Cleaning fee price range

How much are you charging for a cleaning fee? I’d like to add one to my listing but have no idea of the range.
Thank you!

We were doing $75, but thinking $125 now with more careful sanitizing. Our space is 1,900 sq ft and we have to do a thorough clean before and after.

It can vary with the event, parties with food and alcohol are the worst. But that said, we had a company meeting in the space, so you assume minimal cleaning after (pre-COVID). By the trash bin, it looked like people we tossing their coffee from across the room, splattered all over the wall. White wall, had to clean and paint.

I think it depends on the city and on the size of your place. Ours is in Seattle which is more expensive. It is 2400 Sq feet and when we hire a cleaner to come they charge us $175 so that is the fee I charge. You may want to hire a cleaner to come once and then use that amount as your cleaning fee amount for your listing.

I’ve always charged $150. I would actually like to raise it, but am not sure how it will be received.

Depends on the size and time you spend on average.
Our studio is smallish at 700sq’, and I charge $50 “cleaning” fee. And I put that word in quotes, because I think it should be called “setup/cleanup fee” since half my time is spent setting up stuff for the rental. A “cleaning” fee, makes it sound like they can trash our place and we need to be their maid to clean up after them.
