Frequently asked questions
How much does commercial cleaning cost in Washington?
A 10,000 square foot office cleaned five nights a week typically runs $2,300 to $2,800 a month in Washington, based on the local median janitor wage of $18.19 an hour. Medical offices and gyms cost more per square foot, and churches and warehouses cost less.
Is janitorial service the same as commercial cleaning?
