We employ over 40 cleaners at our Winnipeg location who enjoy fulltime hours while earning $19 to $23 per hour. On average, our cleaners have been with us for 4.5 years.
Take Time has been operating for over 17 years. We have built a successful, stable, organized and positive workplace.

PLEASE NOTE: Take Time operates independently. We are in No Way connected to or collaborate with other cleaning companies and we never have.

We have been made aware that competitors, frequently on this site (not a franchise owner), might be spreading false information about us in order to discourage applicants from applying. We will take legal action if true. Come see for yourself.

Believe Google and don’t miss out on the best cleaning job in the industry. 🙂

Important Tips

Always ask: what is my starting rate day 1. Some ads are deceiving.
Don’t accept a job unless you have received the offer by email first.
Don’t sign a Non-Compete form. They are sometimes used to intimidate employees.

FACT: There has never been a court case in Manitoba where a cleaning company has successfully sued a cleaner over a non-compete. Never! Fact check me by looking it up for yourself. “The law has long confirmed that non-compete clauses, like other post-employment restrictions on employees that curb their ability to make a living, are presumed to be unenforceable…” see online Taylor McCaffrey Legal Firm in Winnipeg.

At Take Time, intimidating employees is not in our company culture. Employees stay because they value their job. If they don’t, they’re free to leave. Take Time does not require a non-compete.

Eight Important Questions That You Should Ask When Applying With Any Cleaning Company:

What is my Starting Rate Day 1 and What is the highest rate that I can aspire to? We pay $19/$21 per hour starting Day One of training. Cleaners will always make $19/$21 per hour as the minimum rate. You are paid at the same rate while on the clock whether driving, cleaning, meetings at our office. We provide a large bonus increase at 12 months for those who qualify. This bonus is a significant increase in your earnings. Note: Advertised starting rate does not always mean Day 1 starting rate. Training is often paid at a lower rate than advertised. We offer a Day 1 starting rate of $19/$21 per hour and our highest rate is $23 per hour and you are paid the same rate whether you are cleaning, driving, attending meetings, etc.
Do I have to go to the office before work and again at the end of the day? Enjoy the extra sleep. You will see your schedule every morning in your app. You leave from home, complete your jobs, you’re done for the day. No need to return to the office at the end of your day when you’re tired or need to pick up kids. You come to the office once a week to replenish supplies.
Are company cars available? Yes our top tier level enjoys daily use of a company car and are not required to share the ride with co-workers all day.
Am I responsible for managing client keys? What happens if I lose a key? Key access is rarely assigned to cleaners. No worries!
Will I be paid for ACTUAL hours that I work? Absolutely! You’re paid for ALL time on the clock. If more time is required to complete a job, the office must be contacted so we can get permission from the client and you are paid for it.
Will I be required to wash dirty laundry at home? All dirty laundry is professionally laundered. Clean sets are provided for you every week.
Will I have to buy my own vacuum and pay for its maintenance? We provide all equipment and maintenance.
What type of vacuum will I be using. Quality Shark upright vacs that are light and kind to your body alignment. No heavy, awkward backpack vacuums where you risk damage to your back. (we understand it can also be a problem with knocking pictures off walls and items off tables behind you lol) AI Overview says: “Backpack vacuums cause back pain and spinal strain primarily because poor weight distribution, improper harness adjustment, and excessive machine weight pull the spine out of its natural alignment.” While wearing these, movement often loosens the harness causing spinal misalignment and sometimes leading to long term back issues.

Employee Testimonials

Joanne L.

I have been with Take Time for a year now and I have no complaints at all. The staff is amazing and the clients are great. Everything that was offered to me when I started has been consistent. Wage is great. Full time hours are always there. Everything you need is supplied by the company and you get paid travel time between houses and office time etc. is paid for. It’s been a great year I love my job! I won’t be leaving this company.

Joanne, formerly of Signature

I’m giving this review because this company deserves it 100%. I have only been here a short time and have nothing at all negative to say about Take Time. The wages are so great the best in the whole city I’m sure. I went from 17 to 19 to 21 per hour in less then 3 months, whaaaaaat. Yeah that’s right people, I’m good at what I do so that helped. The staff is great and super friendly there is absolutely no drama here unlike the other places I’ve worked. The clients are great and plentiful. The benefits at Take Time are very cool and offered to you after only 4 weeks. You do not have to go to the office everyday usually only once a week and they do their best to give you clients in and around the area you live in. Everything is open and honest at Take Time no hidden anything only straight answers. You can write stuff off at tax season gas phone etc. I think I’ve summed up this awesome place to work and no I’m not being paid 20 dollars to say this. Good luck my cleaning friends hope to see you soon

Janna

Nearly 12 months with Take Time and I can honestly say it’s so nice to work in an environment where we all care about the level of service we are providing for our clients. The staff are friendly and respect each other. Cindy is hands down the Best and kindest employer that I have EVER worked for. If you are looking for a great job–this is IT!

Janna, formerly of Signature Cleaning

This company gives a busy woman like me the freedom to work in a fun and independent position. The staff are all great people and Cindy works with you personally from day one to help ensure that you are set up for success. Best job EVER.

Jamie, formerly of Molly Maid

Working for take time has been by far one of the best company’s I have ever worked for. Not only are the staff and owner of the company wonderful people, but the pay is amazing too. Take time pays their staff the best out of any other cleaning company in the city, I just recently received my 12 month $2 per hour raise and am now up to 21 dollars an hour. They also offer a lot of cool benefits, working incentives and competitions within the company. Around Christmas I won $500 from a contest they had going on. So if anyone is looking for a great place to work, I highly recommend joining the take time family.

Tammy, formerly of Signature Cleaning

Upon looking for a job, I came across Take Time. I’ve been here for a little while and I absolutely love the environment I am in. There is no need for a gym membership as we are working hard everyday and seeing the results of our hard work. I would recommend this job to anyone looking for a fast paced and positive working environment with great pay.

Tia formerly of Signature Cleaning

I previously worked for another cleaning company and was not happy with my situation, however after coming to Take Time I am enjoying my job again! The best qualities of Take Time are the pleasant staff, the great pay, and the amazing customers! I would recommend take time to anybody that loves a quick paced environment that makes the time fly by and a friendly office staff that puts a smile on your face everyday!
