Dryer vent cleaning costs $100–$200 in the US for a single residential vent. Clogged dryer vents cause about 2,900 home fires per year (per the US Fire Administration). Most homes need cleaning every 1–2 years; if clothes are taking longer to dry, schedule sooner. In Poland expect PLN 200–500; in the Netherlands €60–€150.

Why it matters
- Fire prevention — lint is highly flammable; clogged vents are a leading cause of home fires
- Energy efficiency — a clear vent dries clothes 20–40% faster, cutting energy use
- Dryer longevity — restricted airflow overheats and wears out the dryer's motor and heating element
- Indoor air quality — backflow can push lint and moisture into your laundry room
What affects the cost?
- Vent length and routing — short straight runs are cheapest; rooftop or multi-story runs cost more
- Type of duct — flexible foil is easier to clean than rigid metal; some pros charge less to clean metal
- Animal blockages — birds and rodents nest in vent caps and need removal
- Bundling — combine with chimney sweep or duct cleaning for a discount

Cost in the United States
National average is $130 for a standard residential cleaning. Most professionals carry $1M+ in liability insurance and provide before/after video of the cleaned vent. CSIA-certified pros are the gold standard.
How to save

- Bundle with chimney sweep — many pros offer 15–25% off the combined service
- Annual contract — discounts of 10–20% for recurring schedules
- Skip the upsell on duct replacement unless damage is visible
