Join a Proven Commercial Cleaning Business

ServiceMaster was founded in 1929 as a moth-proofing company by Marion E. Wade, a former minor league baseball player who believed that employees and customers should always be treated with dignity and respect.

Incorporated in 1947, it expanded to offer carpet cleaning in 1952, establishing one of America's first franchise businesses. In 1962, it entered the healthcare arena and was a pioneer in third-party outsourcing. In 1980, ServiceMaster expanded its commercial cleaning business to professional cleaning of educational facilities.

For over 65 years, ServiceMaster Clean has been following Marion Wade’s example by serving facilities nationwide with excellent janitorial services and even better customer care. Since our early days, we’ve pursued the very highest industry standards in all aspects of our commercial cleaning business. Our impressive growth over the years is all thanks to our passion for serving our customers, dedication to our work, and commitment to delivering an unbeatable level of quality.

Supporting Our Franchisees on the Path to Success

The consistency of how each commercial cleaning business is operated is a blueprint for success. Growing the revenue and value of their franchise is the goal of each individual franchisee, and we leverage marketing, sales, and service execution to do just that. Although our franchisees are business owners rather than technicians, they’re trained in all facets of the business at our ServiceMaster Academy and have a thorough understanding of the janitorial services we provide. We also offer business management consulting, along with a best-in-class operational online platform. Our brand standards and training departments give franchise owners all the resources they need to execute our services in a consistent manner. Every member of our franchising team is committed to making it simple and straightforward for franchisees to operate profitable commercial cleaning businesses and expand their revenue streams.
