It takes about 1 1/2 hours to clean it each week. This is the second one, before I started it I came up with three things that directly affected design considerations - it had to be easily expendable, there could be no place a pig could reach that I couldn't, and it had to be easily maintained and cleaned which is why everything moves off the main levels. Once the cage is cleared, I pick up the newspaper and as much bedding as possible and put it into a 39 gal trash bag, I then vacuum everything and empty the vacuum into the bag, finally I wipe it down - takes about 15 minutes the rest of the time is take down and put back.
