We understand the cost saving measures of having your staff do all of your routine carpet cleaning in house. But are you really saving money?
We compared our current monthly program customer spending with businesses who utilize their onsite staff for cleaning their facility carpets in house:
- On average, corporations spend up to $12,000-$18,000 per year on maintaining their carpets in house. Here is the cost breakdown:
-
- $2000- $5000 on the purchase of carpet cleaning equipment, routine equipment maintenance, and cleaning chemicals
- At an average wage of $18.50 per hour for maintenance personnel, and additional 18% employee burden (benefits, insurance, payroll costs), a staff member spending just 5 hours a week on spot cleaning carpets, turning resident rooms for new move ins, and general upkeep will cost a facility roughly $6250 per year
- Most facilities also pay for an annual professional cleaning of all facility carpets, averaging $5000 per service visit
- On average, customers on a Summit Clean preventative maintenance program spend around $6000-$8000 with us per year. Their carpets are cleaned at the recommended Carpet and Rug Institute cleaning intervals (see example below for a sample program and recommended cleaning intervals), and as a result, they save time, money and energy in the process.
