I wanted to start a cleaning business that cleans office buildings and commercial spaces, and I needed to know the basics of what I would need to get it going (ie. Licenses, insuance, tax id numbers) and how much those things might cost. If anyone know anything about this I would greatly appreciate it!

As a beginning CCR, I would suggest that you review a few sites that pertain to Janitorial services such as www.thejanitorialstore.com. There is a lot of very beneficial information there and you can research their archives or ask questions. There is a small charge for this site but well worth it... I have no affiliation with this site at all, but it is great for finding answers to cleaning questions and giving you detailed information that you may need.

Also, in the 'search box' on top of your thread here, insert questions such as 'janitorial', 'cleaning' 'commercial cleaning', 'bonding', 'insurance', etc. This will also get you a ton of information already discussed on this site.

After you review this site and have any further questions, please come back and I would be happy to answer any questions that you may have.
