Fortnightly cleaning is the sweet spot between weekly and monthly: dust never quite builds up, your budget breathes, and the same vetted, English-speaking cleaner keeps everything in order. Employed & insured by us — so you carry zero employer risk.
A bi-weekly clean means one visit every two weeks — enough to keep a lived-in home genuinely fresh, at the same CHF 41.50 per hour (excl. 8.1% MwSt) as weekly, so you pay for fewer visits at the lowest rate. Assigned within 24 hours, no contract, zero employer paperwork.

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.
Background-checked, trained and directly employed by Rundil — never self-employed. Full liability and UVG accident cover sit with us.
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-speaking cleaners as standard. Prefer German? Our zweiwöchentliche Reinigung Schweiz programme delivers identical service in your mother tongue.
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.
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.
Two weeks is long enough for dust, bathroom limescale and kitchen splatter to settle back in — so every fortnightly visit works through the whole home to a full checklist, never a quick once-over.
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.

Every-two-weeks works best for homes that stay reasonably tidy day to day but deserve a proper, thorough clean on a dependable rhythm.
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.
For a compact apartment, two weeks is plenty to stay effortlessly fresh — the most cost-effective way to keep a smaller space in order.
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.
Fortnightly upkeep holds the line, so seasonal deep cleans have far less to tackle — and your home never drifts too far.

| 2-bed, 1 bathroom | 2.5 – 3 hours | CHF 104 – 124 |

All three keep your home fresh with the same vetted cleaner and zero employer admin. The right frequency simply depends on your household and how quickly things build up.
| Frequency | Rate (excl. VAT) | How it works | Best for |

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.
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.
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.
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.
