What to put on a house cleaning invoice

Start with the base clean by the number of rooms, then put each extra on its own line.

  • your business name, phone and email
  • your customer's name and the address of the job
  • an invoice number and the date
  • each service and each part on its own line, with quantity and rate
  • any discount, tax and deposit already paid
  • the total, and how and by when to pay

What an invoice has to show can differ by state, so check what applies where you work. This is general information, not tax or legal advice.

What each line on this invoice is for

A cleaning price is a base clean plus extras. Put them on separate lines and customers stop asking what is included.

The base clean
The kind of clean and the size of the home: bedrooms, bathrooms and rough square feet.
Each extra
Inside the oven, inside the refrigerator: one line each, so the customer sees what each one added.
Extras by the piece
Interior windows are counted, with a price for each.

In the notes, write what the customer asked you to skip and anything you could not reach, so the next visit starts from the same picture.

Where cleaning paperwork goes wrong: extras folded into the base price. The customer then expects the oven every time. Keep the base clean on one line with the size of the home, and every extra on its own line, even when you do it at no charge.

House cleaning invoice questions

By the hour or a flat rate on a cleaning invoice?

Either. A flat price by the size of the home is easier for the customer. Hourly suits a first visit, when you do not know the home yet.

How do I bill a regular customer?

Invoice each visit, or send one invoice for the month with each visit on its own line and its date.

Where do extras go?

Each on its own line after the base clean, so the customer sees what the oven or the windows added.

What about a visit that was cancelled late?

If you charge a fee, say so before you start working together, and show it as its own line when it applies.

Should supplies be on the invoice?

Only if you charge for them apart from the clean. If they are part of your price, there is nothing to add.
