Scheduled and special project pricing for commercial cleaning
We regularly survey BuyerZone users to ask how their purchases went. We've used their responses to provide an overview of actual prices paid for different levels of commercial cleaning services.
Commercial cleaning companies typically break their services down into two groups: scheduled cleaning and specialty cleaning. In order to request specialty cleaning projects, you must be under a scheduled cleaning contract.
Scheduled cleaning consists of day-to-day janitorial duties like trash pickup, mopping, vacuuming, window washing, and bathroom maintenance. The amount you'll pay will be based on the frequency of cleanings and number of services.
Specialty cleaning jobs take hours or days to perform and must be scheduled months in advance. Specialty cleaning includes deep cleaning jobs like external window washing or building scrubbing, or restoration projects like powerwashing floors and intense carpet cleaning.
Keep an eye out for other costs such as "first-time cleaning" fees which a cleaning company may charge if you're not under a long-term contract, or consumables and cleaning supplies if the vendor doesn't include them.
