Prepare Every Property for a Better Guest Experience
Professional vacation-rental turnover cleaning throughout Martha's Vineyard — reliable guest-ready resets between stays, with optional linen support, restocking, and issue reporting for hosts and property managers.
Vacation rental turnover cleaning requires more than a quick surface clean. Between guest departure and the next arrival, the property must be carefully reset, cleaned, inspected, and prepared within a limited timeframe.
ICP Cleaning provides professional turnover cleaning services throughout Martha's Vineyard for vacation rentals, short-term rentals, seasonal properties, guest cottages, and professionally managed homes.
Our team helps hosts and property managers maintain consistent standards by cleaning kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, living areas, floors, and guest-ready spaces between stays. Depending on the agreed service plan, turnover cleaning may also include linen changes, supply checks, trash removal, light staging, and reporting visible issues.
Whether you manage one property or several vacation rentals, we create a customized turnover plan based on the home, booking schedule, occupancy, property standards, and available turnaround time.

The Basics
What Is Turnover Cleaning?
Turnover cleaning is a time-sensitive service performed between guest stays. Its purpose is to prepare a short-term rental property for the next arrival while maintaining the cleanliness, presentation, and consistency expected by guests.
Unlike regular house cleaning, turnover cleaning follows a hospitality-focused process. The service must account for departure and check-in times, guest-used linens, restocking expectations, property presentation, trash removal, and the need to identify visible damage or maintenance concerns.
The exact scope should be documented before service begins. Some property owners only need cleaning, while others require a more complete reset that includes linens, consumables, and basic visual inspection.
- Cleaning and sanitizing bathrooms
- Resetting bedrooms
- Cleaning kitchens and food-contact areas
- Vacuuming and mopping floors
- Removing trash
- Checking visible guest areas
- Replacing linens when arranged
- Restocking approved supplies
- Resetting furniture and décor
- Reporting obvious maintenance concerns
- Completing a final guest-readiness check
The Difference
Turnover Cleaning vs. Deep Cleaning
A vacation rental may need regular turnover service after each stay and a separate deep cleaning periodically.
Turnover Cleaning
- Completed between guest stays
- Focuses on guest readiness
- Includes reset and presentation
- Often includes linens and supplies
- Time-sensitive
- Uses a property-specific checklist
- May include issue reporting
Deep Cleaning
- Completed occasionally for detailed restoration
- Focuses on accumulated buildup
- Includes more detailed surface work
- Usually does not include guest staging
- Scheduled according to property need
- Uses a condition-based cleaning plan
- Focuses primarily on cleaning
The ICP Signature Guest Welcome
Every detail matters when welcoming vacation rental guests to Martha's Vineyard. From custom-sealed paper towels with the ICP emblem to spotless kitchen counters, neatly folded linens, and optional branded amenities, we make sure guests walk in and immediately feel the difference of a professionally cared-for island home.
Timing
How Long Does Turnover Cleaning Take?
The service duration depends on several factors:
- Property size
- Number of bedrooms
- Number of bathrooms
- Guest condition
- Number of beds
- Linen responsibilities
- Laundry equipment
- Amount of sand
- Trash volume
- Dishes
- Pet use
- Supply restocking
- Outdoor areas
- Property layout
- Checkout condition
- Team size
- Time between bookings
A small one-bedroom cottage may require far less time than a large multi-bedroom home with several bathrooms, laundry, outdoor showers, and back-to-back bookings. Turnover estimates should account for normal guest use. Excessive messes or unexpected conditions may require additional time and pricing.
Pricing
How Much Does Turnover Cleaning Cost?
Pricing depends on the scope and operational requirements of the property. Two properties with similar square footage may have very different turnover needs.
A customized estimate based on the actual checklist provides a more accurate price. Factors that may affect pricing include:
Cost Factors
- Square footage
- Number of bedrooms
- Number of bathrooms
- Number of beds
- Linen service
- Laundry volume
- Guest capacity
- Cleaning frequency
- Check-in deadline
- Property location

- Supply checks
- Restocking
- Trash procedures
- Outdoor spaces
- Average guest condition
