The Cleaning Authority Franchise Disclosure Document

The Cleaning Authority is a residential cleaning franchise offering scheduled maid services with a focus on eco-friendly products and recurring service plans. Founded in 1977, it has grown into one of the largest brands in the residential cleaning segment. Franchisees operate from office space, dispatching cleaning teams to homes on a rotating schedule. Startup investment is moderate, and the business emphasizes recurring revenue through biweekly or monthly service contracts. The model supports route efficiency, team training systems, and long-term customer retention.

With nearly 40,000 FDDs collected over the past 25+ years, our growing database is maintained and enriched by a dedicated information management team that ensures accuracy, completeness, and timely updates. Just as important, FRANdata understands that while FDDs offer a wealth of standardized information, they may not address every question a stakeholder has—particularly when it comes to franchise performance, operational nuances, or long-term growth potential. That's why we complement the information in FDDs with broader research and advisory capabilities, helping clients interpret what's there, understand the context, and access deeper insights when needed.
