How to Choose the Right Chore Plan for Your Home Size

Introduction: Every Home Deserves the Right Level of Care

No two homes — or households — are exactly alike. A single professional living in a one-bedroom apartment has different needs than a busy family in a three-bedroom ranch home. That’s why at Maxona Care, we design our chore service plans to match your home’s unique size, layout, and lifestyle.

Whether you live in a Waterloo apartment, a Cedar Falls family home, or a rural Black Hawk County ranch, we’ll help you find a care plan that keeps your space clean, safe, and stress-free — without paying for more than you need.

Why Home Size Matters When Choosing a Chore Plan

The size of your home doesn’t just determine how much space you have — it influences your cleaning time, maintenance needs, and energy levels.

A larger home naturally means more surfaces to clean, more laundry to fold, and more rooms to keep organized. Meanwhile, smaller spaces require frequent touch-ups to stay clutter-free.

By choosing a chore plan suited to your home size, you ensure:

• The right amount of help for your space

• Consistent quality without overpaying

• A schedule that fits your lifestyle

• More free time and less fatigue

At Maxona Care, we help you balance comfort, affordability, and practicality — whether you need a light monthly touch-up or full weekly support.

1. Small Spaces and Apartments (1 Bedroom or Studio)

Best for:

Single professionals, students, or seniors living in smaller units.

Common Chore Needs:

• Kitchen and bathroom cleaning

• Light dusting and vacuuming

• Trash removal and dishwashing

• Laundry and bed linen changes

• Quick organization and tidying

Recommended Plan:

Essential Care Plan — Biweekly or Monthly

Smaller spaces can feel messy quickly, especially if you’re short on time. Our Essential Plan provides just enough support to keep your home fresh and organized — without overcommitting your budget.

Perfect for those who want a clean space but prefer minimal visits.

2. Mid-Sized Homes (2–3 Bedrooms, 1–2 Bathrooms)

Best for:

Families, couples, or working parents balancing work, home, and kids.

Common Chore Needs:

• Full kitchen and bathroom cleaning

• Vacuuming, mopping, and dusting throughout

• Laundry, folding, and ironing

• Errands or grocery assistance (optional)

• Light seasonal cleaning (spring/fall refresh)

Recommended Plan:

Standard Care Plan — Weekly or Biweekly

Our Standard Plan offers the right balance for households that stay busy throughout the week. With recurring visits, your home stays consistently clean — no more marathon weekend cleaning sessions.

This plan is especially popular for Iowa’s 3-bedroom ranch and split-level homes, which require steady upkeep without deep cleaning every time.

3. Larger Homes (4+ Bedrooms or Multi-Level Homes)

Best for:

Large families, multi-generational households, or homeowners with high-traffic spaces.

Common Chore Needs:

• Deep cleaning of multiple rooms

• Multiple bathrooms and common areas

• Linen and laundry service for large households

• Detailed dusting, floor care, and organization

• Rotating cleaning of guest rooms, basements, or porches

Recommended Plan:

Premium Care Plan — Weekly or Custom Schedule

With more square footage comes greater responsibility — and our Premium Plan is designed for homes that need comprehensive care. We rotate deeper cleaning tasks, organize shared spaces, and handle laundry and seasonal upkeep so your entire home stays clean, top to bottom.

This plan ensures large homes maintain their comfort, value, and appearance year-round — especially during Iowa’s busy seasons and snowy months.

4. Special Considerations Beyond Size

While square footage is a great starting point, your household lifestyle also matters. Consider these factors when choosing your chore plan:

• Do you have kids or pets? You may need more frequent visits to manage daily messes.

• Are you home often or traveling regularly? Remote workers and frequent travelers have different needs.

• Do you have health or mobility limitations? A consistent plan ensures safety and reduces physical strain.

• Do you host guests or clients at home? Maintaining presentation-ready cleanliness builds confidence.

• Are you in a life transition (new baby, recovery, move, or renovation)? Temporary or hybrid plans can help bridge those changes.

Maxona Care’s flexibility means we can adjust your plan anytime — scaling up or down as your needs change.

Real-Life Example: How Matching the Right Plan Changes Everything

“When I first started with Maxona Care, I only scheduled monthly cleanings for my 3-bedroom home. It helped, but I still felt behind with laundry and clutter. They suggested switching to a biweekly Standard Plan — and it’s been life-changing. The house stays clean, the kids’ rooms are organized, and weekends feel relaxing again.”
— Stephanie R., Cedar Falls, IA
