How this works
- A yearly cleaning is the usual starting point.
- More people, more pets and more loads mean more lint, so the interval shortens.
- Long runs with bends hold lint, so they are cleaned more often. Businesses should plan on a closer schedule and talk with us.

Cleaning Schedule questions
How often should a dryer vent be cleaned?
At least once a year is the usual starting point. Large households, pets and long runs with many bends may need it every six months. Our Cleaning Schedule tool gives a suggestion for your home.
How long does a cleaning take?
Many standard jobs take about an hour. A long run, a roof exit, a heavy clog or a multifamily building takes longer. We tell you what to expect before we start.
Do you take care of apartments and businesses?
Yes. We plan the work building by building, send resident notices, clean and photograph each vent and set up repeat schedules for apartments, laundromats, hotels and shared housing.
Want it scheduled for you?
We can set a yearly or twice-yearly plan and send a reminder before each visit.
