Hit my first $50k month cleaning post-move-out jobs with my Bissell vac

Man, just wrapped up my first $50k month running the cleaning crew, mostly hitting those grimy post-move-out gigs where tenants leave the place trashed. Swear by my Bissell Big Green for sucking up all the embedded dirt from carpets, saved my back on a ton of those deep cleans. Feels good to hit that milestone after scraping by for years, but damn the burnout is real.

Congrats on the big month, but don't forget to book that massage before your shoulders turn to concrete.

Fuck these PE vultures buying up every cleaning outfit in sight, turning independents like us into wage slaves.

$50k? That's the sound of my empty truck echoing back at me.

Bissell is solid, but pair it with a Hoover for baseboards if you're doing full houses.

Those post-move-outs are gold mines if you can stomach the biohazards sometimes.

How'd you land that many clients without burning out the team?

Proud of you man, I remember my first decent month after 5 years of nada.

Same here, hitting milestones just means more headaches from clients who think $50k buys perfection.

Bissell Big Green changed my life, but the bags fill up so fast on move-outs.

SharkBite of vacuums? Nah, overpriced crap, Bissell all day.

How many hours you logging to hit that $50k?

We all been there, celebrating the win while scrubbing toilets at dawn.

Finally pulling real numbers after years of break-even sucks, but cherish it.

Insurance companies jacking rates because of one slip-up, killing our margins.

Mixing vinegar and baking soda for counters? Total BS, wastes time on jobs.

Never skimp on good PPE for those chemical cleans, saved my lungs once.

Clients expecting miracles for pennies, then ghosting on payment.

I'm in the same boat, just crossed $40k last month.

Deep cleans pay off, but the dust bunnies fight back hard.

Bissell? More like Bissell yeah! Game changer for sure.

Swiffer mops are a scam, stick to microfiber for real results.

Heard Melissa Maker on Clean My Space talk about vacs, she swears by uprights like that.

Post-move-outs are where the real money hides, if you can handle the mess.

Burnout hits hard after milestones, take a day off damn it.

Guy in Cleaning Business Owners FB group ranted about the same, hitting big then crashing.

Proud moment, but watch those taxes eating half your win.

For move-outs, quote higher upfront, saves arguments later.

Hate when teams slack on window tracks, kills the whole job.

Those PE roll-ups are destroying small cleaners like us.

We feel you on the milestone high, then reality kicks in.

Bissell holds up, but maintenance is key or it dies quick.

How do you handle the seasonal dips after big months?

Frustrated with suppliers hiking prices on all the cleaners we use.

Same grind, man, congrats but yeah the toll adds up.

Use Jobber for invoicing those big jobs, streamlines everything.

Nothing like finding a forgotten $500 under a couch during clean.

Clients in House Cleaning Business group always complain about vac noise.

Laughed when my Bissell ate a sock mid-job, client thought it was hilarious.

Funny how the best months come from the worst messes.

Depression cleans are tough, but rewarding when you see the change.

All of us chasing that next milestone while dodging burnout.

Watched a video on starting a cleaning biz, they said aim for $30k first, you crushed it.

Try QuickBooks for tracking those $50k months, keeps the books clean.
