First Up Cleaning Services provides residential house cleaning, maid service, and commercial janitorial cleaning throughout Queens, NY, serving neighborhoods across Northwest, North, Central, Southwest, and Southeast Queens. The company is insured, background-checked, and holds OSHA, ISSA, IJCSA, IEHA, and P&G Professional credentials.
From walk-up apartments in Astoria to office suites in Long Island City, First Up keeps homes and businesses spotless across every corner of Queens — insured, background-checked, and built for a borough that never really slows down.
Queens is 178 square miles of the most diverse zip codes in the country, and "near me" means something different depending on which train platform you're on or which bus stops by your house. A property manager in Long Island City needs a different response time than a family in Bayside — and First Up is ready.
We dispatch teams by zone, not by guesswork, so the crew that shows up already knows the building type, the parking situation, and the co-op rules on your block. Whether you need house cleaning for a Jackson Heights two-bedroom or office cleaning for a Flushing storefront, we're already working your neighborhood.

House Cleaning & Maid Service Across Queens
A studio in Sunnyside and a single-family in Douglaston don't need the same visit — so we don't send the same checklist. Standard cleans keep the everyday mess in check. Recurring maid service (weekly, biweekly, monthly) is the one most Queens households actually stick with once they try it. Deep cleans scrub the grout, hit the baseboards, and get into the cabinets — the stuff a normal pass skips. Appliance interiors like the oven and fridge are available as an add-on if you want the full reset. And when a co-op board or a landlord needs proof the unit's ready, move-in/move-out cleaning covers it end to end.
Commercial Cleaning & Janitorial Services for Queens Businesses
In Queens, commercial space runs small and stays busy — a medical suite in Forest Hills, a restaurant kitchen in Elmhurst, a retail strip in Ridgewood. Every commercial account starts with a walkthrough, not a phone quote, because a janitorial schedule that works for a law office doesn't work for a daycare. First Up teams are OSHA-trained and follow clinical-grade protocols where they're required — medical suites, in particular — and every commercial contract comes with a 30-day trial before you sign anything longer.

"First Up Cleaning Services came through and did a fantastic job on short notice. I actually needed my storefront to be cleaned and sanitized to make sure the environment was healthy and safe. They came quickly and did a thorough job cleaning. I don't usually call cleaning companies to help me clean my business, but if I need one, I'll call them again. Thanks!"
.Yes — First Up serves all five zones of Queens: Northwest, North, Central, Southwest, and Southeast. See the full neighborhood breakdown above. If you don't see yours listed, call us — if we're in your zone, we'll confirm.
What you pay comes down to three things — how big the space is, what kind of clean it is (standard, deep, or move-in/out), and whether you're booking once or on a schedule. Recurring visits run cheaper than one-time bookings. First-time customers get 15% off, and Monday through Wednesday appointments qualify for an extra 20% senior discount. Call or book online to confirm your rate.

Every technician is background-checked, bonded, and insured before stepping into your home or office for the first time. First Up holds OSHA, ISSA, IJCSA, IEHA, and P&G Professional credentials, and has been a BBB-accredited business since 2021. Each visit runs off the same documented checklist, so the crew that shows up in March does the same job as the crew that showed up in January.
