Moving out of a rental in Mernda (postcode 3754) comes down to a few practical questions: what does the clean cost, what does it cover, how quickly can it be booked, and what happens if the agent is not satisfied? This page answers each of them using what we state on our site. If you want end of lease cleaning Mernda tenants can fit into a busy move-out week, the sections below follow that order.
Covering Mernda
Mernda is one of the 386 metro suburbs we service across Melbourne. It sits in the city’s north, in the City of Whittlesea, and is the end of the Mernda train line. Housing is mostly houses, with some townhouses and units, so the quote can be set up for either house end of lease cleaning or apartment end of lease cleaning.
We are based in Bundoora. You can book by phone on 0401 398 705 or send your details through the free quote form.
From quote to booking
Most tenants want the process to be short and predictable. This is how it runs:
- Call 0401 398 705. Quotes over the phone take under five minutes.
- Or fill in the free quote form and we reply the same business day.
- You receive a firm price for the clean and any extras you ask for.
- You book the clean. Booking is usually done within two to four business days of the quote.
- The 7-day re-clean guarantee is provided in writing.
An end of lease cleaning quote is only as accurate as the details you give, so have the number of bedrooms, bathrooms and carpeted rooms handy.
What the price starts from
Bond & End of Lease Cleaning starts from $280. That is a starting point, not a flat rate, so call for a price that fits your property. If you are comparing end of lease cleaning prices in Mernda, check what each quote lists rather than the headline number alone.
People often search for cheap end of lease cleaning or the best end of lease cleaning. Neither phrase tells you much on its own. A more useful comparison covers three things:
- What is included in the base price, and what is an extra.
- Whether the re-clean guarantee is in writing, and for how long.
- The price per room for carpet cleaning, and whether stain treatment is included.
What is included
Our Bond & End of Lease Cleaning is done to the REIV exit condition standard. Whether you call it bond cleaning, vacate cleaning, exit cleaning or move out cleaning, the clean covers:
- Inside cupboards, drawers and wardrobes
- Oven, cooktop and range hood
- Dishwasher
- Bathroom and laundry descaling
- Windows, tracks, sills and flyscreens
- Garage sweep and cobweb removal
If your rental has no garage or no dishwasher, tell us when you quote so the job is described correctly.
Deciding what to bundle
Many agents check the carpets closely, so end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning is a common combination. Our carpet steam cleaning uses truck-mounted hot water extraction and starts from $35/room. Spot and stain treatment is included, and pet odour treatment is available if you have had animals in the home. Carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours.
The oven is already part of the standard clean, so end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning only needs the window part added. Window cleaning starts from $8/window. Ask when you call how it fits with the tracks, sills and flyscreens that are already covered.
Bundling means one booking and one set of paperwork, which helps when you are juggling a removalist and a handback date.
Picking a time
The move-out week usually runs in a set order: pack, move the furniture out, clean, then hand back the keys. The clean works best once the property is empty and before the final inspection, so it helps to settle the date early.
Availability depends on our diary. We cannot promise same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning or weekend end of lease cleaning, and we will not suggest otherwise. If your handback date is close, or you need a weekend slot, call 0401 398 705 as early as you can and we will tell you what the diary allows.
If you are hoping to line up a clean the same week as your removalist, ask about dates when you get your quote, not the night before.
Before the cleaner arrives
A little preparation keeps the job focused on cleaning rather than working around your belongings.
- Remove all furniture, boxes and personal items, including from cupboards, wardrobes and the garage.
- Keep power and water connected until the clean is finished.
- Arrange access, whether that is you on site or a key arrangement agreed in advance.
- Take out rubbish and any food left in the fridge and pantry.
- Let us know about pets, existing stains or areas you are unsure about.
Many Mernda rentals are newer builds, but a clean home still collects grease in the oven and limescale in the bathroom, and these take time to remove.
After the clean
Walk through the property once the clean is done, with your entry condition report in hand if you have it. Take dated photos of the kitchen, bathrooms, carpets and windows before you return the keys.
If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. That guarantee is provided in writing. We do not offer a bond back guarantee for end of lease cleaning, because the bond decision rests with the landlord or agent. What we guarantee is the re-clean.

What affects the price
The final quote depends on property size and condition. A three-bedroom house with two bathrooms is a bigger job than a one-bedroom unit, and a well-kept home takes less work than one with baked-on oven grease or heavy limescale.
- The number of bedrooms, bathrooms and living areas
- The condition of the oven, cooktop, range hood and bathrooms
- How many rooms of carpet need steam cleaning
- How many windows you want cleaned
- Whether pet odour treatment is needed
The prices on this page are the starting points: Bond & End of Lease Cleaning from $280, carpet steam cleaning from $35/room and window cleaning from $8/window.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Cleaning your own rental is a fair option if you have the time, the right products and a way to reach the oven, the tracks and the high cobwebs. Many tenants find the oven, bathroom descaling and carpets the hardest parts to get right.
Booking makes sense when your move-out week is already full. A written re-clean guarantee also gives you something to fall back on if the agent finds a problem. Read your tenancy agreement first, as some agents expect carpets to be professionally cleaned.
A checklist to hand us
Having these details ready makes the quote faster and more accurate:
- Property address and whether it is a house, townhouse or unit
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Which rooms have carpet
- Number of windows, if you want window cleaning
- Pets in the property, and any odour or stain concerns
- Your handback date and the days that suit you
- How we will get access
Keeping your paperwork
Keep everything together until your bond has been dealt with. That means your quote, the written 7-day re-clean guarantee, the receipt, your entry and exit condition reports and your photos. Whether you call it end of tenancy cleaning or vacate cleaning, the paperwork shows what was done and when. If the agent raises an issue, send it to us promptly so it falls within the 7 days.
