Falmouth is one of the Greater Portland communities served by the Portland Water District, and it is known for the water just as much as the houses. TotalCare Cleaning will service Falmouth as part of Greater Portland, including West Falmouth and the area around Foreside Road.

A town on the water

Falmouth's Town Landing off Foreside Road is recognized as the largest recreational anchorage and mooring field in Maine. For a lot of households that means boat gear, wet shoes and salty clothes passing through the mudroom in summer, which is a small but real part of keeping the house clean here.

The town also runs its own systems, including a pay as you throw curbside trash program and parking rules for winter.

Larger family homes

About 81 percent of Falmouth housing units are single family detached homes, about 39 percent have four or more bedrooms, and the median home was built in 1986. A house of that age has had nearly forty years for ceiling fans, vents and window tracks to collect a real layer, and it often has several bathrooms and a big kitchen.

A One-Time Deep Clean catches those up, and a bi-weekly Recurring House Clean tends to suit a busy family after that. Larger homes land on higher rows of the price table. If you are moving, the Moving Clean adds the inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets.

Trash and parking rules worth knowing

Falmouth requires town carts and official yellow Town of Falmouth trash bags, set out by 7 am. On cleaning day, household trash is bagged for your own bin, so keep a supply of the official bags where a cleaner can find them.

The town prohibits parking on town roads from midnight to 6 am between November 15 and April 15, and whenever a storm parking ban is declared. Keep that in mind for guests or a moving truck, and clear your drive after a storm, so that anyone coming during the day has somewhere to park.

If you rent out your place

Since January 1, 2022, Falmouth has required every short-term rental of less than 30 consecutive days to be registered with the town, with an annual fee and renewal by January 1. Check that before you list. A regular turnover checklist and an occasional deep clean will help keep things simple for a rental.

The Portland Water District supplies very soft water, at 7.2 milligrams per liter, so soap film is more likely than mineral crust on the shower glass. Using less soap helps, and so does a squeegee.

Frequently Asked Questions

Falmouth requires town carts and official yellow Town of Falmouth trash bags, set out by 7 am. Household trash gets bagged for your own bin, so leave a few official bags where your cleaner can find them. Cleaners do not take trash away with them.
About 39 percent of Falmouth units have four or more bedrooms, and homes here tend to have more bathrooms too. The table is the same one used across Greater Portland, based on bedrooms, bathrooms and square footage, so size is the only reason for the difference.
Yes. Since January 1, 2022, Falmouth has required every short-term rental of less than 30 consecutive days to be registered with the town, with an annual fee and renewal by January 1. Check current details with the town before you list a property.
Usually, yes. The median Falmouth home was built in 1986, so fans, vents and window tracks have had decades to gather dust, and they rarely get done in normal housekeeping. One deep clean brings them up to date. A regular plan then keeps the rest of the house steady.
