Why Minneapolis Is a Top-Tier Cleaning Market

Minneapolis anchors one of the most affluent and economically diversified metros in the Midwest. With a metro population of 3.7 million and a median household income of $72,400, the Twin Cities market offers cleaning businesses access to high-paying clients across a wide geography.

The city’s economy is powered by Fortune 500 headquarters (Target, UnitedHealth Group, US Bancorp, General Mills, 3M), a thriving healthcare sector, and a growing tech scene. This diverse employer base creates a large professional workforce that increasingly relies on cleaning services.

Minneapolis’ harsh winters and four distinct seasons drive year-round cleaning demand. Spring deep cleans, fall window washing, and regular maintenance cleaning through the long winter months keep businesses busy. The city’s strong suburban ring — Edina, Plymouth, Eden Prairie, Wayzata — offers some of the most affluent zip codes in the Midwest.

Fortune 500 Capital = Premium Clients

Minneapolis has more Fortune 500 headquarters per capita than any US metro. These companies employ executives and professionals who expect premium home cleaning services. MaidProfit helps you attract and retain these high-value clients.

Minneapolis Cleaning Business Requirements

City of Minneapolis Business License

Minneapolis requires a general business license from the Department of Community Planning & Economic Development. Annual renewal is required. Fees vary by business type.

Minnesota Business Registration

Register your LLC or corporation with the Minnesota Secretary of State. Filing an LLC costs $155 online. You’ll also need to register for state tax obligations.

Sales Tax Compliance

Minnesota charges 6.875% state sales tax, plus a 0.5% Minneapolis city sales tax. Residential cleaning services are taxable in Minnesota — you must collect and remit sales tax on all residential cleaning.

General Liability Insurance

Essential in Minneapolis. The city’s high property values and professional client base mean most clients require proof of $1M coverage. Expect $500–$1,000/year.

Workers’ Compensation

Minnesota requires workers’ compensation insurance for all employers, even with just one employee. This is strictly enforced. Coverage is obtained through private insurers.

Paid Sick Leave

Minneapolis requires employers to provide paid sick and safe time — 1 hour for every 30 hours worked, up to 48 hours per year. Factor this into your labor costs.

Common Questions

Do I need a license to start a cleaning business in Minneapolis?
Yes. Minneapolis requires a general business license from the Department of Community Planning & Economic Development. You also need to register with the Minnesota Secretary of State and the Department of Revenue.
How much do Minneapolis cleaning businesses charge?
Standard house cleaning in Minneapolis averages $180 per visit, with deep cleaning averaging $345. Edina and Wayzata command premium rates. Recurring weekly clients typically pay $155 per visit.
Is residential cleaning taxable in Minneapolis?
Yes. Unlike many states, Minnesota charges sales tax on residential cleaning services. You must collect and remit 6.875% state sales tax plus 0.5% Minneapolis city tax on all residential cleaning jobs.
What’s the best area in Minneapolis to start a cleaning business?
Uptown and Northeast offer strong volume from young professionals. Kenwood, Lake of the Isles, and the southwest suburbs (Edina, Eden Prairie) provide premium-rate clients. Many successful businesses serve both markets.
Can MaidProfit help me manage teams across the Twin Cities?
Yes. MaidProfit is built for multi-zone operations across large metros. You can assign teams to Minneapolis, St. Paul, and suburban areas, optimize routes, and track everything from one dashboard.
How do Minneapolis winters affect cleaning businesses?
Winters actually boost demand. Tracked-in salt, slush, and mud keep homes dirtier, and the cold weather keeps people indoors more — making them more conscious of cleanliness. Spring deep cleaning season is also a major revenue period.
