With a population of just under 6 million people, Colorado boasts many attractions from the great outdoors like Rocky Mountain National Park to emerging cities like Denver. Despite the major drop in tourism due to global pandemic restrictions, 2021 is progressing towards pre-COVID figures in the travel industry. In this article, we’ll highlight the average cleaning costs in Colorado from Q1 of 2021.

To illustrate this, we’ve compiled an infographic displaying the latest findings of vacation rental cleaning costs in Colorado. This data has been curated from thousands of Airbnb cleaning projects completed on the Turno Marketplace.
