Furthermore, the high-cost states often see a higher demand for travel and tourism. The states with the highest cost of cleaning typically have a higher cost of living than other states. Moving on, we’re going to look at the states with the highest and lowest cost of vacation rental cleaning. However, some changes in price can stem from macroeconomic influences like inflation or change in demand. There is not one single factor that influences the cost of cleaning. In fact, the cost of cleaning a three-bedroom property has risen by six whole percentage points. This number has seen a relatively dramatic increase from the second quarter of the year.
As shown on the infographic, the national average cost of cleaning for a 3 bedroom property is $97.46. For the sake of this article, we are going to focus strictly on the 3 bedroom properties. You simply don't have enough business to get the going labor rate so end up paying a premium for the flexibility on the limited help being requested.Underneath the map is the national average cleaning costs for different properties (one-bedroom, two-bedrooms, and three-bedrooms). Sure if you could gurantee $25/hr for 40 hours a week (or whatever is the going labor rate in the area), then you could likely find someone no problem, but you're not after that. Once the pandemic shut down a lot of the business and no one was hiring cleaners, people moved on to other options for work. Ultimately this requires additional overhead, coordination of schedules to accommodate your workload and flexibility.Īnd given the choice, people are moving to more stable work options too. So they have to find someone else beyond the initial client list and it becomes much more variable. Maybe someone has booked three separate guests in one week, maybe you have a guest staying two weeks so you don't need a cleaner for this week. Now imagine this individual trying to coordinate 10 different properties in a given week.īut more realistically, not everyone is doing weekly turnovers so each listing will change. Assume they want to work 40 hours, so that's 10 clients at 4 hour each. That is not enough for anyone to live off of, so presumably the cleaner needs to take on more clients. So you effectively pay someone $100 a week on the four hours of work. Not sure your turnover frequency, but assume it's weekly. Look at it from the cleaner's perspective.
