How Much Should I Be Paying For Cleaning Services?

Determining whether you are being charged correctly by the cleaning service you have employed to keep your workplace spick and span is actually a more difficult task then it seems. By taking the following factors into consideration, however, you should be able to get a pretty good idea of whether you are being overcharged for the services that you are receiving. Local Market – Take a moment to consider your own local market, as cleaning costs can vary widely across the country or even the city where you live. Make some enquiries to other services in your area to see what they are charging compared with the sorts of tasks that they undertake to make a comparison. Business Costs – Next, take a moment to consider the costs associated with the service actually running their business. They will have to cover their transportation, taxes, salaries, equipment, maintenance, insurance and any marketing that they undertake. On top of all these costs they will also need to make a profit.
