You should make note that Mousekeeping suffers from scheduling issues, for us they often show up on the wrong day, skip service or think that we are checking out when are reservation has a couple of days to go.

That being said, your paid cleaning may not happen or may happen on the wrong day.

A full cleaning includes everything including towel changes so if you order that you don't need the trash/towel service.

Disney Vacation Club Resorts offer laundry and housekeeping services. Daily housekeeping service is not provided for Members.

This Resort hotel offers a 24-hour self-service laundry room. There are also dry-cleaning and valet laundry services. Villas with one or more bedrooms also feature in-unit washers and dryers.

Trash & Towel Service

Replenish facial tissues, paper towels and toilet paper.
Replenish coffee, sugar, cream and sweeteners.

For stays of 8 or more nights, Full-Cleaning Service is provided on day 4 and Trash & Towel Service is provided on day 8, regardless of whether you're using Member-discounted cash, vacation points or a combination of both. This process repeats for stays longer than 8 days.

With Full-Cleaning service, Housekeeping will provide everything included with the Trash & Towel Service, plus:

Change the bed linens.
Vacuum and dust the vacation villa.

Disprincess, the bigger issue is that there are way better things to use your money on when at WDW than extra housekeeping. I know you think that you will want to spend this money. Trust me, you don't (unless you pay for a housekeeper to clean your home every day in regular life.)

The rooms just don't get that dirty- if your kid spills cereal, there is a vacuum. And if you bring along some Clorox wipes, cleaning the counter top takes literally a couple minutes.

DVC is more like a home away from home. I disliked the idea of the reduced housekeeping before buying DVC. Now that I've gotten used to it, I prefer to skip daily housekeeping in regular hotels as well. It's really nice not having someone in your room every day.

Also remember that the housekeeping schedule is based on "days," not "nights." So, you'll get trash and towel service after three nights (four days).

Add to this the fact that the last time I stayed at Kidani, the stove top was dirty with cooked on grime and the counter tops weren't all that clean either. It was as if somebody had done a quick once over with a wet cloth, not really trying to clean the surfaces. So, I cleaned the surfaces the same way I do at home. Which is a good idea, anyway. It makes me wonder how clean the rooms are if they don't clean and sanitize the kitchen area between guests. I don't consider clean kitchen counters "deep cleaning". At home, I consider it part of routine cleaning, before I put any food items on the counter and after I finish preparing dinner. I did notice that at BLT, there was cook top cleaner included at the rooms, which wasn't the case at Kidani.

But, even the deluxe hotel rooms aren't immune, either. When we stayed at Grand Floridian, I found a mummified sandwich in the room's refrigerator. I might never have discovered it my entire stay, if I hadn't been wanting to put my own stuff in there, so, who knows how old it was.

So if I check in on a Wednesday, "day 4" would be Saturday?

Correct, in counting days to service you include arrival date. We have ordered extra full cleaning days in the past and complaint above about housekeeping often not getting it right is a valid complaint. However, to solve that we have taken to calling housekeeping the morning of the service to remind it that we did order it and that has worked to assure it occurs (and amazingly every time we have made that call the person from housekeeping on the phone has found no record that we had previously ordered service for that day).
