Its $110 total, and we have an 1100 sq ft apartment. I swear I didn't know what clean meant until she came for the first time. My apartment was sparkling. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/house-cleaning-what-do-you-pay#post-1835555 Mon, 25 Aug 2014 16:10:44 +0000 lawbee11 1835555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: Umm that is crazy. Ours did a deep clean on the first visit and it did take way longer, but all subsequent visits have been shorter. So I could maybe see 4.5 hours once then less for other visits, but I don't know what they'd be doing for 4.5 hours for all visits. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/house-cleaning-what-do-you-pay#post-1835544 Mon, 25 Aug 2014 16:06:18 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1835544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheReelDeal: found this one on groupon.

I trust her completely and we have become very friendly over the years. I'm invested in her and her family and business.

It depends if you want to use a company (check Yelp) or a self employed cleaner (usually word of mouth). There are benefits to both. Were you thinking a one time service? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/house-cleaning-what-do-you-pay#post-1835309 Mon, 25 Aug 2014 14:37:04 +0000 youboots 1835309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$110 for our upper 2,000 sq ft every 3 weeks.

They charge $350 for 1-2,000 square feet. The cleaning woman charges $30/hr and will likely come for three hours twice a month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/house-cleaning-what-do-you-pay#post-1835185 Mon, 25 Aug 2014 14:00:24 +0000 lawbee11 1835185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Having a cleaning service is amazing...you will love it!</p> <p>We pay $80 bi-weekly for 2200 sq feet.
