TL;DR

House cleaning in Los Angeles County typically ranges from $130 for a small apartment to $500+ for a large deep clean. Bi-weekly service in a 2-bedroom home is usually $150 to $220 per visit. Five factors drive the price: home size, service type, frequency, condition, and add-ons.

Here's how house cleaning is actually priced in Los Angeles County in 2026, based on our own book of business across Montrose, Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, and surrounding communities.

Standard house cleaning (recurring, bi-weekly)

  • 1-bedroom apartment: $130–$160
  • 2-bedroom home: $150–$220
  • 3-bedroom home: $200–$280
  • 4-bedroom home: $260–$360

Weekly service is roughly 10% cheaper per visit than bi-weekly. Monthly and one-time visits are 20–40% more expensive per visit.

Deep house cleaning (one-time)

  • 1-bedroom: $260–$350
  • 2-bedroom: $320–$500
  • 3-bedroom: $450–$700
  • 4-bedroom: $600–$900+

Deep cleans cost 2 to 3x more than a standard clean because they take 2 to 3x longer. See our comparison of deep cleaning vs regular cleaning.

Move-in / move-out cleaning

Similar to deep cleaning but with inside all cabinets, drawers, and closets included. Typically 10–15% more than a deep clean for the same home size.

Airbnb turnover

Priced per turnover, not per hour. Most 1-bedroom LA short-term rentals run $100–$150 per turnover including linens and restocking.

What actually drives the cost

Five factors, in order of importance:

  1. Home size — square footage and number of bathrooms
  2. Service type — standard, deep, move-in/out, Airbnb
  3. Frequency — recurring cadence lowers the per-visit rate
  4. Condition — homes that haven't been professionally cleaned in a while take longer
  5. Add-ons — inside oven ($25–$40), inside fridge ($25–$50), laundry (varies), interior windows (varies)

Why local pricing is what it is

Los Angeles County minimum wage is over $17/hour and rising. Insured, bonded cleaning services with background-checked cleaners can't sustainably charge less than roughly $50–$60 per cleaner-hour. Anything dramatically below that means uninsured workers, uninsured business, or bait-and-switch pricing.

How to get the best rate

  • Book bi-weekly — the biggest single discount available
  • Start with a deep clean — then a bi-weekly maintenance schedule is much cheaper long-term than repeat one-time visits
  • Bundle add-ons — inside oven + inside fridge together usually beats separate
  • Book the same cleaners every visit — they get faster in your home, and speed benefits both sides
