Airbnb Cleaning Fee Calculator
A cleaning fee should cover the real cost of a turnover without scaring off short stays. This shows the fee and how much it adds to each night of an average stay.
Results
How it works
Fee = (cleaner + laundry + supplies) x (1 + buffer). Per night = fee / average stay.
FAQ
Is the cleaning fee taxable?
Rules on which charges are taxable are set by the state and local tax offices. Confirm with SCDOR or your county before you file.
Why add a buffer?
Turnovers run long, linens wear out and prices rise. A small buffer keeps the fee from losing money.
Should short stays pay more?
The per-night figure shows how heavy the fee feels. Some hosts set a minimum stay instead of raising the fee.
