Taxes shouldn’t be a guessing game. But for many cleaning business owners, that’s exactly what it feels like. You’re busy managing crews, handling client contracts, and keeping operations running—then tax season sneaks up, and suddenly, you’re scrambling.


You’re not alone. Many cleaning service businesses, commercial cleaning companies, and janitorial businesses end up paying more taxes than they should simply because they don’t have a clear tax strategy. The tax code is full of deductions and credits that could save you thousands—but only if you know how to take advantage of them.


At Straight Talk CPAs, we provide tax advisory services that help cleaning businesses lower their tax bills, maximize deductions, and avoid IRS surprises. No more last-minute stress. No more overpaying. Just a smarter way to handle taxes all year long.

Tax Planning Services for Cleaning Businesses

Why Most Cleaning Businesses Pay Too Much in Taxes

If you don’t have a tax advisory firm guiding you, chances are you’re leaving money on the table.

How many of these sound familiar?

Missing deductions on supplies and equipment?

From vacuums to work vans, every purchase should help lower your tax bill.

Using the wrong business structure?

LLC, S-Corp, or C-Corp—choosing the right one can save you thousands.

Not tracking expenses properly?

Lost receipts mean lost deductions.

Tax Planning That Works Year-Round—Not Just in April

Most accountants only show up at tax time. By then, it’s too late to do much except file what’s already happened. That’s not how we do things.

We work with you all year long through our tax advisory services to ensure you’re saving money before tax season even starts.

Here’s how we help:

  • Plan Your Tax Savings in Advance – No last-minute surprises. We estimate your taxes early so you can budget for them.
  • Deduct Equipment the Smart Way – Some cleaning tools and equipment should be written off immediately, while others should be spread out for bigger savings. We’ll help you choose the best approach.
  • Optimize Payroll & Contractor Taxes – Properly classify employees and independent contractors to avoid IRS penalties.
  • Multi-State & Local Tax Compliance – Expanding into new service areas? We handle the tax details so you stay compliant.
  • Find Tax Credits You’re Missing – Many cleaning businesses qualify for small business tax credits but never claim them. We make sure you take advantage of every opportunity.



With the right tax advisory firm supporting your business, tax season stops being stressful—and starts working in your favor.

No More Last-Minute Tax Panic
