Raleigh Cleaning Company has announced a ninth Wake Weekly Best of the Best award in house cleaning. The honor is a community-voted recognition from The Wake Weekly, the Wake Forest-based weekly newspaper, in the in-home cleaning category.
Public business listings independently record the company as a Wake Weekly Best of the Best house cleaning winner in 2015, 2016, and 2017. Company materials published in 2026 still described the honor as eight consecutive years. The September announcement extends that company-reported streak to nine years. A 2026 winners list from The Wake Weekly was not located at the time this release was prepared, so the ninth year is reported as the company’s own announcement of the community vote.
Nina Hazelwood, Owner of Raleigh Cleaning Company, commented on the result. “Winning this award again is honestly something we never take for granted. We’re so thankful for the clients and community members who continue to support us year after year.”
Derek Hazelwood of Raleigh Cleaning Company pointed to the staff. “Nine years in a row really speaks to the consistency of our team. They show up every day ready to serve people well, and this recognition belongs just as much to them.”
The company, founded in 2014 and based in the Wake Forest area, provides residential cleaning in portions of Downtown Raleigh, East Raleigh, North Raleigh, Chapel Hill, Durham, Morrisville, Wake Forest, Rolesville, Franklinton, Youngsville, Zebulon, Knightdale, Wendell, and nearby communities. Its service menu includes weekly, bi-weekly, and every-four-week recurring cleanings, custom plans that can cover a full home or a selected portion of a home, and deep cleanings for move-in and move-out work, including details such as baseboards and ceiling fans. Green cleaning options are also offered.
Company materials list additional honors that should be attributed the same way. The homepage and related pages state that Raleigh Cleaning Company was named WRAL’s 2025 Best Residential Cleaning Company. A March 2026 company post states that the firm was featured on HGTV’s Love It or List It. Independent confirmation of those two placements on WRAL’s or HGTV’s own winner or episode pages was not found for this release. The same company pages also note News and Observer and Nextdoor recognition.
The Wake Weekly honor is described by the company as a customer-based community vote rather than a judged industry contest. That distinction matters for how the ninth year should be read: it reflects local reader participation over time, beginning with the documented 2015 through 2017 results and continuing, according to the company, through the latest cycle.
Ownership framed the latest vote as confirmation of routine work rather than a change in services or service area. Recurring visits remain the core of the schedule. Custom and move-related cleanings continue as separate options. The award announcement does not introduce a new program.
