Ms. Nguyen Thi Tham, manager of a company specializing in cleaning and sanitizing houses in Vinh city, said: In the past, people cleaned and decorated their houses themselves to welcome Tet. However, now, due to busy work, the demand for cleaning services has increased, especially near Tet. Since the full moon of the twelfth lunar month, the number of people signing cleaning contracts with the company has increased 3-4 times compared to normal days. The daily wage has therefore also increased, about 400,000 - 500,000 VND/person/day.

However, there are times when the company does not have enough workers to arrange and cannot recruit people, so they have to work overtime at night. This year, the number of house cleaning orders increased by 1.5 times compared to last year, and workers have to work until the 30th of Tet to meet customer demand.

Currently in Vinh city, there are many companies specializing in cleaning and tidying up houses and many people organize their own groups to provide this service; not to mention many freelance workers also do house cleaning, but at the end of the year, this service is always "hot", supply cannot meet demand.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Huong, who has been cleaning by the hour for 5 years, said that during Tet, the demand for cleaning increases, sometimes it is too much to handle, so she has to call other women to help. However, that is for those who have been doing it for a long time, have prestige, and have established a close relationship with the homeowner, so they receive many orders. As for those who are new to the job, they often look for companies with clear contracts.

House cleaning costs during the days before Tet are also one and a half times or twice as expensive as usual. There are houses that require a lot of effort to clean, have a lot of fragile items, and need to be cleaned meticulously, so the cost is high, about 400,000 - 500,000 VND/day/person; if cleaning is done on a contract basis, the cost depends on the area, number of floors, number of rooms, and the amount of items in the house. It can range from 1 million to several million VND/house.

Normally, Ms. Huong's group can only receive 1-2 houses a day because each house has a different area and condition. Some houses are rarely cleaned, have a lot of dust, and have a lot of furniture, so it takes a lot of effort. These days, everyone in the group has almost no time off.

Ms. Le Thuy Hoa in Nghi Phu commune, Vinh city said: "The end of the year work is busy, there is no time to clean and decorate the house so I have to hire someone to do it. I found an acquaintance who has cleaned houses for a long time to hire. The salary is of course higher than usual but I find it acceptable, it's Tet."
