How much does home cleaning cost in Gothenburg? – Price guide
The price of home cleaning in Gothenburg primarily depends on the size of your home, how often you want help, and how long the cleaning takes.
At City Städ, home cleaning costs 249 SEK per hour after the RUT tax deduction, including VAT. This makes it easy to estimate the cost based on how much help your specific home needs.
What affects the price of home cleaning?
There are primarily a few factors that determine how much a home cleaning costs:
- the size of the home
- how many rooms are to be cleaned
- how often the cleaning is performed
- the current condition of the home
- which tasks are included
- how long the cleaning actually takes
A smaller home that is cleaned regularly usually requires less time per occasion than a larger residence or a home that has not been professionally cleaned before.

How does the RUT tax deduction work for home cleaning?
Home cleaning is normally covered by the RUT tax deduction.
RUT (short for the Swedish words for cleaning, maintenance and laundry) is a Swedish tax deduction for domestic services, allowing a portion of the labour cost to be deducted directly from the invoice. When you hire City Städ, you normally don't need to apply for the deduction yourself afterwards.
We handle the administration, and you pay the price after the RUT deduction, provided you are eligible for the deduction according to the Swedish Tax Agency's rules.
What is usually included in home cleaning?
A standard home cleaning focuses on the parts of the home that need regular cleaning.
This may include:
- vacuuming and cleaning floors
- wiping down accessible surfaces
- cleaning the kitchen
- cleaning bathrooms and toilets
- dusting
- cleaning mirrors
- emptying waste bins
Exactly what is included in home cleaning can be adapted to your home and your needs.
How often should you have home cleaning?
There is no single interval that fits everyone.
For many households, cleaning every week or every other week works well. A home with children, pets, or many occupants might need cleaning more often, while a smaller household might manage fine with longer intervals.
The most important thing is to find a level where the cleaning actually makes everyday life easier.
Is regular home cleaning worth the cost?
For many, home cleaning is less about the cleaning itself and more about the time you get back.
If a cleaning takes four hours, it means four hours that can instead be used for family, work, recovery, or other things you would rather do.
Regular cleaning can also make it easier to keep the home clean over time as dirt and grime don't have time to build up in the same way.
