We previously reviewed the latest national report for one-bedroom vacation rental cleaning costs in the first quarter of 2021. Now, let’s take a look at the national statistics for a two-bedroom property.
Q1 2021 Cleaning Costs
The infographic below is compiled based on data collected from over 100,000 completed projects on the TurnoverBnB vacation rental cleaning platform from January 1-March 31, 2021.
National Average
The average vacation rental cleaning cost for a two-bedroom property nationwide in the first quarter of 2021 was $68.45. This price saw a decrease of nearly two percent compared to last quarter’s average.
Three-bedroom properties also decreased over last quarter, down over three percent with an average of $97.05 per cleaning. One-bedroom cleaning costs, on the other hand, increased slightly to $51.57 per unit.
