Renting an apartment or townhouse in Brunswick: planning the move-out clean
Almost half of Brunswick’s homes are rented. The ABS 2021 Census counted 11,040 occupied private dwellings, split fairly evenly between separate houses (35.3%), flats or apartments (34.1%) and semi-detached homes, terraces or townhouses (29.3%).
Apartments
- Check the owners corporation rules for moving: lift protection, loading-bay times and where trucks can stop are set by the building, not by us.
- Give the cleaners the building entry details and any visitor-parking instructions when you book.
- Clear the apartment before the clean if you can, so wardrobes, cupboards and floors are empty.
- Keep power and water on until the clean is finished.
Townhouses
Enter every bedroom and bathroom on both levels in the booking form, because the estimated time and price are based on them.
For truck parking, skips and unwanted furniture, see moving day in Brunswick and hard rubbish and tips.
Moving out of a Brunswick rental with a pet
Victoria’s renting rules on pets are set out by Consumer Affairs Victoria. Renters ask permission with a pet request form, and rental providers can’t ask for an extra ‘pet bond’. Every renter, with or without a pet, has a duty to keep the property reasonably clean and avoid damage. If a dispute about pet damage reaches VCAT, it considers fair wear and tear and the age and condition of the damaged items.
In an apartment or unit, the owners corporation may also have rules about pets in common areas such as foyers, driveways and gardens, and renters have to follow them.
Fleas and the final clean
Consumer Affairs Victoria gives fleas from an untreated pet as an example of a problem the renter may be responsible for fixing. Flea treatment is pest control, not part of our cleaning checklist, so if you need it, arrange it separately before the clean. Our clean covers vacuuming and mopping, skirting boards and wall marks, and you can add carpet steam cleaning to the same booking. Let us know about pets when you book.
We also clean in Coburg, Parkville, Northcote and Carlton. Before you hand back the keys, read our moving-out and rental bond guide, or compare end of lease cleaning across Melbourne.

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.
Leaving your rental clean
When it comes to moving out of a rented property, one of the biggest challenges tenants face is lease end cleaning. This is specifically required by landlords or property managers to ensure that the property is spotless for the next tenant. However, this task can be time-consuming and physically demanding, which makes it quite daunting for most people. In this article, we will discuss some of the common challenges faced during lease end cleaning.
The Complexity of Multiple Tasks
Lease end cleaning involves various tasks such as deep cleaning carpets, scrubbing floors, disinfecting bathrooms and kitchens, removing stains from walls, and much more. The complexity lies not only in accomplishing each task effectively but also managing them within a limited timeframe. With so many different areas requiring attention simultaneously, it can be overwhelming for tenants who are already busy with packing and organizing their move.
Inadequate Cleaning Equipment
Another challenge faced during lease end cleaning is lack of proper equipment. Regular household tools may not be sufficient to achieve professional-grade results expected by landlords or property managers. Deep carpet cleaners, floor scrubbers, steamers – these specialized appliances can make all the difference between an average clean-up job and a truly thorough one.
Limited Energy and Resources
Moving itself can drain energy both mentally and physically – add on top exhaustive cleaning requirements at lease end; it becomes even more challenging for tenants to complete everything without feeling completely drained-out afterward.
Moreover,
End-of-lease expenses like deposits might cause tight budget constraints leading individuals opting out hiring professional cleaners further adding up on time constraint due to other workload involved with shifting-house immediately after making heavy payments just before moving into new house leases tenancy period starting!

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 Brunswick.
