Winner – Best Home
Cleaning Service

f cleanliness is next to godliness,
then the employees of Mount Pleasant-based
Molly Maid are angels armed with disinfectant.
Pesky dust bunnies and smudged mirrors don’t
stand a chance in the wake of these experts, who
take the business of tidying up very seriously.
Detailed and thorough, Molly Maid has been
a trusted name in the industry for 30 years. For a decade,
they have served Mount Pleasant and surrounding areas,
touching lives of the Lowcountry in ways that go beyond
making countertops glisten.
“This is our second year
winning,” said local franchisee
Jennifer Poole, reflecting on
the company’s recent award
of being voted Best Cleaning
Service in Mount Pleasant. “It
feels good to keep the crown,
knowing we’re an important
part of our customers’ families.”
Putting clients’ requests
and satisfaction first, Molly
Maid tailors each cleaning to
an individual’s needs. Keeping
the visiting cleaning team to
two people, so clients aren’t
overwhelmed, they strive to maintain a personal touch.
“We become a part of the rhythm of people’s lives,” said
Poole, who estimates the local company, headquartered
at 1035 Johnnie Dodds Blvd., does well over 10,000
cleanings a year. “Seeing the impact we have on their lives
is very rewarding. We give people more time to spend with
their families.”
Families depend on Molly Maid’s weekly, every other
week and monthly cleaning services as trusted companions
to their routines.
“We stick to what we know and what we know well,”
said Poole, who credits the company’s success to the caliber
of people they hire.
Seasoned, bonded and insured specialists make up the
housekeeping staff. Before newbies are brought on board,
they go through a training process to fully obtain the skills
needed to meet the Molly Maid criteria.
“We’ve built a family atmosphere within the four walls
of our office,” said Poole. “It’s rewarding to know we can
provide people with good, steady jobs.”
Clients and staff aren’t the only ones whose lives are
enriched by Molly Maid. A portion of every sale from each
house cleaning goes toward The Ms. Molly Foundation –
the company’s organization that makes a positive difference
for women and children affected by domestic violence.
By donating directly to local safe houses and shelters,
Molly Maid ensures a better
tomorrow for many.
“Since we opened in 2004,
we’ve given over $20,000
in goods and services to the
Ms. Molly Foundation,” said
Poole. ”Ninety-five percent of
people affected by domestic
violence are female. Our
employees are traditionally
female, and the majority of
the customers who call to
make the house cleaning
arrangements are female, so
it makes this an important
aspect of all the lives we touch
as a business.”
Profits accumulated for donations are trickled down to
organizations throughout the Charleston area, such as My
Sister’s House. This nonprofit provides a temporary shelter,
at an undisclosed location, for women and children looking
to flee from the hands of their abusers.
With no rigid contracts and an altruistic spirit, Molly
Maid is the obvious choice if you seek a home that sparkles
and shines. Those looking to get a sense of what a visit

take over.
