Why families choose Rundil

Why households choose Rundil for bi-weekly cleaning in Switzerland

Every two weeks is the frequency most Swiss households settle on once they realise weekly is more than a tidy home needs, and monthly leaves too long between visits. It keeps bathrooms fresh, floors clear and surfaces dust-free on a rhythm that fits real life — while costing less each month than weekly, at the very same hourly rate. And because Rundil employs, vets and insures every cleaner (to the hygiene standards of the Federal Office of Public Health), the fortnightly routine runs itself: the same trusted person, no rota roulette, and none of the employer paperwork.

EnglishDeutschFrançais

Vetted & insured

Background-checked, trained and directly employed by Rundil — never self-employed. Full liability and UVG accident cover sit with us.

The same cleaner

A fortnight is long enough to forget the small things — so we keep one cleaner who remembers them: your layout, your products, the way you like things. Not the right fit? We reassign at no cost.

English, German or French

English-speaking cleaners as standard. Prefer German? Our zweiwöchentliche Reinigung Schweiz programme delivers identical service in your mother tongue.

Flex up or down

Life speeds up and slows down. Step up to weekly for a busy stretch, drop back to fortnightly after, or pause for travel — no contract, and cancel free until 17:00 the day before.

Who cleans your home
Every Rundil cleaner is background-checked, insured and trained to Swiss hygiene standards before their first assignment, and is directly employed by Rundil under an employer-of-record model. Because Rundil is the legal employer, you carry zero AHV, BVG or UVG obligations, no payroll admin, and no accident-insurance liability. You sign a straightforward service agreement with us — not an employment contract with an individual — while your cleaner receives fair, fully compliant Swiss employment.
The same cleaner, every fortnight
With two weeks between visits, continuity matters even more — a cleaner who already knows your home works faster and misses nothing. Rundil assigns one trusted cleaner to your fixed fortnightly slot, so they learn your preferences and pick up exactly where they left off. If they're unavailable we arrange cover and tell you in advance; and if the fit isn't right, we offer free reassignment — no cost, no friction.
English, German & French — including zweiwöchentliche Reinigung Schweiz
English-speaking cleaners are standard, and our bilingual support team handles booking, invoices and questions in English, German and French. For German-speaking clients, our zweiwöchentliche Reinigung Schweiz programme offers exactly the same vetted cleaners, transparent pricing and same-cleaner continuity, communicated entirely in your mother tongue.
Flexible plans & transparent billing
The Cleaning Plan is billed monthly in advance with no admin fee, and any missed clean is caught up within the same month. The Flexi Plan bills at the end of the month for the hours actually taken, with a 12% admin fee for the added flexibility. Both include the same vetted cleaners and itemised billing, with no long-term contract.
If it isn't right, we fix it
If anything is missed on a visit, we re-clean it promptly at no extra cost. If the cleaner isn't the right fit, we reassign at no charge. And should anything be damaged, our published terms are clear: report within 24 hours, a CHF 200 excess per claim and a CHF 800 annual maximum, with full liability insurance carried by Rundil.
The Rundil difference

Your cleaner is our employee — never a freelancer.

On marketplace platforms, the cleaner is self-employed and you quietly become their legal employer. With Rundil you sign a service agreement with us — and we carry everything.

The real cost

The true cost of a bi-weekly cleaner in Switzerland

The hourly rate is only half the story — and with fortnightly visits it's easy to assume the stakes are lower. They aren't. The other half is who carries the legal employer risk once someone cleans your home: Rundil, a marketplace, or you.

Even fortnightly tips you over the line. Pay a private cleaner more than CHF 750 a year — barely CHF 15 a week — and Swiss law makes you their employer, liable for AHV/UVG contributions, accident insurance and sick pay. A bi-weekly cleaner clears that threshold easily. With Rundil, every franc of it stays with us.

Is fortnightly right for you?

Who bi-weekly cleaning suits best

Every-two-weeks works best for homes that stay reasonably tidy day to day but deserve a proper, thorough clean on a dependable rhythm.

Couples & professionals

Homes that are lived in lightly through the week rarely need weekly attention. A fortnightly clean keeps everything pristine — without paying for visits you don't use.

Smaller homes & flats

For a compact apartment, two weeks is plenty to stay effortlessly fresh — the most cost-effective way to keep a smaller space in order.

Families who tidy as they go

If you keep on top of the day-to-day yourself, fortnightly handles the deeper jobs — bathrooms, floors and kitchens — so home stays healthy between the busy weeks.

Between deep cleans

Fortnightly upkeep holds the line, so seasonal deep cleans have far less to tackle — and your home never drifts too far.

Good to know

Bi-weekly cleaning in Switzerland: your questions answered

How much does bi-weekly cleaning cost in Switzerland?
CHF 41.50 per hour for bi-weekly cleaning (excl. 8.1% MwSt) — the same rate as weekly cleaning. A 2-bedroom apartment typically takes 2.5–3 hours per visit, around CHF 104–124 before VAT. Optional extras such as oven or fridge cleaning are CHF 22.50 each. No hidden fees.
How is bi-weekly cleaning different from weekly or monthly?
Bi-weekly means a visit every two weeks — the balance point between weekly (which can feel excessive for tidy homes) and monthly (which can leave too long between cleans). Weekly and bi-weekly share the CHF 41.50/h rate; monthly and one-off visits are CHF 44.50/h.
Is bi-weekly cleaning enough, or will dust build up between visits?
For most homes, yes — a fortnightly clean stays ahead of everyday dust and grime. Each visit works through the whole home to a full checklist rather than a light touch, so two weeks of build-up is dealt with properly. If your home gets messy quickly, you can always step up to weekly, or add the occasional deep clean.
Is bi-weekly enough if I have children or pets?
It can be, especially if you keep on top of the day-to-day yourself — the fortnightly visit then handles the deeper jobs like bathrooms, floors and kitchens. Busy family homes, or homes with shedding pets, often prefer weekly; both run at the same CHF 41.50/h rate, and you can switch whenever you like.
Can I switch between weekly and bi-weekly?
Yes, freely. There's no contract, so you can start bi-weekly and step up to weekly for a busy stretch, then drop back — or the other way round. Weekly and bi-weekly are the same hourly rate, so switching never changes your per-hour price.
Is there a minimum booking?
Yes — a minimum of 2 hours per visit applies to all cleaning types.
How quickly is a cleaner assigned?
Typically within 24 hours. Faster is sometimes possible but never guaranteed. You receive confirmation and WhatsApp details once your cleaner is assigned.
Will I have the same cleaner each time?
Yes. We assign one trusted cleaner whenever possible for continuity, so the same person returns each fortnightly visit. If they're unavailable we let you know and arrange cover, and if the fit isn't right we offer free reassignment.
Do I need to provide cleaning products?
Yes. Rundil cleaners use your own products and equipment, for hygiene and consistency between homes. On request we can send a suggested list of cleaning essentials.
Are your cleaners vetted and insured?
Every cleaner is background-checked, insured and employed directly by Rundil — never self-employed. You carry zero AHV, BVG or UVG responsibilities.
What happens if something is damaged?
Report any damage within 24 hours of the service. The customer covers the first CHF 200 of any claim, with an annual liability maximum of CHF 800. Rundil carries full liability insurance and UVG accident cover.
Can I pause or cancel my plan?
Yes — cancel free until 17:00 the day before any visit. You can pause during holidays or travel without penalty, and there are no long-term contracts.
What's the difference between the Cleaning Plan and Flexi Plan?
The Cleaning Plan is billed monthly in advance with no admin fee, and a missed clean is caught up within the same month. The Flexi Plan is billed at the end of the month on hours actually taken, with a 12% admin fee. Both let you stop at any time.
Do you offer deep cleaning or extras?
Yes. Deep cleaning is available at the same hourly rate as one-off cleaning, and extras — oven, fridge, inside windows or cabinets — can be added to any visit at CHF 22.50 each.
Do you offer move-out or end-of-tenancy cleaning?
We don't offer move-out or end-of-tenancy cleaning. For a thorough result before or after a move, our deep cleaning or one-off cleaning is the ideal alternative.
Do you offer German-speaking support (zweiwöchentliche Reinigung Schweiz)?
Yes. Our zweiwöchentliche Reinigung Schweiz programme delivers the same vetted cleaners, transparent pricing and same-cleaner continuity, with booking, invoices and support handled entirely in German for German-speaking clients.
Which areas of Switzerland do you cover for bi-weekly cleaning?
We cover Zürich (8000–8099), Zug (6300–6340), Geneva (1200–1299), Lausanne (1000–1018), Basel (4000–4059) and Bern (3000–3099), plus surrounding cantons and suburbs. Add your postcode in the booking form to confirm your area.

Why every two weeks is the frequency that sticks

Most households arrive at bi-weekly cleaning by process of elimination. Weekly can feel like more than a reasonably tidy home needs, and paying for four or five visits a month starts to grate. Monthly swings the other way — four weeks is long enough for grime to set into bathroom grout, for dust to gather on every surface, and for the clean to feel like a rescue rather than upkeep. A fortnightly rhythm lands in between: frequent enough that nothing builds up, spaced enough that you're not paying for cleans you don't need. It's the option people tend to keep once they've tried it.

Bi-weekly vs weekly — the honest comparison

The key thing to know is that weekly and bi-weekly cost exactly the same per hour at Rundil — CHF 41.50 excl. VAT — so choosing fortnightly isn't a compromise on rate, only on how often the cleaner comes. In practice a bi-weekly visit may run slightly longer than a weekly one, because two weeks' worth of living has accumulated, but you still come out ahead on the monthly total. And nothing is fixed: if a busy season or a houseful of guests calls for it, you can step up to weekly and drop back again, with no contract and free cancellation until 17:00 the day before. Many clients settle on fortnightly as their baseline and flex up only when they need to.

The employed model — and support in your language

Whichever frequency you choose, the structure behind it is the same: Rundil is the legal employer of every cleaner, so you carry no AHV, BVG or UVG obligations, no payroll and no accident-insurance liability — even a fortnightly cleaner would otherwise cross the CHF 750 threshold that makes a private household an employer under Swiss law. English-speaking cleaners are standard, and our bilingual team supports you in English, German and French. For German-speaking clients, our zweiwöchentliche Reinigung Schweiz programme offers the same vetted cleaners and transparent pricing, handled entirely in your mother tongue.

Fresh, cared for, every two weeks.

Settle into a fortnightly rhythm with the same vetted, English-speaking cleaner — the lowest hourly rate, fewer visits, and the freedom to step up to weekly whenever life needs it. No contract; cancel free until 17:00 the day before.
