Square footage

Dirtiness is the main cost factor for a one-time cleaning.

Do It Cleaning charges $150$200 for a one-time cleaning of a 2,000- to 3,000-square-foot office space.
Ongoing service
After a walk-through, most cleaning companies offer a set price. Do It Cleaning’s set rates include the cost of labor and cleaning supplies as well as overhead costs such as insurance, worker’s compensation, payroll taxes and company vehicles.

Bathrooms and kitchen
