Looking for cleaning work in San Francisco? Be your own boss.

Instead of taking a cleaning job working for someone else, you can run your own cleaning businesson SanCrew — set your own prices, keep your own schedule, and get the professional tools that usually take years to build. Customers across San Francisco are already searching for cleaners. Here’s how SanCrew helps you reach them and look established from day one.

What is SanCrew?

SanCrew is San Francisco’s cleaning marketplace— it connects independent cleaning professionals with customers who are looking to book. You get access to those customers plus the booking, payment, and reminder tools to serve them well. You stay fully independent: SanCrew is a marketplace, not an employer.

Why work for yourself

A job pays you a wage someone else decides. Your own business pays you what you decide — and the upside is yours:

You set your own prices

Charge what your work is worth — for every service and add-on. SanCrew never sets or suggests your rates.

You keep your own schedule

Work when you want, where you want. Pick the jobs that fit your week; no minimum hours, no shifts.

You keep more of what you earn

There's a service fee on customers who find you through the marketplace — and 0% commission on customers you bring yourself. Tips are 100% yours.

You own the relationship

Your customers, your reputation, your business. SanCrew is the tool you run it on, not the boss telling you how.

The professional toolkit SanCrew gives you

Running your own business usually means juggling payments, reminders, no-shows, and trust on your own. SanCrew handles that side so you look professional and keep your focus on the cleaning:

Card payments — look professional, skip the cash

Customers pay securely by card through the app, so there's no chasing cash or awkward 'can you Venmo me?' moments. You get paid for your completed jobs, straight to your account.

Automatic reminders & confirmations

SanCrew sends your customers their booking details and reminders, so they're ready when you arrive and no-shows go down. You look organized without lifting a finger.

Your own profile & reviews

Build a real reputation. Your ratings and reviews travel with you and help new customers choose you — the way word-of-mouth should work.

A background-checked marketplace

Every cleaner is background-checked, which builds the trust that makes customers comfortable booking — and that reflects well on you.

Liability protection on platform jobs

Jobs booked through SanCrew come with liability protection for accidental property damage during a service. (Carrying your own insurance too is always smart.)

Free training & tax basics

SanCrew Academy is free — courses on technique, safety, eco-friendly supplies, and the business side, including tax basics for independent contractors (you get a 1099).

You run the business. SanCrew runs the busywork.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a cleaning job or an employee position?

Neither — it's your own business. On SanCrew you're an independent contractor: you set your own prices, choose which jobs to take, use your own supplies and methods, and receive a 1099. SanCrew is a marketplace that connects you with customers, not an employer.

How do I get customers in San Francisco?

Customers across San Francisco search SanCrew for cleaners, compare profiles and prices, and book directly. Set your services, prices, and the neighborhoods you cover, and you'll show up for customers looking in your area. You can also bring your own existing customers and keep 100%.

Do I need my own supplies?

Yes — you bring your own cleaning supplies and equipment, which is part of running your own business. SanCrew Academy has a free course on recommended eco-friendly, non-toxic products if you want guidance.

How do I get paid, and do I look professional doing it?

Customers pay securely by credit card through the app for your completed jobs — no cash, no invoices to chase. That, plus automatic booking confirmations and reminders and your own reviewed profile, is what makes you look like the established professional you are.

What does it cost to join?

Listing on SanCrew is free — no signup fee, no monthly charge. There's a service fee on customers who book you through the marketplace, shown up front before you accept. On customers you bring yourself, you keep 100%.

Does SanCrew tell me how to clean or when to work?

No. You decide how you clean, what you charge, which jobs you take, and when you're available. SanCrew handles the booking, payment, and reminders so you can focus on the work — but the business is yours.
