Invoice Template for Cleaners
A cleaning invoice should list the visits or hours you're billing for, the address cleaned and any extras, with payment details customers can act on straight away. Invoice Today lets you create one for free and download it as a PDF, without an account.
Whether you clean homes weekly, do end-of-tenancy cleans or look after offices, the examples below show how to set your invoice out.
What to put on a cleaning invoice
- Your name or business name, address and email.
- The customer's name and billing address, and the property address if different.
- Invoice number, issue date and due date.
- The dates of the visits covered, or the period, such as "Weekly cleans, 1 to 28 June".
- Hours or a fixed price per visit.
- Extras such as oven cleaning, inside windows or carpet cleaning on their own lines.
- How to pay, for example bank transfer details in the notes.
Billing regular customers
For weekly or fortnightly customers, many cleaners send one invoice a month listing each visit. It's less admin for you and easier for the customer to pay in one go.
Use the quantity as the number of visits (or hours) and keep the description specific. Invoice Today doesn't create recurring invoices, so make a fresh one each period with the next invoice number.
Typical line items
Regular clean
"Regular clean, 3 hours, visits on 4, 11, 18 and 25 June" with quantity 4 and your per-visit price, or quantity 12 and your hourly rate.
One-off or deep clean
A fixed price for end-of-tenancy, after-builders or spring cleans, with a short summary of the scope.
Extras and supplies
Oven cleaning, fridge cleaning, laundry or specialist products you supplied. Separate lines help customers see why a bill is higher than usual.
