Typical DMV price ranges for commercial cleaning & janitorial, what jobs actually cost, what moves the number, and how to read a quote. Market ranges, not estimates.
Typical price range: $0.06 to $1,200. Computed from DMV rate tables, never an AI guess. Size, access, and finish level move the number.
Office janitorial, 5×/week, per sq ft per month typically runs $0.11 to $0.25/sq ft/mo. Recurring contracts are quoted monthly per square foot; one-off deep cleans are quoted per job or per hour. These are market ranges for DC, Maryland and Northern Virginia, not quotes.
Frequency, the single biggest factor by a wide margin. Restroom count, which drives labour more than floor area does. Healthcare or lab space and its sanitisation protocol. Whether supplies and consumables are included. Security clearance or escort requirements in federal buildings.
