Our Light Bulb Moment: Cleaning Rates and Rate Sheets

When you've done something one way for years, it's easy to assume everyone does it that way. Building CleanSlate taught us otherwise.

Our own properties pay a flat fee for every cleaning, let's call it $100 per clean, and the cleaner gets paid. Simple. So that's how CleanSlate worked at first. Then one of our users billed by the hour, with a fee on top, so the total changed with how long each clean took. We built that in, and learned that far more cleaners work that way than we'd guessed.

There's no chart that tells you what to charge. Every cleaner lands on what works for them.

Here's what belongs in the number, and how to make it a decision you make once.

What moves the number

Start with the property: bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, how many guests, and how much gets touched between them. A studio is not a three-bedroom with a hot tub and linens for eight. A same-day turn, with the next guest arriving hours later, takes more urgency than a place that sits empty for a day or more.

Then what's included: laundry, restocking, trash, checking for damage. That's real time, so price it as real time, in the base rate or as its own line. And count the drive. A house twenty minutes off your route costs you more than one down the street.

Flat or hourly, set it once

Pick a flat or hourly rate for each property, then stop reworking it every time you invoice. In CleanSlate you set it once, and it shows up the same way on every invoice after that.

Change it when the job changes: a new bedroom, a hot tub, a same-day turn, or your own costs going up. Not in the middle of a text thread with someone waiting on an answer.

Our à la carte menu: the rate sheet

A sketched menu labelled Rate sheet: Pet fee $25, Deep clean $75, Laundry $20 and Grill cleaning $15 are checked, while Hot tub cleaning and Snow removal still say Set rate.

Most invoices have extras. That's what the rate sheet is for. It's your own menu of add-ons, like a pet fee, a hot tub clean or a deep clean, each at your price. Build it once and use it across your properties.

CleanSlate builds the invoice from your schedule. When it's time to finish it, tap the extras from your rate sheet, they're added in an instant, review it, and submit it to your host. That's it.

Set your rates once and let the invoice do the rest. Free for 75 days, no card required.

Perguntas frequentes

Should I charge a flat rate or by the hour?

Either works. Flat is easier for a host to predict; hourly fits jobs that vary a lot. CleanSlate handles both, property by property.

Should I charge more for a same-day turnover?

Yes, if it means moving faster or bringing help. Price that time.

Can I use one rate sheet for all my properties?

Yes. Build it once and apply it to any property you clean.
