Airbnb & Vrbo turnover cleaning between guests
Airbnb turnover cleaning is the cleaning and preparation performed after one guest checks out and before the next guest arrives.
A proper turnover involves more than basic housekeeping. The property needs to look and feel ready for a new guest, from the entryway and living areas to the kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms, linens, and supplies.

Washable blankets and other items can be addressed when included in the cleaning requirements.

Airbnb cleaning & linen service

Laundry is also available as an add-on when additional laundry is required.
If your property has multiple bedrooms, beds, or bathrooms, include your laundry requirements when requesting your quote so the cleaning scope reflects the property.
Airbnb restocking service
A rental needs more than clean rooms to be ready for a new guest. Essential supplies should also be checked between bookings.
Rent Maids can check and replenish selected items such as:
- Toilet paper
- Hand soap
- Cleaning supplies
- Snacks
- Water bottles
- Toiletries
If your property uses a specific inventory or restocking list, provide those requirements when arranging your cleaning service.
Airbnb's 5-step enhanced cleaning process
Rent Maids is up to date with Airbnb's 5-step enhanced cleaning process and incorporates it into its cleaning checklist.
A structured process is particularly useful for short-term rentals because each turnover involves multiple rooms and individual tasks. A checklist helps ensure the property is worked through consistently rather than relying only on general house-cleaning routines.
For hosts, this means the turnover can account for bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, common areas, linens, trash, and guest supplies before the next arrival.
Additional Airbnb cleaning services
Every short-term rental has different requirements. Rent Maids can accommodate special requests when they are specified during the quoting process.
Available add-on services include:
- Interior window cleaning
- Laundry
- Dishwashing
If your property needs additional cleaning after a particularly demanding stay or has specific turnover instructions, include those requirements when requesting your quote.

Airbnb housekeeping vs. regular house cleaning
Airbnb housekeeping focuses on preparing a rental for the next guest, while regular house cleaning focuses on maintaining a home.
The services share many cleaning tasks, but Airbnb turnover cleaning can include additional guest-preparation work such as:
- Changing guest linens
- Making beds
- Checking for items left behind
- Removing checkout trash
- Restocking guest supplies
- Checking the refrigerator
- Preparing the property for the next arrival
These additional tasks are what make short-term rental housekeeping different from a standard recurring home cleaning.
What should you look for in an Airbnb cleaning company?
Choosing an Airbnb cleaning company involves more than finding someone who can clean the property.
A professional short-term rental cleaning service should understand turnover timing, cleaning checklists, linens, guest supplies, and property-specific instructions.
A clear turnover checklist
A defined checklist helps ensure important rooms and tasks are addressed during each cleaning.
Consistent cleaning
A consistent process helps keep the property prepared to the same standard between bookings.
