Working AROUND furnishings is typically more time consuming that cleaning a wide open room. Subtracting square footage for rack/furnishing deductions doesn't make sense. You could chop off a few thousand feet if you're so inclined, but don't go crazy. Charge a flat rate for the total square footage. In our area a fair price for 6,000 sq ft of retail carpet would be about .09 per sq ft. You could trim the square footage back to 5500 sq ft to be a nice guy. At that rate you would charge $495 for the enter store. That's what I'd bid on a job that size. That should be competitive.
