Gym & fitness studio cleaning
Gyms and studios are the highest-touch-frequency commercial space we quote. Equipment cycles 30-50 times a day, sweat is the constant disinfection challenge, and 24-hour gyms throw an extra access wrinkle — there is no after-hours window, only a slow window. Our partner teams quote around the membership clock.

How gym cleaning is priced
Gyms run 10-20% above standard commercial rates per sqm because touch-frequency drives labour. For a 500 sqm boutique studio on a 5-night rotation, expect NZ$2,400-4,200 per month. 24-hour franchise gyms (Anytime / Snap / Jetts) typically run a daily early-morning slot (4-6am) for a 2-3 hour reset; pricing structure is hourly with a monthly minimum.
Vetting and access
- ● Police vetting if cleaners hold any keys or codes
- ● 24-hour gym membership card or back-of-house access (no member-facing roles)
- ● WorkSafe sharps protocol (occasional injection sites for diabetic members)
- ● Cleaner identifiable but not member-engaging during cleaning windows
- ● Owner-operator gyms often need the same provider for both Auckland gyms — ask about multi-site contracts
Frequently asked questions
How do you clean a 24-hour gym? +
Daily 2-3 hour pre-dawn slot (typically 4-6am) — the lowest-occupancy window. Members are not excluded, but the slot is timed so the provider works around the 2-5 members typically on-site.
Do you handle sauna and steam room cleaning? +
Yes — but it's a specialist scope (mould protocols, wood treatment, specific products) usually quoted separately as a quarterly deep-clean line item.
What about CrossFit boxes / functional fitness? +
Same scope as a gym but rubber-mat cleaning is heavier and equipment range is wider. Provider walks through and quotes the specific kit (rigs, KBs, ropes, plates).
Pool decking? +
Pool cleaning is a separate specialist contract. The office cleaner can clean change rooms and pool-adjacent surfaces but not water chemistry.
