You agree to pay immediately with a new credit/debit card the past due unpaid balance, plus a 2% monthly service charge, and any non-sufficient funds (NSF) fees charged by the bank or credit card processor. You also agree that the new credit/debit card will be the payment method charged going forward.

CANCELLING OR RESCHEDULING SCHEDULED VISITS. Once you have booked a service visit with us it means that we have reserved time in our schedule exclusively for you.

You agree to paid the maximum cancellation fee of $250 if our cleaning professionals cannot gain access to your home or are turned away on the day of service.

SAFELY STORING YOUR KEYS & CODES.

Restricted access to keys, and security measures.

  • The keys are in a bolt safe in our office.
  • The owner is the only person that has access to the safe & the keys.
  • None of the keys have any sort of traceable indicator to identify who does the key belong to. Each key has a numbered code that only the owner understand. In the extremely unlikely event that a key is lost or stolen there would be nothing connecting it to where it corresponds.

How daily assignment of keys is conducted.

  • Each morning route supervisors are assigned keys in a chronological numbered sequence for the routes they will be visiting that day.
  • Supervisors sign a key log of the keys they are carrying for the day, we will forever now know who had access at one point to the client’s keys. (Signature, time, date)
  • Supervisors sign a key log of keys they are returning for the day, we will know that all keys were properly returned. (Signature, time, date)
  • Throughout workday the supervisor will keep the keys secured in the same spot on their body, so there is no possibility of misplacing keys. After properly closing a clients home the supervisor will confirm they have the customers key secured in their possession.
  • No one but the supervisor will be allowed to touch the keys of the client assigned to them.

Internal Management & Logistics of keys.

  • When we receive a new set of keys (garage code, gate code, alarm code, hiding location, or entry method, etc.) from the customer they must show us how to properly conduct the entry method.
  • When we issue to a supervisor the key ring with the corresponding keys for the cleaning stops of the day they are simply labeled which stop this key corresponds to. (#1, #3, #7 etc.)
  • Part of our end of day reconciliation involves typing our key logs into an excel file saved with the date so we have readily accessible who had access to each client.

Ulterior Entry Methods.

  • Garage codes: are place on little dog tags and follow the same coding concept as keys. Similar principle to no one but the supervisor being able to touch keys, non-managerial staff is not allowed to stand near garage while supervisor is punching in code.
  • Hidden keys: if the customer prefers having a designated spot we will utilize the key and return it to its hiding spot. Supervisor will assure there is no one but themselves present when they stash the key. We encourage clients to leave the key in this stash spot only on days of cleaning service. This methodology should only be used if residence has privacy to allow this.
  • Side door unlocked: We will enter though a designated side door, when our work is complete we will make sure that side door is locked from the inside. This methodology should only be used if residence has privacy to allow this.
  • Neighbor or front desk: Similar to a drop box, having a neighbor or front desk give us keys for access and returning the keys upon completion. Proper coordinating must be conducted so front desk and neighbors are present when we arrive and leave.
  • Alarm codes: Customers will show us how to properly activate and disactivate alarms. If we are accessing a residence with an alarm code CUSTOMERS MUST HAVE THEIR CELL PHONES readily available in case any issues pop up with the alarm we may contact them immediately. Alarm codes will be issued along with a clients key in the same fashion garage codes are issued.
  • Gated access to building: Having the proper access code, or permission to be allowed must be properly coordinated. Gate access codes will be handled like garage codes.

 

CELLPHONE ACCESSIBILITY WHEN WE CLEAN AND YOUR ARE NOT PRESENT. IF YOU ARE NOT PRESENT WHILE WE CLEAN, YOU AGREE TO HAVE YOUR CELL PHONE READILY ACCESSIBLE INCASE ANY SITUATION NEEDS YOUR ATTENTION.

SERVICE CHANGES, ADDING EXTRA SERVICES, & SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS. We have a procedure for each room we clean, surface we encounter, task we perform, and tool & product we use.

GOVERING LAW, JURISDICTION AND VENUE. To the extent that any dispute arising between us is not governed by the Arbitration Agreement set forth in “Arbitration Agreement” section below, the dispute will be governed by the laws of the state of New Jersey without regard to conflicts of laws principles.

YOU AGREE THAT, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS, AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR CONNECTED WITH THIS SITE AND/OR THESE TERMS, WILL BE RESOLVED INDIVIDUALLY, WITHOUT RESORT TO ANY FORM OF CLASS ACTION. This provision operates to the fullest extent permissible by law.

ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHT TO BRING A LAWSUIT IN COURT. THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THE JAMS RULES AND PROCEDURES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR CLEANING FOR BUSY PEOPLE  WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.

  1. This arbitration agreement governs Dispute between us. Except for small claims actions and requests for injunctive relief as explained further below, you and CLEANING FOR BUSY PEOPLE agree that all Disputes that arise between us shall be governed by binding arbitration pursuant to this section. The parties intend to give the term “Disputes” the broadest possible definition that will be enforced and it includes, but is not limited to, any and all disputes, controversies, or claims that rise out of or in any way relate to these Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy and the data we collect from you, your access to and use of the Site and/or Services, the Content, any product or service you book through use of the Site or Services. The parties further agree that the arbitrator and not a court will resolve all threshold issues of arbitrability, including but not limited to the enforceability, validity and/or scope of this agreement to arbitrate. For avoidance of doubt, this section applies to all Disputes between us, including those that arose or accrued before the parties entered into this agreement.
  2. Governing Law and Rules. These Terms reflect a transaction involving commerce to which the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) applies. To the extent the FAA and/or the Dispute requires the application of state law, the law of the state of New Jersey shall apply. The arbitration shall proceed pursuant to the current Jams Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures if the amount in controversy is less than $250,000 and the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS if the amount in controversy exceeds $250,000 (collectively, the “JAMS Rules and Procedures”). The JAMS Rules and Procedures are available at https://www.jamsadr.com/ or by calling (800) 352-5267. The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator, who shall be selected pursuant to the applicable JAMS Rules and Procedures. The arbitrator’s decision, judgment, or award in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
  3. Exceptions to Arbitration. The only Disputes that are not subject to arbitration pursuant to this section and may be maintained in court are claims for provisional or injunctive relief, including claims for pre-arbitral attachments, preliminary injunctions, or public injunctive relief. Filing a small claims action and/or making a request in court for the injunctive relief permitted by this subsection shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to arbitrate any additional Disputes that remain arbitrable under this section or that are interpreted as otherwise incompatible with the right to arbitrate.
  4. Class Action Waiver. PLEASE READ THIS PARAGRAPH CAREFULLY—IT SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. All Disputes will be resolved on an individual basis and not on behalf of, or as any part of, a purported class, consolidated, representative or private attorney general proceeding.
  5. If you initiate arbitration against us, you will be responsible for your portion of the professional fees for the arbitrator’s services or any other JAMS fees as set forth in the applicable JAMS rules. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration, the compensation of the arbitrator, and/or the parties’ attorneys’ fees among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate. Pursuant to the JAMS Rules and Procedures, the arbitration shall proceed in a location determined by the arbitrator (provided that such location is reasonably convenient for you), or at such other location as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties.
  6. If any part of this section other than the Class Action Waiver is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein. If the Class Action Waiver is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, however, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void and the Dispute shall proceed in court.
