We've been asked to quote for office clean 2 hrs per night - Monday-Friday I'd be interested to hear how much some of you would charge we want to be competitive & get this.
Do you give figure as a monthly figure?
What about Bank Holidays etc?
Please help  :
Many Thanks

Very suprised on the contract cleaning part of this forum only 1 person offers to help! Diane is asking for a seperate section for office cleaning but why bother when people ask for help & others are choosing not to.  Thanks again Nick for taking the time to email me.

suffolk clean,

Yes you are right. I agree. And feel totally ashamed of myself. If I had a tail it would be between my legs.

I totally forgot to add that bit in as Nick is a great lad for iinformation and he is new here. There should be more like him.

Anyways heres my calculation.

If you want a break down I am happy to do so. Also remember I have not added in in admin charge for invoicing, petrol/travel costs. Spot checks for supervisor or toilet rolls, paper towels etc...

Monthly cost £382.74
Yearly £4592.93

I hope this helps

Dave - do you go as far as Folkestone ? Its a big factory thats just been took over and they are putting the office and toilets cleaning out to tender -

[Nick Head]

Hi

Thanks for the nice feedback - I am going to redo the spreadsheet as it needs a bit more explanation for newcomers etc...

I will forward to you all when I have completed it

Thanks

Nick

I would also like to jump on the bandwagon if I very kindly may - I don't do any office cleaning but the pricing structure would be of interest. I do allsorts and just being myself means I just earn less should I make an error but when I need staff I will have to be on the ball.

[suffolkclean]

Many Thanks Dave    If you could break it down for me so I can see how you came to that figure I would really appreciate it.

Hi bdcs,

I dont have any work over there. Its not that I would not go that far, The contract has to be worth while..
I did tender for a contract in Ashford. But the travel cost alone as they wanted a supervisor visits etc were expensive.

Suffolk clean I will do a break down later as I am sorting out our new Vivaro van

Dave

[Pristine Clean]

The break down,

What I have done here is for the first time is using Nicks Spread sheet he kindly sent over as a test. I must say it work out ok, but like I said you would need to add on Supervisor visits, travel, admin and other overheads you may have.

Its like anything, if you want it, it comes down to Price. Go in lower if you really want it. And throw in some services the others are not offering.

We win alot of contracts just because we throw in freebies. like liquid soap, air freshener or window cleaning at a very huge discounted rate. We have WFP and tradition cleaning systems and even Carpet cleaning.

If you want to be competitive with the BIG Boys you need a large number of contracts. Most on there own are making a loss. But overall are onto a winner. The large companies spread running the cost over several contracts.

Once again you will win it on Price and what you are offering. You need to be the lowest priced and have the better specification.
