No, it’s not required for you to pay a cleaning fee every time you home swap. However, some of our members may ask for a small fee to help cover any additional cleaning costs involved in a home swap. 

Cleaning fees are not a product that can be purchased or processed on Love Home Swap, so this will need to be discussed between you and the member you are exchanging homes with.   

If you would like future home swapping guests to pay for your cleaning fees, then we recommend that you include this in your property listing description. You should also mention it to your guests before finalising the details of the swap.  

To help you prepare for the arrival of your guests, check out our cleaning guidelines. It’s also a great idea to download our helpful cleaning checklist to help keep you and your home swap guests safe.
