What Australian cleaners charge
Bark puts most Australian house cleaners at A$35 to A$60 or more an hour, and a weekly or fortnightly clean of a two- or three-bedroom place at about A$120 to A$220 a visit. Airtasker puts self-employed contractors higher, at A$55 to A$90 an hour, because their rate has to cover tax, insurance, travel and supplies as well as the work.
A cleaner in Brisbane, Perth or Adelaide who works for themselves should price from the contractor figure, not an employee's hourly wage. The booking form then shows customers a fixed price for their home, worked out from that rate.
