Short-Term Rental Cleaning in Kingston, ON
Turnover cleaning between guests for rentals downtown, suites near the university and cottages out toward the Thousand Islands, fitted into the hours between departures and arrivals.
Guest-Ready Between Every Booking
A short-term rental lives or dies on its reviews, and reviews mention cleanliness more than almost anything else. The challenge isn't knowing what clean looks like. It's getting it done in the short stretch after one party departs and before the next pulls up, every time, including the summer weekends when every host in town is looking for help.
That's where a schedule-first cleaning company fits. We work from your booking calendar, plan turnovers into your departure and arrival times, and follow a written turnover list for your unit, so the place looks the same for every guest whoever cleans it.
Kingston's rental calendar has obvious peaks: summer weekends, Queen's Homecoming and convocation, long weekends and the season out on the islands. Hosts who scramble for a cleaner at those times are usually the ones who end up doing the turnover themselves at eleven at night. Getting the turnovers on our schedule early, with the unit list already written, is what keeps the busy weeks from becoming stressful ones.
Rental Turnovers Suit You If…
- You host a suite, condo or house downtown or near Queen's and RMC
- You own a cottage or waterfront rental near Gananoque or in South Frontenac
- You can't always get there yourself between guests
- You've had a cleaner miss a turnover and don't want it to happen again
- Your summer calendar is fuller than your free time
The Turnover List
Every unit gets its own list, agreed at the start. This is the usual shape of it.
| Area | Every turnover | Between longer stays or on request |
|---|---|---|
| Bedrooms | Beds stripped and remade, surfaces dusted, floors, under-bed check for left items | Mattress protectors washed, closets wiped |
| Bathrooms | Full clean, towels replaced, toiletries restocked from your supply | Grout, fan cover, shower curtain changed |
| Kitchen | Dishes, counters, appliances wiped, fridge cleared of leftovers, garbage out | Oven, inside cupboards, coffee maker descaled |
| Living areas | Surfaces, cushions, floors, remotes and switches wiped | Windows, patio furniture, balcony sweep |
Working With Your Booking Calendar
Your calendar, shared. Send us your bookings or a calendar link and turnovers get scheduled as reservations come in.
Tight turnovers. Same-day check-out and check-in windows are planned ahead, not squeezed in. Tell us your standard times and we'll say plainly whether the gap is workable for your unit.
Keys and access. Lockboxes and door codes are noted on your file. Nothing about access goes in a text that guests could see.
Licensing stays with you. The City of Kingston licenses short-term rentals, and other townships have their own rules. Hosts look after their own licence; we look after the cleaning.
Rental Cleaning Prices
| Unit | Pricing (estimate) | What moves it |
|---|---|---|
| Studio or one-bedroom suite | Quoted per turnover | Linens, kitchen use, window between guests |
| Two- to three-bedroom house or condo | Quoted per turnover | Beds, bathrooms, laundry |
| Cottage or rural rental | Quoted per turnover plus travel | Distance, lake access, outdoor areas |
We price turnovers per unit once we know the layout and your standard check-out and check-in times. A first deep clean is often worth doing before turnovers start.

Rental Cleaning Questions
Can you turn over a unit between same-day check-out and check-in?
Usually, as long as the gap is realistic for the size of the unit. We'll look at your times and tell you before we commit.
Do you handle linens and towels?
Tell us how you handle linens now: on-site laundry, a spare set, or a linen service. We'll build the turnover around it.
