How did you get started doing this type of work?
Dust Be Gone was founded by my mother, Teresa, back in the 1990s when she began cleaning houses to support our family. She built her business through word-of-mouth, doing it all on her own and never advertising. Thanks to her dedication and hard work, she has kept this business afloat for decades.
As my mother gets older, it's time for her to step back and enjoy some well-deserved relaxation. Last year, I left my job to help grow the business alongside my daughter, Ana, making it a true family affair. I've been supporting my mother with Dust Be Gone since 2001, and Ana is now helping us expand our services.
We are committed to providing eco-friendly cleaning because we understand how important it is for the health of our customers, our cleaners, and the planet. We love living in Arizona and are excited to continue offering exceptional, personalized cleaning services to our community while upholding our values of transparency, reliability, and customer satisfaction.
We're proud to be a bonded, insured, and BBB-accredited business, providing eco-friendly and reliable cleaning services to homes and businesses throughout the Valley.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
A recent project we're particularly proud of involved helping a young couple move out of their apartment. With a three-year-old, a newborn baby, and a dog, they were overwhelmed and needed assistance cleaning up to get their security deposit back. The apartment was covered in dog hair, especially in the room where the dog slept, and the kitchen and oven were extremely dirty. Despite the challenges, our team took extra time to get the apartment spotless, removing all dog hair, cleaning the oven, and sanitizing the bathrooms. It took our team of two about 8 hours, but we were happy to help them secure their deposit and leave the apartment pristine.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
When hiring a cleaning service, it's important to check reviews and references to ensure consistent positive feedback. Verify that the company is bonded, insured, and accredited to protect your property and guarantee quality service. Choose a provider with experienced, background-checked cleaners who can tailor their services to your specific needs. Transparent pricing is crucial, so look for a provider that offers clear rates and available discounts, such as first-time customer or recurring cleaning discounts, as well as special offers for seniors, veterans, and essential workers. Opt for eco-friendly practices if health and environmental concerns matter to you, and prioritize companies that communicate effectively, are punctual, and reliable for a seamless experience. Following these tips will help you confidently hire a trustworthy and exceptional cleaning service.
