Simplify Your Minot Cleaning Business with MaidProfit
From downtown Minot to the south hill, Minot AFB to the Bakken corridor — MaidProfit helps Magic City cleaning companies serve this unique military and energy-driven market.
Why Minot’s Dual Economy Creates Cleaning Opportunity
Minot is northwestern North Dakota’s hub city, with a unique economy driven by Minot Air Force Base and proximity to the Bakken oil fields. The AFB’s 5,000+ military and civilian personnel create consistent demand — military families move frequently and need move-in/move-out cleaning, while the base itself requires commercial cleaning services.
The Bakken oil region, centered on Williston but extending through Minot’s service area, can drive premium rates during active drilling periods. Energy workers with high disposable income and limited time are willing to pay top dollar for home cleaning services.
With only about 95 cleaning businesses serving 30,000 households, Minot has minimal professional competition. A well-organized cleaning business with online booking and professional branding can quickly become the market leader.
Military Reliability + Energy Premiums
Minot AFB provides recession-proof base demand, while the energy sector adds premium-priced seasonal opportunities. This dual economy creates a uniquely resilient market for cleaning businesses.

What Minot Cleaners Charge
Minot rates are moderate with potential premium pricing during energy booms.
| Service | Price Range | Average |
|---|---|---|
| Standard House Cleaning | $95 – $195 | $135 |

| Office Cleaning (per sq ft) | $0.06 – $0.14 | $0.09 |

South hill homes and newer developments command the highest residential rates. Military base housing follows standard PCS cleaning pricing ($200–$400 per unit). Energy worker housing can command 20–40% premiums during active drilling.
