how much should a cleaning service charge for a move out job?

i am starting a small cleaning service. how much should i charge if i were asked to do a move out cleaning? i live in illinois. its hard to set a price when i typically do work fast and i have a co worker to help.

so for example. lets say an apartment complex were to contact me with a two bedroom apartment. i would like to have an idea on where i should start in price. so lets say im doing everything like the inside of the stove, fridge, washing walls.. what in your opinion would be fair?

    It should depend on how bad the premises is left in. Basic cleaning of an overall home usually run between $200 for a smaller home to $400 for a larger one. This is basing it upon the fact that no damage was done or haul away of trash is done.

    Cost of doing the job + a profit. You will need to estimate how long it will take you to do it, how much the supplies cost and how much you want to make per hour.

    Of course if you want to make $30/hour and another cleaning service is happy with $20.hour you are not going to get many contracts.
