and that's completely fair if you've never booked one before.

Every Keepsake visit covers your floors, surfaces, kitchens, and bathrooms. A deep clean goes further into appliances, cabinet interiors, grout, and the spots that tend to build up quietly over time.

A few things we don't cover: dishes, laundry, and organizing. We focus on cleaning your home itself — the surfaces, fixtures, and floors that make the biggest difference when they're done right.

And the tidier your space is when we arrive, the more attention we can give to the areas that actually need cleaning.

Moving soon? The best time to declutter is before you pack — not after you've moved everything into your new home.

Swipe for a room-by-room guide to what to look for in each space. The goal isn't a dramatic purge. It's leaving your current home 10% lighter so your new one gets a genuine fresh start.

Have you been wondering what professional cleaning services actually cost?

We broke it down for you using real data from the past 5 years of cleaning services across the Twin Cities.

Virtually all professional cleaning companies use 2-cleaner crews and typically charge $50 - $70 per hour per cleaner.

Just remember that these are averages and the real cost is based on how long it actually takes to clean your home.

We provide detailed quotes based on your specific home size and cleaning needs.

Move-in and move-out cleaning is a different animal than keeping up with your regular routine. Landlords and property managers look beyond what is easily visible. They check the inside of cabinets, behind the refrigerator, the oven door glass, the bottom track of the shower door. The list goes on.

We put together a full room-by-room checklist based on hundreds of move-in and move-out cleans we've done around the Twin Cities. It covers what to tackle, what order to do it in, and the spots that are easiest to miss.

Whether you're doing it yourself or figuring out if it's worth bringing someone in, the checklist is a good place to start.

Minnesota is Minnesota-ing again. After some very mild weather and even sunny temps in the 50s, mother nature is likely to drop up to a foot of snow on the Twin Cities this weekend.

Seasoned Minnesotans know better than to fall for the early tease of a false spring, but even the most grizzled veterans among us can get weather whiplash.

It’s not just the psychological toll of adjusting to the rapid weather swings. If you’re anything like us, your home is also caught up in the vacillating seasons. We’ve got our roller blades, bikes, and soccer balls out next to our winter jackets, snow pants, and shovels. Our entryway looks like it can’t decide what season it is, because it can’t.

But the reality is that the average last frost date for the Twin Cities is in early May, which means we have another 4-6 weeks of this seasonal no-man’s land. So how are we getting through this homestretch before spring?

Honestly, our best advice is to give yourself some grace. The entryway is going to be crowded for a few more weeks, and that’s just the cost of living somewhere with four real seasons.

Take this weekend as an opportunity to reset your entryway so it’s well organized heading into the week ahead. We’ll also be trying our best to get out and enjoy whatever snowfall we end up with.

What’s your approach? Are you embracing the upcoming snowfall, or are you ready to turn the page on winter altogether and just stay inside until the snow melts?

Minnesota is giving us a little preview of spring!

We are loving this sunshine and fresh air. However we do not love all the slush and gravel that come with it.

This in-between season is one of the hardest on our floors. Here’s what we try to do to prevent slush, gravel and mud from spreading throughout the house:

➡️ Shake out our mats every few days
➡️ Vacuum up the grit before it scratches the hardwood
➡️ Keep a towel by the door to wipe boots and paws

Even these simple things end up making a big difference as we get further into spring.

Is there anything else you do to keep the entryway mess contained?
