House Cleaner pay in Wyoming, bottom to top

|---|---|---|---|
| 10th percentile | $12.62 | $26,250 | $13.29 |
| 25th percentile | $13.44 | $27,940 | $14.59 |

| Average (mean) | $16.26 | $33,820 | $17.83 |

What a cleaning company in Wyoming should charge
A lower wage helps the price less than you might expect, because the overhead does not shrink with it. Here is a cleaning company in Wyoming paying the state median of $15.32, on the labor rate calculator's starting numbers: 40-hour weeks, 10 paid days off, 2 unbilled hours a day, 7.65% payroll taxes, $90,000 a year of overhead and 15% profit.
| Step | Math | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Paid hours | 40 × 52 | 2,080 |
| Hours at work | 2,080 − 10 days × 8 | 2,000 |
| Billable hours | 2,000 × 6 ÷ 8 | 1,500 |
| Labor cost | $15.32 × 2,080 × 1.0765 | $34,303 |
| Break-even rate | ($34,303 + $90,000) ÷ 1,500 | $82.87 |
| Rate with 15% profit | $82.87 ÷ 0.85 | $97.49 |
That is $97.49 per billable hour, 6.4 times the wage, and $3.07 less than the $100.57 the same math gives at the national median wage.
Paying the 75th percentile instead, $18.26 in Wyoming, to hire and keep experienced people raises the rate to $102.66.
A cheaper crew saves less than it seems: at the 25th percentile wage of $13.44, the rate only drops to $94.19.
At this wage, overhead is most of the price: $60 of every billed hour goes to it before anyone is paid. Spreading the same overhead over more billable hours, with a second person or less drive time, brings the rate down fastest.
