Cleaning invoice template

Cleaning is usually recurring, so the invoice has to make it obvious which visits it covers. List the visits or the month's schedule, then any one-off extras, and a regular client can check the bill in seconds.

How to use the cleaning invoice

  1. Add the client and the property you clean.
  2. List visits by date, or bill the month at the agreed rate.
  3. Add extras such as oven or window cleaning on their own lines.
  4. Save; sign in to reissue the same invoice each month.

What to show on a cleaning invoice

  • The property address and, for offices, the floors or areas covered
  • Dates of each visit, or the month for contract cleaning
  • Hours or the fixed price per visit
  • One-off extras: deep clean, carpets, oven, windows, move-out
  • Supplies, if you charge for them separately
  • Payment due date and method

Pricing a cleaning job

Home cleaners usually charge by the hour or a flat price per visit; commercial cleaners price by floor area and frequency. Work out your hourly rate from what you need to earn divided by the hours you can actually bill once travel between jobs is taken out, then check that your flat prices still cover it.

Questions

Should I bill cleaning per visit or per month?

Weekly or fortnightly home clients are often billed per visit. Commercial contracts are usually a fixed monthly fee for an agreed schedule, with extras on top.

Is cleaning subject to sales tax?

In most US states residential cleaning is not taxed, but some states and cities tax cleaning services, particularly for commercial premises. Check locally.

What if the client cancels on the day?

Put a late-cancellation fee in your service agreement, often half or all of the visit price, and bill it on its own line when it applies.
