How Cleaniko works

Cleaniko is the smarter way to book trusted local cleaners across New Zealand. Whether you need a spotless home or want to grow your cleaning business, our mobile app connects verified independent cleaners with Kiwi households seamlessly and securely.

Booking a cleaner in a few simple steps

Getting your home cleaned has never been easier. Start by downloading the Cleaniko app and posting your cleaning job. Choose your required service, property type, specific tasks, condition, add photos, set your preferred schedule, location, and budget. Once reviewed and published, local cleaners send through offers. Review their profiles, select the cleaner that suits your needs, complete payment, and confirm your booking.

Becoming an active cleaner on Cleaniko

Looking for cleaning work in your area? Download the app and select 'I am a cleaner' to set up your profile. We guide you through verifying your identity, completing a right to work check, submitting a police background check, sharing your references and experience, and confirming your insurance. Agree to our terms, submit your application for review, and once approved you will be fully verified, active, and ready to pick up local jobs.

Safety, trust, and simple payments

We provide total peace of mind for both customers and cleaners across Christchurch and throughout New Zealand. Every verified cleaner undergoes comprehensive police background checks and carries insurance. You can review genuine community ratings before making any decision, and customers pay directly to the cleaner for a transparent, stress-free experience from start to finish.
