How much are you paying for airbnb cleaning?

Question

Curious what fellow BiggerPockets members are paying to have the unit turned over for airbnb cleaning? Also how are you handling washing/changing sheets?

Hi Henry. I have three 3/2's that sleep 7 each. They also have garages converted into game rooms with pool tables, and grill/patio areas. We pay $80 - $120 depending on depth of clean. Sometimes as high as $140 for the occasional deeper clean or after a long stay. We charge the guests $95 cleaning fee. Our housekeeper also functions as a cohost and helps us respond to guest requests when we are unavailable, so she is worth every penny. We are lucky to live within two doors of all our houses, so honestly she uses our washer and dryer as well as the ones in the homes when she turns the units. And there is a closet in our personal home devoted to Airbnb stock. Eventually we will have to figure out a more professional way to do this! But for now it works!

@Henry Lazerow Depends on lots of factors. Sq footage, # of beds, pets allowed, # of bathrooms, outdoor features like pools or outdoor kitchens. My 1 bedroom, 900sqft, no pets is $50, 3/2 with pets allowed $100. I have 2 sets of sheets and they will either wash on site if they have time or take them and wash them at their facility and put the other set on the beds. Towels are washed on site.
