State-by-State Cleaning Industry Statistics: Average Invoice Growth Rate for 2017-2018

Here at ServiceMonster, we're all about the numbers. We believe that knowing and truly understanding the numbers of your business will improve your day-to-day operations and, ultimately, help you grow. In 2018, our users processed over $500 million in invoices! However, we wanted to break down the numbers even further. That's why we're very excited to present to you our state-by-state cleaning industry statistics for 2018. We've condensed down our ServiceMonster user data to provide you with two key metrics: Average invoice total (filtered between $50 and $2,500) for 2018, and average invoice growth rate from 2017 to 2018.

The heat map below has the data sorted by each state, with the lighter blues representing a decrease or lower overall change and the darker blues representing a larger overall change.

We're pleased to report that our data shows a nearly 5% increase in the average invoice total nationwide, with the average invoice being just shy of $283.

‍However, two states stand out with a massive increase in numbers!

First up is Maryland. By the end of 2018, cleaners in Maryland were averaging just over $353 per invoice, with a growth rate from 2017 to 2018 of 30%! This data was taken from a sample of 27,000 invoices.

Next up, we have Ohio! By the end of 2018, Ohio cleaners were averaging almost $246 per invoice, with a growth rate of just over 25%. This data was taken from a sample of 52,000 invoices.

While some states did see a decrease in the average invoice total, the vast majority saw an increase from 2017 to 2018.
