Expectations for Professional Cleaning Company

I'm still new to hosting and have questions about expectations for your cleaning crew. When you have back-to- back bookings, and tell the cleaner the night before that you need it cleaned the very next day, does that usually work out okay?
 
Do they inform you if they can't get it done? And do you use a back up cleaning company? Or is it expected that they should be able to get it done on time? What is your experience and expectations.
 
Do your cleaners always clean properties the same day someone leaves? Or will they just make sure to do it before the next booking?
 
I would love to hear what people think is reasonable expectations, AND how well your cleaners do at meeting those expectations.

It depends on which cleaning cômpany you use @Christopher1560 

 

Speak to three or four cleaning companies in your area and ask them.

I personally clean my unit myself. I have high expectations and don’t want my business being controlled by when someone else can fit a clean in. I like to get in and get the property clean so that it’s available again quickly. 
If you plan on using a company I think you just have to be very clear on what your expectations are and ensure they can meet them. I am fortunate that if I am not well enough to clean the unit or busy my daughter helps and I have trained her myself. Just keep an eye on the quality of work you receive I think that is the main thing. Good luck 🤞
