ACY appreciates customer’s flexibility and understanding.
30. We send Friendly Reminders as a courtesy, but it is customer’s responsibility to mark on the calendar the cleaning schedule assigned. A No Show-Up Fee and/or Late Cancellation fee will be charged if customer informs she/he forgot the cleaning.
31. ACY reserved a cleaning spot only for your service, a sudden skip or last minute cancellation generally leaves our staff with gaps in their daily agenda, which brings unexpected extra costs for our company, as gasoline expenses, as well as wage payment to
our staff for their trip time and their waiting time. If a cleaner drives out to a home and cannot get in, we still pay them for this time. We have to know how many jobs we have in advance so we know how many cleaners we need to have every day. Please keep
in mind that as any other cleaning company, we need to plan ahead.
32. ACY does not take responsibility on cleaners waiting time once service has been confirmed and not rescheduled ahead of time. Customer will pay for waiting time or No Show-up.

34. ACY customer representative does the best to accommodate every single customer’s needs whenever it is possible. Please keep in mind that there are many other customers and we want to respect everyone’s spots.
35. Special requests that require changes to the schedule of the day and/or the week, or affect the cleaners schedules will be determined by company’s convenience. Changes in schedules may result in moving other people from regular spots. We cannot make
changes so often because the majority of the services are previously arranged. Customers usually adjust their appointments and compromises to be accommodated; ACY appreciates our customer’s understanding.
36. We may rarely ask our customers to be flexible in order to fit other customers in the schedule or due to one of the cleaner’s absence. We appreciate customers’ cooperation on this matter.
ACY reserves the right to refuse the service to anyone. We all know that cleaning houses is a tedious job, that’s why we appreciate our cleaners’ hard work; as we also expect our clients to appreciate the work that employees do for them. We do our best to provide a great experience so that we require our work to be paid in full at the time of service has been provided; we also anticipate to be well treated and respected. We won’t conduct business with customers that treat our staff poorly or aggressively.
