Which rate applies to you

Weekly, bi-weekly, monthly or one-off β€” what each one costs

Frequency is the only thing that moves the hourly rate. Everything else β€” the cleaner, the vetting, the insurance, the support β€” is identical whichever you choose.

Inside the hour

What the hourly rate actually covers

House cleaning prices in Switzerland bundle three costs into one number: the person, their protection, and the paperwork behind them. Here is how ours divides up β€” and the short list of things that sit outside it.

In the rate

  • Your cleaner's wage, on compliant Swiss terms
  • AHV, BVG & UVG β€” carried by Rundil
  • Liability & accident insurance
  • Vetting, references & training
  • Scheduling & WhatsApp support
  • Free reassignment, any time

Added only if you choose it

  • Inside the oven β€” CHF 22.50
  • Inside the fridge β€” CHF 22.50
  • Inside the windows β€” CHF 22.50
  • Kitchen cabinets β€” CHF 22.50
  • 12% admin fee β€” Flexi Plan only
  • 8.1% VAT β€” on everything above

Never on your invoice

  • Call-out or booking fees β€” none exist
  • Registration or sign-up fees
  • Contract exit fees β€” there is no contract
  • Products & equipment β€” your cleaner uses yours
  • Employer contributions β€” they are ours
  • Surcharges for deeper work β€” only more hours
The real cost

Why the cheapest hourly rate is rarely the lowest price

Comparing house cleaning prices in Switzerland on the hourly rate alone hides the biggest variable: who is legally the employer once someone cleans your home, and who pays when something goes wrong.

  • AHV and UVG contributions on top of the wage
  • Holiday pay and sick pay are yours to fund
  • No cover, no back-up, no reassignment
  • Liability for damage lands on you
The hidden cost of "cheaper." Pay a private cleaner more than CHF 750 a year and Swiss law makes you their employer β€” responsible for AHV/UVG contributions, accident insurance and sick pay. Add those to CHF 27 an hour and the gap to CHF 41.50 closes fast β€” except that with Rundil the paperwork, the cover and the risk all stay with us.
The Rundil difference

The line on your invoice is the whole cost.

Because your cleaner is our employee and not a freelancer, every employment cost a Swiss household would otherwise carry is already priced into the hour you are quoted. Nothing arrives later.

Trust & protection

What the price protects you from, in writing

Miss something on a visit and we re-clean it promptly at no extra cost. If something is damaged, the terms are published rather than negotiated β€” here they are.

Vetted & insured β€” inside the rate

Every Rundil cleaner is background-checked, insured and trained before their first assignment, and directly employed by Rundil rather than self-employed. None of that appears as a separate charge: it is funded from the hourly price. You carry no AHV, BVG or UVG responsibility, and Rundil holds full liability insurance and UVG accident cover. A vetted, English-speaking cleaner is typically assigned within 24 hours of booking.

Damage & liability, clearly stated

  • Report any damage within24 hours
  • Customer excess (first)CHF 200 / claim
  • Annual liability maximumCHF 800
  • Insurance carried byRundil

House cleaning prices in Switzerland: your questions answered

How much does house cleaning cost per hour in Switzerland?
House cleaning prices in Switzerland with Rundil are CHF 41.50 per hour for weekly or bi-weekly cleaning and CHF 44.50 per hour for one-off, monthly or deep cleaning, both excluding 8.1% VAT. Including VAT that is CHF 44.86 and CHF 48.10 per hour. Across the wider Swiss market, agency rates for domestic cleaning generally sit between CHF 35 and CHF 55 per hour.
Is there a minimum booking?
Yes β€” two hours per visit, on every cleaning type and both billing plans. A studio therefore costs CHF 83 per visit excl. VAT (CHF 89.72 incl.) on the weekly rate, even if the work takes less time.
Are the prices on this page with or without VAT?
Every headline figure is excl. 8.1% VAT, which is how Swiss service pricing is normally quoted. The full list on this page shows both columns, so you can see the gross figure before you book rather than after.
Does deep cleaning cost more per hour?
Deep cleaning is charged at CHF 44.50 per hour β€” the same rate as one-off and monthly cleaning, not the weekly rate. It is not a surcharge on top of an hourly rate: it is the one-off rate applied to a longer, more thorough visit.
What are the CHF 22.50 extras?
Inside the oven, inside the fridge, inside the windows, and inside the kitchen cabinets. Each is CHF 22.50 per visit excl. VAT (CHF 24.32 incl.) and is added on top of the hourly time, because each one adds real work to the visit.
What is the difference between the Cleaning Plan and the Flexi Plan?
The Cleaning Plan is billed monthly in advance with no admin fee and suits regular weekly or bi-weekly clients. The Flexi Plan is billed at the end of the month for the hours actually taken and carries a 12% admin fee β€” you pay for flexibility rather than committing to a rhythm. Both let you stop at any time.
Are there any call-out, booking or registration fees?
No. The hourly rate, any extras you choose, the 12% Flexi admin fee if you are on that plan, and 8.1% VAT are the only figures on your invoice. There is no call-out charge, no sign-up fee and no minimum contract term.
Do house cleaning prices in Switzerland change depending on the city?
Not with Rundil. The rate is the same in ZΓΌrich, Zug, Geneva, Lausanne, Basel, Bern and the surrounding cantons. What changes your total is the size of your home and the hours it needs, not your postcode.
What does the hourly rate actually include?
The cleaner's wage, their AHV, BVG and UVG contributions, accident and liability insurance, vetting and training, scheduling, and WhatsApp support. Rundil is the legal employer, so none of those costs or obligations land on you.
Do I pay for cleaning products and equipment?
No β€” there is nothing to pay, because your cleaner works with the vacuum, mop and products already in your home. If something essential is missing, your cleaner will flag it, and we can send you a suggested essentials list on request.
What happens to the price if I cancel?
Cancel free of charge until 17:00 the day before your visit and there is no cost at all. On the Cleaning Plan, a visit cancelled in time is caught up within the same month; on the Flexi Plan you simply are not billed for hours you did not take.
How is my cleaner assigned, and does it cost anything to change?
A vetted, English-speaking cleaner near you is typically assigned within 24 hours of your booking. If they are not the right fit, we assign someone else free of charge β€” reassignment is never billed.
Why is a private cleaner at CHF 27 an hour not actually cheaper?
Because the hourly wage is not the whole cost. Pay a domestic cleaner more than CHF 750 in a year and Swiss law makes you their employer: AHV, UVG accident cover, sick pay, holiday entitlement and the admin all become yours, along with the liability if something goes wrong. The true-cost comparison on this page sets the two side by side.
Do you offer end-of-tenancy or move-out cleaning?
No. Rundil covers regular and one-off domestic cleaning only β€” weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, one-off and deep. Handover cleaning works on a completely different model and sits outside our hourly pricing, so it is not something we quote.
How do I switch between weekly, bi-weekly, monthly and one-off?
Message us on WhatsApp or use your booking portal. There is no penalty and no fee for switching. If you move between the recurring and one-off rate, the change simply applies from your next visit.
Can I get a fixed quote before booking?
The calculator on this page gives you a guide price in seconds, based on our experience with similar Swiss homes. Because every home is different, your cleaner confirms the realistic duration on the first visit and we adjust the plan with you from there.

House cleaning prices in Switzerland, without the guesswork

Rundil publishes every one of its house cleaning prices in Switzerland on a single page, because pricing is where most households lose confidence in a service. Two hourly rates cover everything we do: CHF 41.50 for recurring weekly and bi-weekly visits, and CHF 44.50 for one-off, monthly and deep cleaning, both before 8.1% VAT. Extras are CHF 22.50 each, the minimum visit is two hours, and the total on your invoice is simply the hours worked multiplied by the rate. Whether you are in a compact flat in ZΓΌrich, a family home in Zug, or a townhouse in Geneva, Lausanne, Basel or Bern, that arithmetic does not change.

Why the rate is what it is

House cleaning prices in Switzerland are never only a wage. Ours funds the cleaner's fully compliant Swiss employment, their AHV, BVG and UVG contributions, accident and liability insurance, vetting, training and the scheduling behind every visit. That is the difference between a headline rate and a real one: hire privately at CHF 27 an hour and those costs do not disappear, they simply move onto your side of the table, along with the legal responsibility that arrives the moment you pay a domestic worker more than CHF 750 in a year. With Rundil, every franc of that stays with us β€” which is why we can put the whole price list in public and leave it there.

Reinigungspreise Schweiz β€” the same price, in your language

Rundil serves Switzerland's international and local households equally, and the price list is identical for both. English-speaking cleaners are standard, and our bilingual team supports you in English, German and French from the first enquiry to every completed visit. For German-speaking clients comparing Reinigungspreise Schweiz, the rates, the two-hour minimum, the CHF 22.50 extras and the free cancellation until 17:00 the day before all apply exactly as written here β€” our house cleaning prices in Switzerland are never quoted differently in a different language.

Now you know the price. Book the clean.
