Apartment Cleaning Cost: Studio to 4-Bedroom Price Guide
24 25 Cleaners

Apartment cleaning costs $160–$400+ depending on unit size — studio apartments start at $160 while four-bedroom units run $270 and up for a standard clean.

Apartment cleaning costs $160–$220 for a studio or one-bedroom unit on a standard recurring basis, $190–$280 for a two-bedroom, $230–$340 for a three-bedroom, and $270–$400+ for a four-bedroom apartment. Deep cleans and move-out cleans for the same sizes run approximately 50–80% higher. These are realistic market rates for licensed, insured professional cleaning companies in Seattle, Bellevue, Los Angeles, and Orange County — not the artificially low prices quoted by uninsured solo operators.

Apartment cleaning presents a different set of challenges than house cleaning. High-rise and mid-rise buildings have shared hallways, elevators, and parking — all of which affect how efficiently a cleaning team can bring equipment in and out. Many apartment buildings require service providers to check in with building management, use service entrances, or work within specific hours. 24 25 Cleaners is experienced with apartment building logistics in both urban Seattle/Bellevue and Los Angeles markets and handles all of this as standard procedure.

Studio apartments are the most affordable to clean professionally — typically $160–$200 for a standard recurring clean. Despite their small footprint, studios require the same attention to kitchens and bathrooms as larger units, and the compact layout means surfaces are closer together and need just as much detail work per square foot. A studio in a high-rise building in downtown Seattle or Koreatown Los Angeles receives the same level of professional attention from 24 25 Cleaners as a large home in the suburbs.

One-bedroom and one-bathroom apartments run $160–$220 for standard recurring cleaning. The price varies based on square footage (a 650-square-foot one-bedroom costs less than a 1,100-square-foot one-bedroom), condition, and how recently the apartment was last professionally cleaned. First-time cleans and apartments that have not been professionally cleaned in over two months are best started with a deep clean ($250–$500) before moving to a recurring standard schedule.

Two-bedroom apartments are the most common size 24 25 Cleaners services. Standard recurring cleaning runs $190–$280 per visit. Two-bedroom apartments in Seattle and Los Angeles tend to run 900–1,300 square feet, and pricing reflects this range. Homes at the smaller end of this range with two people and no pets sit at the lower price point; larger two-bedrooms with children or pets accumulating more mess sit at the higher end. Deep cleaning a two-bedroom apartment runs $400–$800.

Three- and four-bedroom apartments exist primarily in larger complexes, townhome-style buildings, and luxury high-rises. Standard recurring cleaning for a three-bedroom apartment runs $230–$340, and a four-bedroom runs $270–$400+. At this size, apartments often have multiple bathrooms that each require full cleaning attention, larger kitchen footprints, and more floor space to vacuum and mop. 24 25 Cleaners sends appropriately sized teams — typically two professionals — for three- and four-bedroom apartment cleans.

Move-out apartment cleaning is one of the most common specific requests 24 25 Cleaners receives. Apartment leases almost universally require the unit to be professionally cleaned before move-out, and landlords in Seattle and Los Angeles are strict about this standard. Move-out cleaning for an apartment includes inside all appliances, inside all cabinets, all bathrooms fully scrubbed, baseboards, closet interiors, and all floors. Carpet cleaning can be bundled in — ask about package pricing when you call.

Condo cleaning follows the same pricing structure as apartment cleaning. The difference is primarily ownership — condo owners are more likely to invest in recurring professional cleaning because they own the space and have a long-term interest in its condition. Condo-specific considerations include high-end finishes (marble countertops, hardwood floors, custom cabinetry) that require appropriate care. 24 25 Cleaners trains cleaners on proper surface care for premium materials common in higher-end Seattle and Los Angeles condos.
