Q3 Infographic
National Average
As shown on the infographic, the national average for cleaning a two-bedroom property is $68.41. This price has seen a two percent increase from the second quarter of the year. As the number of bedrooms increases, the cost of cleaning increases as well. In this case, we see that there is a twenty-dollar increase in average price from one-bedroom to two-bedroom.
Understanding the national average cost of cleaning can give you an idea of where your prices fall on the spectrum. If you find yourself paying your Airbnb cleaners under the average, consider adjusting prices to ensure fair compensation. If your prices are considerably higher, you may need to lower them in order to remain consistent.

Trends in Airbnb cleaning costs receive influence from various factors. First, cost-of-living in each individual state plays a role. Next, the demand for tourism also influences costs.
