How Much Does Bond Cleaning Cost?
Prices depend on your location, the size and condition of the property and any extras such as carpet steam cleaning.

Why Is Lease End Cleaning Important?
In Victoria, how you leave a rental property affects your bond refund. Here’s why a thorough end of lease clean matters.
Get your bond back: In Victoria, your bond is held by the Residential Tenancies Bond Authority (RTBA), not by your rental provider, and in most cases it can’t be more than one month’s rent. When you move out, the rental provider can claim against the bond if the property hasn’t been left reasonably clean, so a thorough clean helps your bond be repaid without a cleaning claim.
Keep a good rental record: Leaving the home clean shows you’ve looked after it, which helps when you ask your agent or rental provider for a reference for your next rental.
Meet your obligations: Victorian rental providers can claim against the bond if the property hasn’t been left reasonably clean. After the agreement ends, the rental provider or agent completes the exit condition report within 10 days, and you must be present or be given a reasonable opportunity to be there.
Health and safety: A thorough clean removes built-up grease, soap scum and mould from kitchens and bathrooms, leaving the home hygienic for the next renter.
In short, a careful end of lease clean protects your bond, supports your rental record and leaves the home ready for the next renter.
Before you book, compare the home with your entry condition report: it records the property’s condition when you moved in, and the exit inspection is recorded on the same report. Check your rental agreement for any cleaning terms as well. If you need a professional clean, booking it before you hand back the keys is usually simpler than resolving a bond claim afterwards.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does an lease end cleaning include?
A lease end cleaning typically includes a thorough cleaning of the entire property, including the bathrooms, kitchen, floors, walls, and windows. This may also include carpet cleaning and steam cleaning, if applicable.
How long does lease end cleaning 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.
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.
Do I need to be present during end of lease cleaning?
You do not necessarily need to be present during cleaning, but if you chose to, you can be there at the beginning and end of the cleaning to ensure that everything is completed to your satisfaction.
Is professional carpet cleaning required for end of lease cleaning?
Not always. In Victoria a rental provider can only require professional cleaning in limited cases: 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 of the tenancy, allowing for fair wear and tear (Residential Tenancies Regulations 2021 (Vic), reg 12). Check your lease and condition report; we can add carpet steam cleaning to your booking if you need it.
Do I need to provide cleaning supplies for end of lease cleaning?
Not at all. Our cleaners carry all the cleaning supplies and equipment. However, if you wish for certain cleaning agents to be used for cleaning (like, if the house is on the septic system), you need to provide this information beforehand.
How far in advance should I book an exit cleaning service?
It is recommended to book an end of lease cleaning service at least two weeks in advance to ensure that you get a reliable and experienced cleaning company and to allow time for any necessary preparations. However, we can provide EOL cleaning service on an urgent notice as well, even on Sundays and Public Holidays.
Should I clean the property before the end of lease cleaning service arrives?
It is not necessary to clean the property before the end of lease cleaning service arrives, but it is recommended to clear out any personal belongings and clutter to ensure that the cleaners have easy access to all areas of the property.
Is key pickup service included in the lease cleaning service?
Key pickup service is not included in the lease cleaning service. It is an additional service that we offer for an extra fee. However, if the location of the property is nearby the location for Key pickup, we may do it for free.
What is the benefit of using a key pickup service?
Using a key pickup service saves you time and hassle, as you do not need to arrange to collect and return the keys yourself. It also ensures that the cleaning company has easy access to the property, allowing them to complete the cleaning quickly and efficiently.
