Chronicling his progress as “Tidy Dad” on Instagram, Moore learned that tidying is about so much more than the aesthetics and decluttering of a physical space.

Did you know that if you clean just 2 houses a day/5 days a week, you could make $3,700- $5,000 a month? Don’t believe me? Let’s do the math. The average house cleaning price today is between $90 to $150. Let’s go with the average of the two $120. Now 2 houses a day means $240 a day X 5 days a week = $1,200 weekly X 4.2 (weeks in a month) = $5,040! Simple. Average commercial (office/retail) cleaning price is between $220 to $450 X 2 a day = $440 to $900 a day!
