Let’s Talk about COVID-19 Surcharges

October 8, 2020

Running a cleaning business during a pandemic has resulted in extra work and supplies for many companies, from increases in cleaning frequencies and the use of disinfectants to additional personal protective equipment, such as masks, needed for workers. These changes have resulted in increased costs for many businesses.

One way to recoup these costs is to charge clients a COVID-19 surcharge. CMM’s latest poll is asking readers whether they have added, or plan to add, a coronavirus surcharge to their regular fees. Take a moment to participate in the poll on COVID-19 surcharges today, then view the results of previous polls on how coronavirus has affected the cleaning industry.
