Grow Your Columbus Cleaning Business with MaidProfit
From Midtown to North Columbus, Green Island Hills to Fort Moore — MaidProfit gives Columbus cleaning companies the tools to book more jobs and grow in the Chattahoochee Valley.
Why Columbus’s Military Economy Powers Cleaning Demand
Columbus is home to Fort Moore (formerly Fort Benning), one of the largest military installations in the world. The Maneuver Center of Excellence processes thousands of soldiers annually, creating constant demand for military housing turnovers, temporary quarters cleaning, and residential services for military families.
The city’s economy is further supported by AFLAC (headquartered in Columbus), TSYS/Global Payments, and a growing healthcare sector. These corporate employers provide a professional workforce that sustains residential cleaning demand beyond the military market.
Columbus’s North Columbus corridor (Green Island Hills, Saddlebrook, Midland) features newer subdivisions attracting families and professionals. The Uptown Columbus riverwalk district’s revitalization is also drawing young professionals and creating commercial cleaning opportunities.
Fort Moore = Year-Round Turnover
Fort Moore’s massive training operations mean soldiers and families are constantly arriving and departing. This creates a reliable, year-round pipeline of cleaning jobs. MaidProfit helps you manage the volume.
