Upper St. Clair is a home rule township in the South Hills, about 11 miles south of downtown Pittsburgh. It counted 21,160 residents and 7,887 housing units in 2020, a smaller population than its neighbor Mt. Lebanon.

When TotalCare Cleaning comes to the South Hills, Upper St. Clair will be included in the Pittsburgh area service with the same flat price table by home size.

From streetcar stop to postwar suburb

The township's first major housing development came in 1913 along Washington Road near the streetcar. The biggest jump came after the war: the population rose from 3,629 in 1950 to 8,287 in 1960, more than doubling in a decade, and reached 21,160 by 2020.

That timing shapes the housing. Mt. Lebanon's growth peaked in the 1920s; Upper St. Clair's came in the postwar years and after, so a much larger share of its homes date from the second half of the century. About 9 percent of the township, roughly 733 acres across 14 parks, is parkland and fields.

What Upper St. Clair homes need

If your home is one of the larger ones, the work shifts toward square footage: more bathrooms, more hard floor and more stairs. A house with a finished basement and an entry from the garage takes a different plan than a city row house, starting at the busiest entry and working outward.

Fields are part of daily life. With 733 acres of parks and fields across the township, cleats, bags and wet gear come through the back door for much of the year. A boot tray and a mat at that door, plus a regular clean of the entry and the laundry area, keep field mud from reaching the kitchen.

For homes from the 1950s and 1960s, the EPA's lead paint advice still applies. Houses built before 1978 are more likely to have lead paint, and where it is chipping, the agency recommends HEPA vacuums and no dry sweeping.

Leaves in paper bags on set dates

Upper St. Clair collects yard waste and leaves in paper bags only, on set dates: one in April, then late October, several Saturdays through November and one in early December. Between those dates, leaves sit in bags on driveways and in garages, and their dust tracks into the house.

Fall is the time to keep the garage entry swept and the mudroom floor clean. A One-Time Deep Clean after the last leaf pickup, in early December, resets the house before the holidays.

Trash, bulk items and water

Each household gets one township cart for weekly trash and one for recycling every other week, plus up to two bulk items once a month. Cleaners bag household trash and leave it in your cart, but they do not move furniture or large items. Plan bulk pickups before a move-out or a big clean-out.

Water in the township comes from Pennsylvania American Water, not Pittsburgh Water, so its reports and service notices come from that utility. Spots on shower glass still build up wherever water dries, and the deep clean treats glass for hard water spots and details faucets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Upper St. Clair Cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

Yes. Upper St. Clair will be part of the Pittsburgh area service, along with nearby Mt. Lebanon and Bethel Park. Homes will be priced on the same table by bedrooms, bathrooms and square footage.
The township collects yard waste and leaves in paper bags only on set dates, with one in April and the rest from late October through early December. Check the public works page each year for the exact days, and keep entries clean while the bags wait.
No. Cleaners bag household trash for your carts but do not carry furniture or large items. Upper St. Clair takes up to two bulk items once a month, so schedule that before a move or a deep clean.
The township lists Pennsylvania American Water as the water company for its residents. Questions about water quality or service go to that utility rather than Pittsburgh Water.
Price rises with bedrooms, bathrooms and square footage, so a large home lands on a higher row of the table. The cost page shows all five rows. Recurring visits after a first deep clean keep the per-visit price at its lowest.
