Invoicing Software for Cleaning Services

Cleaning businesses bill for two kinds of work: regular visits on a fixed schedule, such as a weekly home clean or an office cleaned several nights a week, and one-off jobs, such as a move-out clean or a deep clean with extras added.

In the US, the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Occupational Outlook Handbook says: "Janitors and building cleaners keep many types of buildings clean, sanitary, orderly, and in good condition." It also says: "Work schedules may vary to include evenings, nights, or weekends." (BLS, checked October 30, 2026.)

Billed's invoice software page says: "For clients you bill on a schedule, set up a recurring profile once." Billed's recurring invoices page says you can "Choose whether to send invoices daily, weekly, monthly or yearly" and "Choose how many invoices you want to send or send invoices indefinitely."

The same page says you can "Auto send invoices or save them as draft to recheck and send later." Saving as a draft gives you a chance to check an invoice before it goes out, for example in a month when a visit was skipped or an extra clean was added. The page also says Billed "keeps all the payments and invoices related to that profile in one place."

List extras, such as an oven clean, interior windows or carpet shampooing, as separate lines rather than folding them into one total, so the client can see what each charge is for. Billed's invoice software page says you can "save the products and services you sell so you can pull them into an invoice instead of retyping them."

Billed's help article on items and services says: "You can use these items and services to bill your clients." Billed's invoice software page says: "Save your tax rates and settings once, and Billed calculates taxes automatically when you create invoices and estimates." Whether cleaning services are taxable depends on your state, so check with your state's revenue department or your accountant.

These are sample figures. A client has a weekly home clean at 140.00 a visit, and the month has 4 visits: 4 × 140.00 = 560.00. In the same month, the client asks for an oven clean, priced at 85.00. The month's invoice has two lines, a weekly clean for 4 visits at 560.00 and an oven clean at 85.00, for a total of 645.00 before any sales tax.

For a client billed monthly, a recurring invoice saved as a draft lets you add the oven clean line before it's sent. The 140.00 and 85.00 are examples, not suggested prices.

Billed's mobile app page says: "Build a professional invoice from your phone the moment a job wraps. Add line items, your logo, and tax, then send by email or share a link before you leave the site." Billed's invoice software page says: "Invite your team, accountant or contractors and give them permissions in your account."

Billed's mobile app page says: "Invoices carry a pay button when Stripe or PayPal is connected, so clients can pay by card the minute they receive it." Billed's invoice software page adds: "When a client pays by check or cash, record it as an offline payment so all your income is in one place." Billed's invoice software page says: "Set a due date on each invoice so your client knows when to pay."

Billed's invoice software page says: "Invoice reports show which invoices are paid, partially paid or past due, and you can see who owes you money and send them a payment reminder." Billed's help article on payment reminders says: "You can set a schedule of payment reminders before and after the invoice's due date." It also says: "You can send up to three reminders."
