Should You Travel to Another City to Clean House? Or, is This a Rookie Cleaner Trap?

Should you travel to another city to clean house? And, if you do how much should you charge? WAIT! Before you go, there are a few things to figure out first like will you be able to take your cleaning supplies with you? And do you have a place to stay when you arrive in the new city? Many #housecleaners take a job in a distant place with a previous client, without factoring in the costs of transportation, food, lodging, and unbillable time while away.
It's easy to get caught up in the moment of an old client not knowing anyone in their new city and thinking you are the only one who can clean for them - but this might be a perfect time to both go your separate ways. These #cleaningbusiness tips may save your life.

Today's Ask a House Cleaner sponsor is #SavvyCleaner training and certification for house cleaners and maids. (https://savvycleaner.com/join) And your host today is #AngelaBrown
