With just under 30 million people, Texas boasts a wide selection of museums, outdoor attractions, and theme parks. Despite the major drop in tourism due to global pandemic restrictions, 2021 is progressing towards pre-COVID figures in the travel industry. In this article, we’ll highlight the average cleaning costs in Texas from Q1 of 2021.
To illustrate this, we’ve compiled an infographic displaying the latest findings of vacation rental cleaning costs in Texas. This data has been curated from thousands of Airbnb cleaning projects completed on the TurnoverBnB Marketplace.

Historical Average
Over the last year, cleaning costs have increased across the board for one and two-bedroom properties. However, three-bedroom cleaning costs in the state of Texas have started rising since 2020 Q4 after steadily dropping throughout 2020.
To better understand the context of the market, we have illustrated the historical average of rental cleaning costs in Texas from 2020 Q1 to 2020 Q4. This data comes from completed TurnoverBnB projects and is not priced by the company.
1-bedroom rentals, represented by the dotted yellow line, have not shown any substantial changes besides a small price fluctuation since Q1 of 2020. 1-bedroom rentals have been plateauing at a price range between $50-$60. 2-bedroom rentals, indicated by the dotted purple line, have also staggered between increasing and dropping in price since Q2 of 2020. Notably, 2-bedroom rentals have been increasing steadily since Q4 of 2020. Lastly, 3-bedroom rentals, depicted by the dotted turquoise line, have also decreased early in 2020 and increased in Q1 of 2021.
Overall, despite industry growth in Q1 of 2021, average cleaning costs in Texas are remaining in the same range. 2 and 3 bedroom cleaning costs have risen by at least 4% and 1 bedroom rental cleaning costs have decreased.
