FOR COMMERCIAL CLEANING CONTRACTORS

Does the second building still pay after the drive?

The production-rate bid on the first site treats the van as already paid for. The second site adds a hop. Those minutes are loaded labor, and the extra fuel is a monthly direct cost. This page prices the new building the same way as the first, then puts the drive on the bill before you say yes.

The new building

Same method as the first-building calculator: cleanable square feet divided by the rate your crew really hits. Put only incremental equipment here — do not re-enter the first site’s truck.

The drive

One-way minutes from your current route — home or the first building — to this address. Trips per week is how often the crew actually goes, which can be less than cleans per week if they stack two sites in one night.
