"Hi, my name is [Your Name] — I'm the owner of Gateway EVs Cleaning. We specialize in estate and transition cleaning for probate and trust situations. I spent 25 years in hospital environmental services — clinical-grade cleaning is literally all I've done my entire career. I wanted to stop by and introduce myself because I know estate cleanup is one of those things that can really slow down a case if the right people aren't in place."
Study Note
Lead with your credential — 25 years hospital EVS. That's your differentiator. Most cleaning companies can't say that. Say it with confidence, not apology.
"What I've found is that attorneys and trust officers need a cleaning partner who understands discretion, who can work around estate timelines, and who won't create more problems than they solve. We handle biohazard situations, hoarding conditions, and standard estate cleanouts — all with the same clinical standards I used in the hospital. We're fully insured, OSHA-trained, and we document everything so you have a clean paper trail."
Study Note
Speak their language: discretion, timelines, documentation, insured. These are the words that make a probate attorney's ears perk up. You're not selling cleaning — you're selling a problem removed from their desk.
If they say "We already have someone we use…"
"That's great — I'm not here to replace anyone. I just want to be your backup option for the situations that need a clinical level of care. Sometimes a standard cleaning company isn't equipped for what an estate actually needs. I'd just like to be the name you have on file when that comes up."
If they say "We handle that internally / the family handles it…"
"Absolutely — and sometimes that works perfectly. But when a family is grieving and the property needs professional-grade attention, having a trusted referral ready can actually protect you and make the process smoother for everyone. I'd just like to leave you my information in case that situation ever comes up."
Study Note
Never argue. Never push. Your goal is to be the name on file — not to win the conversation today. Lower the stakes and they'll let you leave the brochure.
"I have a brochure here that outlines exactly what we do for estate situations — it's a quick read. And here's my card. If you ever have a property that needs this kind of attention, I'd love to be your first call. Is there a better person in the office I should also leave a card with?"
Study Note
The last question is gold — it gets you a second name in the same office without asking for a sale. Always ask it. The answer is often the paralegal or office manager who actually makes the referral call.
"Hi, this is [Your Name] with Gateway EVs Cleaning — we specialize in estate and transition cleaning for probate situations. I have 25 years of hospital environmental services experience and I work with attorneys and trust officers throughout the St. Louis area. I'd love to introduce myself and drop off some information. You can reach me at 314-338-5029 — that's 314-338-5029. Thank you and have a great day."
Study Note
Say your number twice, slowly. Always. They're usually driving or multitasking. If they have to replay it, they won't call back.
You are not asking for a favor. You are offering a solution to a real problem they face regularly. Probate attorneys deal with difficult properties all the time — hoarding, neglect, biohazard, grief-stricken families who can't face the cleanup. You are the professional who removes that burden. Walk in like you belong there, because you do.
Your credential
25 years hospital EVS. Clinical-grade. No one else in the room can say that.
Your ask
Be the name on file. That's it. Not a contract. Not a commitment. Just a card in a drawer.
Your follow-up
Return in 3–4 weeks. Bring a small branded notepad or sticky notes. Stay visible.
Detach & Leave Behind
Print this page separately and leave it with your brochure. It's written for the attorney or trust officer to read after you leave — not for you to read aloud.
Gateway EVs Cleaning
A note for probate attorneys and trust officers
We come from the hospital, not the cleaning aisle.
Gateway EVs Cleaning was founded by a 25-year veteran of hospital Environmental Services — the department responsible for infection control, biohazard remediation, and clinical-grade sanitation in acute care settings. That background isn't a marketing line. It means we approach every property with protocols, documentation, and a standard of care that most residential cleaning companies simply don't have.
We understand what probate situations actually require.
Estate properties come with complications — deferred maintenance, hoarding conditions, biohazard concerns, and families who are grieving and overwhelmed. We handle all of it with discretion, professionalism, and zero drama. We work around your timeline, coordinate with family representatives when needed, and provide documentation you can include in the estate file. Our goal is to make your referral easy and your client's experience dignified.
Two services built specifically for estate and probate work.
Estate Transition Cleaning is our comprehensive service for properties being prepared for sale, transfer, or disposition — including deep cleaning, biohazard handling, and estate-ready presentation. Transition Reset Cleaning is a thorough reset for properties that need to be cleared, sanitized, and made presentable quickly. Both services are priced by consultation so we can assess the actual scope before committing to a number — no surprises for you or the estate.
We make your referral look good.
When you refer a vendor to a grieving family, your reputation is on the line. We take that seriously. We are fully insured, OSHA-trained, and HIPAA-aware. We communicate clearly, show up when we say we will, and leave the property better than we found it — every time. We'd be honored to be the name you keep on file for situations that need this level of care.
