If you wish we can a poll, but I have a feeling that there's a lot of people on this board as well, that would like to be generous with you.
Shall we fly them to Kansas?

donno your cost of doing biz
You might not be charging enough for all I know
but I'd suggest, if you can't do well at $200 an hour w/two man crew, you might have some problems ....

If you’re not doing good st $200 an hour, you might need to work more than 2 hours a day
May be try working 4 hours at $150 per hour.
Or 8 at $100
Or go get a job somewhere

But on subject of Upholstery cleaning which I feel is harder work...its be like debating between .15/sf vs .35/sf on carpet cleaning...
If i can do .35 per foot, i want charge that regardless of how many is at the job or how fast can be achieved..
Same with upholstery, after asking around with many dudes about charging, i actually found it to be between $15 to $25 a foot. That seems ideal..
The only time I would ever justify going lower in price is bundle cleaning which i have done on several occasions.
200/hr with 2 person on a 18ft couch is hauling ass.
But if i am wrong, i am wrong.

It all depends on the sofa type, material and amount of loose cushions. I average about $20 per linear foot but discount that if it going to take less time.

It's interesting you guys going by the foot (metres to me) I go by per seat $30 each for synthetic up to double that if trashed times 1.5 if oversized. $60 each if natural fibre or double if soiled times 1.5 oversized... hates it find myself talking to myself why I dont charge more
That would equate to 21 USD per seat, if 30 NZD.
