Identifying the Problem

While working as a short-term rental manager in Columbus, Erich identified a giant gap in the market. He couldn't find a single turnover service capable of delivering on the speed, quality and consistency needed in the world of short-term rental turnarounds.

Trailblazing a New Industry & Evolving with the Market

This frustration eventually sparked inspiration. Erich decided to start the city's first cleaning company dedicated to serving the specific needs of short-term rental businesses.
As natural competition has emerged over the years, the Airbutler team has worked tirelessly to remain the most reliable and efficient short-term rental cleaners in the city. We are also by far the most cost-effective short-term rental cleaning company in Columbus.

Expanding Our Services

Since its inception, Airbutler has grown to handling over 40 property turnovers in a single day. We've expanded our services as well, now providing on-call maintenance, lawn care, and more. With Airbutler, property owners get the rare peace of mind that comes with knowing they never again have to set foot in a given property until they decide to.

Sharing Our Knowledge

Building on the explosive impact of our market-proven workflows and the trust of hundreds of clients, hosts and property owners across Columbus, Airbutler has further expanded its services. We now offer elite STR consulting and a full catalog of courses designed to save savvy entrepreneurs time, effort, and the frustrations of succumbing to common industry pitfalls.
