Merry Maids was founded in 1979
in Omaha, Nebraska by Dallen
Peterson. Dallen worked with his
family to create the Merry Maids
system and franchise the
company. |
|
|
|
In 1988, ServiceMaster purchased
Merry Maids from the Petersons.
All of the ServiceMaster
companies specialize in home
services, so Merry Maids has
been a natural fit for
ServiceMaster from the
beginning. Some of our sister
companies in our Family of
Brands include Terminix,
TruGreen, ServiceMaster Clean
and American Home Shield. |
|
|
|
The Merry Maids view of family
and values also aligned with
ServiceMaster's corporate
objectives. We honor God in all
that we do, excel with
customers, help people develop
and grow profitably. |
|
|
|
ServiceMaster operates more than
75 Merry Maids branches
throughout the United States. As
Merry Maids has grown, our core
values remain the heart of what
we do and who we are. As an
example, many of the franchise
owners who purchased territories
in the early years have included
their children in their
businesses, and continue to work
themselves. Merry Maids also
encourages career growth.
Several branch managers began
their careers as team members. |

In 1973, our corporate
headquarters were established in
East Lansing, Michigan operating
as TruGreen. With the success
of our lawn care services,
ServiceMaster® decided to
acquire TruGreen in 1990, after
which we then moved our
headquarters to Memphis,
Tennessee to join the
ServiceMaster family of brands.
ServiceMaster officially
acquired ChemLawn in 1992,
making our business unit the
largest professional lawn care
provider in the nation. It
immediately began operating as
TruGreen, doing business as
TruGreen.Combined with our
commercial services business
unit, TruGreen LandCare,
TruGreen has become the world's
largest lawn and landscape
company serving more than 3.4
million residential and
commercial customers across the
U.S. with lawn care, tree and
shrub care, and landscaping
services.
As the current industry leader,
we've continued to lead in the
development of new technology
for lawn care. TruGreen devotes
substantial resources to
continually evaluate new
products and equipment and to
develop better methods for
taking care of grass, trees, and
shrubs. All of our lawn
specialists are tenured
full-time employees who must
complete a rigorous training
program before they can be
certified by TruGreen. |
| |
|
Additionally, we have taken an
active leadership role in both
developing and supporting sound
environmental practices and
regulatory policies. TruGreen is
committed to environmentally
responsible practices and
products, and we have
established our own set of
environmental stewardship
principles. |
