Before We Arrive

Reminders & Arrival

Life is busy — so we make sure your clean day is never a surprise. Here's what to expect leading up to your appointment:

📲
Night Before A reminder text so you can prep at your own pace — no last-minute scramble.
🚗
Day of Your Clean We'll text again the moment your team is on the way.
👥
Your Team Each team has 3 people and a 1-hour arrival window before they're considered late.
💡
Good to know: Punctuality matters to us as much as it does to you. If your team hasn't arrived within the 1-hour window, they're officially late — and we take that seriously.
5-Minute Prep

Quick Checklist Before We Arrive

You don't need a spotless home — just help us help you. The more cleared your surfaces are, the deeper we can clean. Here's all it takes:

  • Dishes Put dishes away or load them in the dishwasher. We'll wipe the sink and clean the counters once they're clear.
  • Clear the Surfaces Tuck away laundry, mail, papers, and clutter from counters and tables. The more open space we have, the better your clean will be.
  • Beds & Linens Leave fresh linens folded at the foot of the bed, or let us know where they're stored. No fresh linens left out? No problem — we'll remake the beds with what's already on them.
  • Trash & Recycling We empty bagged trash from lined indoor bins, reline them, and take the bags to your outdoor bin. We don't remove bulk trash, debris, or piles of boxes. Recycling should be broken down and bagged.
🔑
No Need to Stay Home

Home Access

You absolutely do not need to be home for your clean — that's the whole point! Just provide one of the following so our team can get in:

🔑 A spare house key
🔢 A door keypad code
🚗 A garage entry code
🔒
Your key is safe with us. Keys stored with Sandia Green Clean are kept securely and are never labeled with your name or address. Your privacy is always protected.
🐾
We Love Your Fur Babies

Pets

We're a pet-friendly team and love meeting the four-legged members of your family. For the smoothest clean possible, please keep dogs kenneled or outside during your appointment.

Scheduling Policies

Skip Fees & Lockout Policy

We're a small, locally owned business — and every appointment on our schedule matters. When a clean is cancelled or missed, it leaves a gap that's hard to fill on short notice. We appreciate your understanding of these simple policies, and we promise they're fair.

Skip Clean Policy
First 2 skips per year With 24+ hours' notice
FREE
3rd skip and beyond With 24+ hours' notice
$10
Any cancellation Less than 24 hours' notice
$20
Lockout Policy

If our team arrives and can't get into your home, requiring a reschedule, a lockout fee applies.

Unable to access home
$50

Double-check that your door code or key is ready before clean day — it's an easy one to avoid!

A quick note on billing: If a skip or lockout fee applies, you may receive an automated "job completed" notification — that's just how our system processes billing. It doesn't mean anyone visited your home. Sorry for any confusion! Call or text us anytime at (505) 404-3071 with questions.
Please note: To keep your service running smoothly and your costs stable, we reserve the right to adjust arrival times and team assignments day-to-day based on scheduling needs. We'll always keep you informed, and your quality of clean remains the same — always.
