Before your final inspection
In Victoria, renters must leave the property reasonably clean, with fair wear and tear excepted, and the condition report from the start of the agreement is the reference. Since 29 March 2021 a rental provider can only require professional cleaning at the end of the tenancy if the property was professionally cleaned immediately before you moved in and you were told, or if it is needed to return the property to its condition at the start, allowing for fair wear and tear. Carpet steam cleaning can be added to your end of lease clean in the same booking: see carpet cleaning in Dandenong.

Helpful moving-out guides
Your moving-out timeline
- Book the clean once you know your moving date and the final inspection date.
- Book a hard waste (bulky waste) collection or arrange disposal for anything you are not taking: see bins, waste and tips in Dandenong.
- Move your belongings out. Cleaners need empty rooms to reach floors, skirting boards and the insides of cupboards.
- The end of lease clean. Keep the water and electricity connected: our cleaners need both.
- The final inspection with your agent or rental provider, against your entry condition report.
- Arrange for the utilities to be disconnected after the clean and the inspection.
- The bond refund: see how bonds are refunded in Victoria.
Access and keys
- Access and keys: we coordinate access and key handover with you, including collecting keys from your real estate agent or meeting you at the property, as arranged when you book.
- Codes, parking and pets: add gate or building codes, where to park and anything about pets in the booking form’s instructions field.
- Your condition report: note anything it recorded (for example marks, carpets or the oven) in the instructions field, so we know what will be checked.
What affects the price
End of lease cleaning starts from $249.40 for a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom property. Your price depends on:
- your bedrooms and bathrooms, which set the cleaning hours
- carpet steam cleaning, priced per room, if you add it
- any extras you choose
How booking works: Choose your service → Send your booking request → We’ll confirm the details. You see your total before you send the request.
Bond Back Guarantee
Missed a spot? We’ll come back and re-clean it free.
- Tell us about any cleaning issue within 72 hours of our cleaners leaving.
- We return and re-clean the affected areas at no extra cost.
- Tip: book your clean close to your final inspection, so the 72 hours covers it.
Planning your end of lease clean in Dandenong
A few things make the clean and the final inspection go more smoothly:
- Book the clean for after the furniture is out. Cleaners need empty rooms to reach skirting boards, floors and the insides of wardrobes, so the best time is once the removalists have gone and before you return the keys.
- Leave a little time before the inspection. If your agent or rental provider notices something, it is easier to fix while you still have access to the property.
- Keep the power and water on. Both must be connected on the day of the clean, so check the dates before you arrange disconnection.
- Take dated photos. Photos after the clean, alongside your condition report from the start of the tenancy, are useful evidence if anything is questioned later.
- Add carpet cleaning in the same booking if you need it. Check your lease and condition report first; it is not always required (see below).

Rubbish and unwanted items before you move out
Arrange removal of rubbish and unwanted furniture before your end of lease clean and key handover. In Greater Dandenong, hard rubbish is collected in the week you are given when you book, so book as soon as you know your moving date.

Getting your bond back in Dandenong
- Refund: Victorian bonds are held by the Residential Tenancies Bond Authority (RTBA). When you and your rental provider agree, the RTBA usually repays the bond within one business day.
- Evidence that helps: your entry condition report, the final inspection and dated photos taken when you leave.

End of lease cleaning in Dandenong: questions
What does an end of lease clean include?
Every room on the checklist above: kitchen and oven, bathrooms, bedrooms, living areas, laundry and a garage sweep. Balconies, blinds, carpet steam cleaning, external windows, grout, fridge, garage clean-up and wall washing are optional extras.
Is a vacate clean in Dandenong the same as an end of lease clean?
Yes. Vacate, bond, move-out and end of lease cleaning are names for the same service, and the same checklist applies.
Can you clean before the final inspection in Dandenong?
Yes. Book the clean for after your belongings are out and before the final inspection, so the property is inspected clean. Keep the power and water connected until the clean is done.
Do I have to get the carpets steam cleaned when I move out?
Not always. In Victoria, a rental provider can only require professional cleaning at the end of a tenancy if the property was professionally cleaned immediately before you moved in and you were told, or if it is needed to return the property to its condition at the start, allowing for fair wear and tear (Residential Tenancies Regulations 2021 (Vic), reg 12). Check your lease and condition report; carpet steam cleaning can be added to the same booking.
How long does an end of lease clean take?
A 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom property starts from about 3 cleaning hours. Every home is different: larger homes, heavy build-up and extras such as carpet steam cleaning take longer. The booking form shows the estimated time and price for your property.
Do I need to be there during the clean?
No. We coordinate access and key handover with you, including collecting keys from your agent or meeting you at the property, as arranged when you book.
What if my agent spots something after the clean?
Let us know within 72 hours of your clean and we’ll come back and re-clean those areas free. Terms apply.
How do I get my bond back?
See moving out and claiming your rental bond for how the RTBA refunds bonds, how to avoid a dispute and what fair wear and tear means.
