Below is an example of cleaning costs for a typical office building on a per square foot (PSF) basis. These costs are usually included in your base rental rate. It is important to note that certain converted industrial and loft type buildings do not include cleaning in the base rental rate.

If your lease includes the cost of cleaning, it should specify the services to be provided (e.g., the restrooms will be cleaned daily, the floors will be vacuumed weekly, etc.) and the standards at which they will be performed (e.g., in a "first class" manner or in a "building standard" manner).

	Budgeted Cost PSF
	Low	High
Cleaning	$2.00	$3.00
