House Cleaning in Savannah & Pooler, GA: A Local Guide
Easy Living Cleaners is a family run, background checked house cleaning company based in Savannah, serving Savannah, Pooler, Richmond Hill, Rincon, and the surrounding coastal Georgia area. This guide covers the kinds of cleaning you can book locally, how pricing works, how to tell a reliable company from a risky one, and the things a Savannah or Pooler home needs that a generic checklist tends to miss.
Whether you own a plaster walled rowhouse off a downtown square, a newer build in Godley Station, or a short term rental near the Historic District, the right service and the right schedule are different. Here is how to sort it out.
What house cleaning services can you book in Savannah and Pooler?
Six, and they split into one time work and scheduled work. A one time clean is a single visit with no commitment. A recurring plan puts the same team on your home on a set schedule at a lower rate per visit.
- Standard Cleaning. A one time, room by room reset: dusting, vacuuming, mopping, and kitchen and bathroom surfaces, fixtures, and appliance exteriors.
- Recurring Cleaning. The same clean on a weekly, biweekly, or monthly schedule, at a lower rate per visit.
- Deep Cleaning. The grime that builds up and the areas a standard clean skips: baseboards, inside the oven and refrigerator, grout, vents, and behind furniture.
- Move Out and Move In Cleaning. A full clean of an empty home for a lease turnover, a closing, or a PCS move, inside every cabinet and appliance.
- Vacation Rental and Airbnb Cleaning. Guest ready turnovers timed to checkout and check in, with fresh linens and restocking.
- Office and Commercial Cleaning. Offices, retail, medical, and warehouse space, scheduled around business hours.
How much does house cleaning cost in Savannah?
House cleaning in the Savannah area is priced per visit, not by the hour. Four things set the number: how many square feet the home is, how many bathrooms it has, what condition it is in right now, and how often you plan to book. There is no standard flat rate, and any company that gives you a firm price without seeing the home or asking those questions is guessing.
A one time clean of a home that is already kept up costs less than a first deep clean of a home that has not had professional attention in a while. An empty home for a move costs more than either, because every cabinet, drawer, and appliance gets done inside and out. A recurring plan carries the lowest rate per visit, and that rate improves as the visits get closer together.
Easy Living Cleaners quotes every job in writing before any work starts. The fastest way to a real number for your home is to request a free estimate with your square footage, bathroom count, and a short note on the current condition. You will have the written estimate by email, and nothing is scheduled until you approve it.
Standard, deep, or move out: which clean do you actually need?
If your home is already in decent shape and just needs a refresh, book a standard clean. If it has been more than three or four months since a professional clean, or there is visible buildup on baseboards, in the oven, or around fixtures, start with a deep clean. If the home is empty because you are moving in or out, that is a move out or move in clean.
A common and sensible pattern is a deep clean as the first visit to get the home to a baseline, then a standard clean on a recurring schedule to hold it there. If you are not sure, describe the situation on the estimate form and Easy Living Cleaners will recommend the fit. Most people guess wrong the first time, and that is normal.
How often should you schedule recurring cleaning?
Weekly for busy or full households, homes with kids or pets, or anyone who wants it to always feel just cleaned. Biweekly is the most common choice and keeps dust and allergens down without weekly scheduling. Monthly works for tidy homes, smaller spaces, or a downtown place that is not lived in full time.
In Pooler specifically, biweekly is the workhorse. A lot of the homes here are newer builds owned by families with two working parents, so the goal is upkeep, not digging out years of grime, and every other week keeps the house ahead of the household. See how recurring cleaning works.
What do Savannah’s historic homes need that newer homes do not?
Older Savannah houses in the Historic District, the Victorian District, Ardsley Park, and Gordonston reward a cleaner who slows down. Heart pine floors mark easily and do not want a soaking wet mop. Lath and plaster walls show every streak. Antique hardware does not want a harsh spray. Tall single pane windows and their deep sills collect grime and courtyard pollen. Radiators, transoms, and picture rails add dusting surface a builder grade home does not have.
None of that is a problem for a team that cleans these homes every week, but it is worth telling any company about the finishes you want handled a particular way before the first visit. If a downtown home has not had a professional clean in a while, the window tracks, baseboards, ceiling fans, and tops of door casings usually call for a deep clean first.
What about newer homes in Pooler and the west side?
Pooler has been one of the fastest growing towns in Georgia for years, and most of the housing is newer construction in planned subdivisions such as Godley Station, The Farm at Morgan Lakes, Forest Lakes, Savannah Quarters, and Hamilton Grove. A home that is five or ten years old is usually in good structural shape, so the work is upkeep rather than restoration, which makes recurring cleaning an efficient fit.
The other big category here is move in cleaning. Between new build closings, resales, and military PCS moves tied to Hunter Army Airfield, Fort Stewart, and the Gulfstream workforce, there is a steady flow of empty houses that need every cabinet, closet, and appliance done before the furniture arrives. An empty home is the ideal time for it, because everything is reachable. See move out and move in cleaning.
Does coastal Georgia weather change how a home gets cleaned?
Yes, in three ways. High year round humidity encourages mildew in bathrooms and on grout and caulk, so those areas need attention more often than they would inland. Pollen season runs roughly February through April, heavy on oak and pine, and leaves a fine yellow film on every surface that pushes a lot of homes to a tighter cleaning schedule for a few weeks. And near the islands, on Isle of Hope, Wilmington Island, and Tybee, salt air and tracked in sand are constant, so entryways, floors, and window glass work harder.
Short term rental and Airbnb turnovers in Savannah
Downtown Savannah has one of the busiest short term rental markets in the Southeast. If you host near the squares, on Jones Street, in the Starland District, or out on Tybee, turnover cleaning has to run on the guest calendar: same day, timed to the gap between checkout and check in, with fresh linens, a restock of the essentials you leave out, and a guest ready reset every time. Consistency is what protects your reviews. See vacation rental and Airbnb cleaning.
How do you choose a reliable house cleaning company in Savannah or Pooler?
A few things separate a company you can hand a key to from one you cannot.
- Background checked cleaners. Ask directly. Every Easy Living Cleaners cleaner is background checked and trained before working in a home.
- A written estimate before any work. You should know the price in writing, not find out after. Get the quote by email first.
- A clear checklist. The company should be able to tell you exactly what a visit covers and what costs extra.
- The same team where possible. Small local teams mean you tend to see the same faces, which matters for trust and for a cleaner who learns your home.
- Honesty about a deep clean first. A company that books a neglected home as a quick standard clean is setting you up to be disappointed.
- A real local presence. Easy Living Cleaners is family run and rooted in Savannah, not a franchise or a national brand routing calls to a call center.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a house cleaning cost in Savannah, GA?
House cleaning in the Savannah area is priced per visit, based on the home’s size, number of bathrooms, current condition, and how often you book. A one time clean costs more than a recurring visit, and a deep clean or a move out clean costs more still. Easy Living Cleaners gives a written estimate before any work begins, and nothing is scheduled until you approve it.
Should I get a deep clean before starting a recurring service?
Usually yes, if it has been more than three or four months since a professional clean. A deep clean brings the home to a baseline so every recurring visit after it is faster and more consistent. If the home is already well maintained, a standard clean is enough to start.
Are Easy Living Cleaners’ cleaners background checked?
Yes. Easy Living Cleaners is family run, and every cleaner is background checked and trained before working in a client’s home. Teams are small and local, so clients tend to see the same people each visit.
Do you bring your own cleaning supplies?
Yes, professional grade supplies and equipment come to every job. If you would prefer fragrance free products, eco friendly products only, or your own supplies, just say so when you book.
Do you clean historic homes in downtown Savannah?
Yes, regularly. We are used to the parking, the stairs, the tight kitchens, and the older finishes such as heart pine floors, plaster walls, and antique hardware that come with a Historic District or Victorian District home. Mention any surface you want handled a particular way when you book.
Do you offer move in and move out cleaning for new construction in Pooler?
Yes, and an empty house is the ideal time for it. We clean inside every cabinet and closet, wipe down the surfaces the builder left dusty, and clean the appliances inside and out. This is common work in Godley Station, The Farm at Morgan Lakes, Savannah Quarters, and the newer phases.
How do I get a free estimate?
Request one online through our estimate form or call (912) 421-8621. Tell us your home’s size, its condition, and the type of clean you want, and we will email a written estimate. Requesting online is the fastest way to hear back.
