Commercial Cleaning Service, Inc.

Commercial Cleaning Service, Inc. is the company behind the 78-Clean and 78-Fixit brands, working out of 48 N. Beacon Street in Allston. It says it has been cleaning Greater Boston buildings since 1977 and now runs about 175 employees, and its work is aimed squarely at property managers: recurring janitorial programs, apartment turnovers, floor care, snow removal, trash service, and handyman repairs through its 78-Fixit side. Boston, Brookline, Cambridge and Newton are the areas it names as its own. The company also describes itself as family-owned and women-owned. That is its own statement about itself rather than a badge confirmed against a registry, so treat it as the company's claim and ask directly if it factors into your decision. The other side of the story is thin. No customers have written publicly about the work, so there is nothing independent to set against the company's own account of its standards. The one outside document that names the business is a National Labor Relations Board case captioned alongside Service Employees International Union, Local 615 — no date, no charge detail, no stated outcome, and nothing either way about the quality of the cleaning. If you run a condo association or an apartment building, this is the shape of vendor the description fits: long-running, staffed for recurring programs, set up for building-scale work rather than a single house clean. Before signing anything, ask for references at buildings they service now, get the scope and visit frequency in writing, and ask about the labor-board filing.
