First Up Cleaning Services has provided OSHA-certified, background-checked house cleaning, apartment cleaning, and office cleaning across Manhattan since 2015, serving neighborhoods from Inwood to the Financial District with upfront pricing and no hidden fees.
Backed by a checklist, not guesswork — for homes and offices across Manhattan, performed the same way every time.
Manhattan apartments and offices don't get a day off — and neither does the dust, the foot traffic, or the wear that comes with city living. First Up Cleaning Services brings the same OSHA-certified process to a studio in Inwood as we do to an office near the Financial District: a documented room-by-room checklist, trained technicians, and our own supplies on every visit.
Whether you need an apartment cleaning service for your home or a dedicated commercial cleaning team for your business, the standard stays the same — only the scope changes.


From a studio in Murray Hill to a townhouse in the West Village, Manhattan apartments take a beating — elevators, foot traffic, and city dust don't pause for anyone's schedule. From general cleaning to specialized deep cleans, First Up keeps your space ready with:

Manhattan isn't one neighborhood — it's dozens, each with its own rhythm. In Chinatown, that might mean cleaning the apartment above a storefront and the storefront itself in the same visit. In Harlem, it's prewar brownstones with high ceilings and original moldings. First Up adjusts to whichever Manhattan you call home or do business in — across all three zones below:
Tribeca, SoHo, Little Italy, Chinatown, Financial District, Battery Park City, Lower East Side, East Village, Alphabet City, Greenwich Village, West Village
Chelsea, Flatiron District, Gramercy Park, Murray Hill, Kips Bay, Midtown East, Midtown West, Hell's Kitchen
