Taos Rental Cleaning For Your Airbnb & VRBO
Owning a short-term rental in Taos New Mexico is a fantastic investment. The mountains, the skiing, the art, it draws people from all over the world. But anyone who owns a vacation rental knows the real work isnt in the booking, its in the turnover. Managing cleanings between guests, especially if you dont live in Taos full-time, can be a real headache. Thats where Winter Wagon comes in.
Now you might know us from our airport shuttles, we’re the Winter Wagon that helps people get to the mountains. We’ve been operating in the rockies for a while and we know the ins and outs of the resort towns. We realized that the biggest problem for rental owners is finding reliable help. You need boots on the ground. So we decided to expand our services to help you manage your property with our professional rental cleaning services right here in Taos.
We are different than other cleaning services. We are focused specificly on helping you turn your property. We are designed from the ground up to support Airbnb hosts, VRBO owners, and people managing their own direct booking websites. We make it so all you realy need to do is manage your listing and bookings. We handle the rest.
We Are Not a Property Manager (And Thats a Good Thing)
Lets be clear, we are a great alternative to a traditional property manager. Most Taos property management companys want to take a huge cut of your rental income, sometimes as much as 20% or even 40%. And for that price, they take over your listing, they manage your pricing, and they basicly control your property. You lose the flexibility and the personal touch that makes owning a rental so rewarding.
We dont want to take over your business. We want to support it.
With our service, you manage your listing. You keep control of your calendar. You set your own prices. You communicate with your guests. You keep 100% of your booking revenue, minus the platform fees of course.
We just handle the hard part, the physical turnover. We are your reliable partner, your boots on the ground in Taos. This model saves our clients a ton of money and gives them way more control over their investment. Why pay someone a percentage of your booking when all you really need is someone to clean the place and make sure its ready for the next guest.
How Our Cleaning Service Works
We built our service around technology to make your life simple. We know that rental schedules are not like house cleaning. You dont need a cleaner every Thursday at 10am. You need a cleaner between check-out at 11am and check-in at 4pm. Our system is built for this.
You can schedule your cleans around your rental check in and outs easily. When you get a new booking, you just log into our simple portal and put in the cleaning date. We handle the rest. We get an alert, our team is dispatched, and your property is cleaned perfictly for your next guest.
We also use technology to track your clean. You’ll get notifications when our team checks in at your property and when they check out. This gives you amazing peace of mind, you’ll know exactly when your property is ready for the next guest. No more guessing or trying to text a cleaner for updates.
What Our Taos Turnover Service Includes
A turnover clean is more than just a quick wipe-down. It has to be perfect every single time. A single bad review about cleanliness can sink your listing. We get that, and our teams are trained to make your property “guest-ready”.
Our standard turnover clean includes:
- Bathrooms: Toilets, showers, tubs, sinks, and mirrors scrubbed and sanitized. We make sure there’s no hair left behind, because thats the worst.
- Kitchen: Countertops, sinks, and appliance exteriors. We’ll wipe out the microwave, check the fridge for leftover food, and make sure the coffee pot is clean.
- Bedrooms: We can strip the beds and make them with fresh linens. You just leave the clean linens for us and we’ll handle swapping them out.
- Living Areas: Dusting all surfaces, vacuuming carpets, and mopping hard floors.
- Restocking: We’ll restock essentials like toilet paper, paper towels, and soap, as long as you have a supply closet we can access.
- Final Inspection: A final walkthrough to make sure everything looks perfect, lights are off, and the door is locked.
Our cleaners are friendly, professional, and trustworthy. And most important, we are fully insured. You can have total confidence that your property is in good hands. If anything ever gets damaged, which is rare, your covered. This is a big deal, as many independent cleaners dont carry the right insurance, leaving you exposed.
More Than Just Cleaning: Your Boots on the Ground
We know that cleaning is just one part of the puzzle. Owners who manage their properties from afar have other challenges too.
Handling Lost Items: What happens when a guest leaves a phone charger or a piece of jewelry? It used to be a huge pain. You’d have to find someone to go get it, package it, and ship it. Not anymore. Our team can handle lost items. We’ll secure the item, let you know, and coordinate with you to get it back to the guest. It’s a small thing that makes a huge differnce.
Check-in & Check-out Assistance: Do you want someone to personally meet your guests? We can do that too. While many owners use smart locks, some prefer a personal touch. We can handle the meet and greet, hand over the keys, and even do a quick walkthrough with the guest. This is an add-on service, but its incredibly valuable for high-end properties. We can also do a check-out inspection if you need it.
This is what we mean by being your boots on the ground. We are your eyes and ears in Taos, making sure your investment is protected and your guests are happy.
Simple, Transparent Pricing
Unlike those property managers with their confusing percentage fees, our pricing is simple.
You pay a flat rate for cleaning based on the square footage of your property. A small one-bedroom condo will have a different rate than a large 4-bedroom house. When you sign up, we’ll give you a firm quote for your property, so you’ll always know exactly what you’re paying. No suprises.
Our other services, like the check-in and check-out meetings, are also a simple flat rate. You only pay for the services you actualy use. If you dont need us to meet your guests, you dont pay for it.
This model is just so much better for you, the owner. You save money and you only pay for what you need.
