Moving out of a rental in Mont Albert North (postcode 3129) 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 are searching for end of lease cleaning Mont Albert North, the short version is that our Bond & End of Lease Cleaning starts from $280, follows the REIV exit condition standard, and comes with a 7-day re-clean guarantee in writing.
Covering Mont Albert North
Mont Albert North is one of the 386 metro suburbs we service across Melbourne. It sits in the eastern region, in the City of Whitehorse, and is mostly residential, with detached houses alongside a smaller number of units and townhouses. Box Hill, with its train station and shopping centre, is close by, and so is Mont Albert.
We are based in Bundoora and work across the metro area, so we are used to tenants who are leaving one suburb and starting a lease in another. You can book by phone on 0401 398 705 or send your details through the free quote form.
From quote to booking
When you are moving between suburbs, the fewer back-and-forth steps the better. This is how it works:
- Call 0401 398 705. Most quotes over the phone take under five minutes.
- Or send the free quote form and we reply the same business day.
- You receive a firm price for the job based on what you have told us about the property.
- You book a date. Bookings are usually made within two to four business days, depending on the diary.
- Your 7-day re-clean guarantee is provided in writing.
An end of lease cleaning quote is easiest to give accurately when you can tell us the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, whether the carpets need attention, and how many windows there are.
What the price starts from
Bond & End of Lease Cleaning starts from $280. That is a starting point, not a flat rate for every property, so please call for a price on your particular home.
People often search for cheap end of lease cleaning or the best end of lease cleaning in Mont Albert North. Neither phrase tells you much on its own. A more useful way to compare end of lease cleaning prices is to look at what each quote includes, whether the guarantee is in writing, and what carpets cost per room. A low headline figure that leaves out the oven, the windows or the carpets can end up costing more once you add them back in.
What is included
Our vacate cleaning is done to the REIV exit condition standard. 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
This is the same list whether you are leaving a flat or a family home. Exit cleaning for an apartment usually means fewer rooms and often no garage of your own. House end of lease cleaning in Mont Albert North tends to involve more rooms, more windows and sometimes a garage, which is why the final figure depends on the property.
Deciding what to bundle
Your lease or the agent’s cleaning list will often mention carpets and windows specifically, so it is worth deciding early whether to book them with the main clean.
Carpets. Carpet steam cleaning is from $35 per room. We use truck-mounted hot water extraction, and the price includes spot and stain treatment. Pet odour treatment is available if an animal has lived in the home. Carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours, which helps if you still have a last load to carry out. If you want end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning, mention it when you call so it is built into one quote.
Windows. Window cleaning is from $8 per window. If you want end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning, the oven is already part of the standard clean, so the window count is the main extra to confirm. Count them before you call, including any in the laundry and garage.
Picking a time
Moving dates rarely line up neatly. The clean usually happens after your furniture is out and before the final inspection, which leaves a narrow gap.
Availability depends on the diary. If you are hoping for same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning or weekend end of lease cleaning in Mont Albert North, we cannot promise any of those in advance. The best thing you can do is call 0401 398 705 as early as possible once you know your handover date, and we will tell you what the diary allows. Giving us a few days of flexibility can make a real difference.
Before the cleaner arrives
A few simple steps help the clean go smoothly:
- Remove your furniture, boxes, rubbish and personal items, including food from the fridge and pantry.
- Empty the wardrobes, cupboards and drawers so they can be cleaned inside.
- Make sure the cleaner can get in, and tell us about any key, lockbox or building access arrangements.
- Let us know about anything unusual, such as heavy mould, pet damage or a very dirty oven.
- If you have booked carpets, move anything off the floor so the whole room can be treated.
If you are running between two properties, an empty home is the best way to keep the clean on schedule.
After the clean
Do a walk-through and compare the result to your list. If you have booked carpet cleaning, give the carpets a few hours to dry before moving heavy items across them.
Keep your 7-day re-clean guarantee handy. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. People sometimes look for bond back guarantee end of lease cleaning, but we do not guarantee a bond refund, because that decision is made by the agent or landlord and covers more than cleaning. What we do guarantee, in writing, is the re-clean.

What affects the price
The starting price of $280 is a base, and the final quote depends on property size and condition. The main factors are:
- The number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Whether it is an apartment or a house, and whether there is a garage
- The condition of the oven, bathrooms and general surfaces
- The number of windows, at $8 per window if you add them
- The number of carpeted rooms, at $35 per room if you add steam cleaning
- Extras such as pet odour treatment
We do not quote other prices online, so please call for a quote or use the free quote form.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Cleaning it yourself saves money, but it takes time you may not have during a move. Descaling bathrooms, degreasing an oven and range hood, and cleaning window tracks are the jobs that most often run over. Hiring a carpet steam cleaner is another task that is hard to fit in.
Booking makes sense if your timeline is tight, if you are moving across suburbs, or if the property has been lived in for a long time. If you have a few free days and a short list, doing it yourself can work. Either way, check the agent’s cleaning list first, because it sets the standard the property will be inspected against.
A checklist to hand us
Have these details ready when you call or fill in the form:
- Your address in Mont Albert North and whether it is an apartment, unit or house
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Number of carpeted rooms, and any stains or pet odour
- Approximate number of windows
- Your handover or inspection date, and any flexibility around it
- Access arrangements for the clean
Keeping your paperwork
Keep your written quote, booking confirmation and 7-day re-clean guarantee together with your lease and your entry condition report. Take dated photos of each room after the clean, and keep your receipts. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue, having these on hand lets you pass the details to us quickly so we can arrange the re-clean within the 7 days.
