There are a number of things I don’t really want to make time for over the busy summer months.

You know, stuff many Capetonians can relate to – waiting for a table at a restaurant you can normally waltz straight into, looking for parking at pretty much any beach on the peninsula, or dealing with the aftermath of a bender that wound up back at your house.

The saying goes ‘there’s an app for that now’, and when it comes to hiring a cleaning professional that’s finally true.

We told you about the team over at Domestly last month (HERE), who are in the business of connecting busy people to trusted cleaners. Their app was crowned MTN App of the Year 2016, and if you’re used their services yet you’ll know exactly why.

Within three minutes of opening the app you can hire trusted and affordable background-checked cleaning professionals, for as early as the next day.

Now with the holidays approaching, they’re keen to make sure that we spend time with our family and friends, rather than inside doing the laundry.

Domestly have put together two home holiday hampers for two lucky winners to ensure the festive period stays that way.

Each of those is valued at over R10 000 and will contain:

Each hamper is valued at over R10 000 and consists of the following great prizes:

• A Kamado Jan Jnr Braai with accessories
• @Home gift card valued at R1 500
• Domestly Cleaning voucher valued at R1 500
• A year’s subscription to SA Home Owner Magazine.

Bear in mind that a cleaning voucher to the value of R1 500 is basically eight or nine half day cleans for your home, depending on which cleaner you choose, with each setting their own rates.

Entering is pretty easy, too. Lets run through those steps:

• Like their Facebook page (HERE)
• Follow the competition link provided to enter (https://t.co/ThOU6usAPQ)
• Share with friends and family to increase your chances of winning.

Yeah, that’s it.

Not a fan of apps? Old school is cool to, because you can still sort out all your cleaning needs on the desktop site too.

Make hay while the sun shines and land yourself a killer hamper – hey, the festive season is living up to its name.

The service is currently available in Cape Town, Jozi and Pretoria, with plans for Durban early next year.
