There’s a growing cottage industry around ways to make cleaning your house even easier. Apps and websites like Handy, TaskRabbit, and Thumbtack offer ways to set up this service without even having to talk to another human first. Despite this, many millennials are still reluctant to use a housecleaning service themselves. It can be seen as a an unnecessary luxury, or something that’s easier to just do yourself. But there are some who swear by their regular house cleanings. It can be easy to see why: With work weeks growing longer , it can be hard to find time to do a good deep clean yourself, even with the aid of modern appliances. “With two dogs and both of us traveling for work, we want to enjoy what little free time we get,” explains Hannah Bowers. A newlywed, Bowers found that many of her friends already employed a cleaning service of some kind. The thing she kept hearing? Having one is a “marriage saver.” In fact, many of the millennials I found who employ a regular cleaning service were married or in serious relationships. Kathleen Harrison first started using one after she graduated from law school and found herself with more disposable income. “During law school I would be annoyed if [my husband] didn't want to clean or didn't clean in a way that was up to my standards (and vice versa). Now we don't have that issue,” she says. While being in a long-term relationship may be one reason, conflict alone might not be the only explanation. “My apartment with [my finacé] Jake feels more like an adult home,” former R29 staffer Julie Bogen tells me. Before they moved in, she didn’t care about her old apartment enough to invest in regular cleaning.
