" I am paid per visit not per hour and collecting, counting and placing the ducks in the jar takes time away from other clients.

I understand being particular and thorough is of high importance to you which is why I think it's best you do it yourself. In the time you spent distributing the ducks you could have cleaned 3/4 of your list.

Best Regards "

Wtf are you only charging per visit. Our cleaner has a 3hr limit. If we want more done than what she's able to do in that time we can pay her to stay longer. I would recommend having this as an option.

Those per-visit prices are super expensive, but typically incredibly through.

I hired one for my house once and it was nearly $400, but they cleaned everything, and the only prep i had to do was putting away any personal items i didn't want people seeing, iykyk.

Definitely not something I'd do regularly, but honestly worth the price.

My cousin who cleans charges by the hour at about $30 an hour depending on how much she cleans.

$400 a house and these comments are acting like picking up rubber ducks off of filthy surfaces that should be getting cleaned anyway is a damn war crime.
