What to include in a cleaning invoice
- Service address and visit dates. Each date you cleaned at that address, so a client checking a month of visits can match the invoice to their calendar.
- Type of clean. Regular, deep or move-out clean named on each line, since they are priced differently and clients ask why one visit cost more.
- Rooms and tasks covered. Which rooms and tasks the visit includes, so a request for inside cabinets or the garage is visibly an extra.
- Add-on tasks. Carpets, upholstery, inside the oven or fridge, and interior windows as separate lines, each with its own price.
- Supplies and equipment. Products you brought, on their own line or noted as included, especially when a client asks for specific or unscented products.
- Cancellation and lockout fee. A charge for a visit you could not do because nobody was home or the key was missing, with the notice period that triggers it.
- Schedule and billing period. Weekly, every two weeks or monthly, and the dates the invoice covers, so a skipped or extra visit shows up straight away.
- Business license and insurance. Your business name, any local business license number, and whether you are bonded and insured, which homeowners handing over a key often ask.
