About government cleaning contracts
Federal spending on cleaning contracts fell 5% from FY2024 ($1.7B) to FY2026 ($1.6B), peaking in FY2025. FY2026 closed recently, and Defense Department contracts are reported up to 90 days late, so its total may still rise.
Spending is spread widely: the top 3 contractors account for 9% of the total. No single company dominates, which leaves room for new and small contractors.
The Department of Defense spends the most on cleaning contracts (66%), followed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. The states with the most of this work are Texas, Maryland and Virginia.
