Last 6 months: 0 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Straight Up Cleaning is a house-cleaning business. A 2025 Google customer said a rental property left with scuffed walls, filthy floors and neglected kitchens and bathrooms by previous tenants was turned into a move-in-ready home just in time for the holidays, and named Rachael as responsive from the first call. A 2024 customer said they needed a deep clean on 2 days' notice, got a spot right away, and found the price a little below some of the bigger companies. A 2024 customer said they were overcharged, had to re-clean most of what was claimed to be cleaned, that the floors were not mopped, and that their call about it went unanswered and got a text reply. A 2025 customer said that after a walk-through for a move-out clean, she texted an hour later to say she left. On Angi, the business lists biweekly, deep, recurring, turnover and maid-service cleaning. **Strengths:** - A post-tenant clean — a 2025 customer said a trashed rental became move-in ready - Short-notice deep clean — a 2024 customer got a spot on 2 days' notice **Concerns:** - An overcharge complaint — a 2024 customer said they re-cleaned most of it - A dropped move-out clean — a 2025 customer said she texted that she left ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - A 2025 customer said a rental property left in shambles by tenants was made move-in ready _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT20xZlZqWnJRVGxGUkVoMGFrZGthVWREUTJSaGFsRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xa210446edfddb536!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOm1fVjZrQTlFREh0akdkaUdDQ2RhalE%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ My rental property was left in absolute shambles by the previous tenants – walls scuffed and stained, floors filthy beyond belief, kitche…” - A 2024 customer said a deep clean was booked on 2 days' notice _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSURuNDhDMWp3RRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xa210446edfddb536!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgIDn48C1jwE%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ I needed my place deep cleaned.
