Moving out of a rental in Tonimbuk (postcode 3815) 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 looking for end of lease cleaning Tonimbuk, the sections below set out what we do, what we start from, and how to get a firm price.
Covering Tonimbuk
Tonimbuk is one of the 386 metro suburbs we service, in Melbourne’s south-east region within Cardinia Shire. We are based in Bundoora, and you can book by phone or through the quote form.
Tonimbuk is a rural, bushland-fringe locality near Bunyip State Park, so most rentals are houses on larger blocks rather than apartments. Many of these homes are older: weatherboard or period-style, with timber floors, original fittings and fireplaces or heaters. Older features collect dust and grime in different places from a new build, and the exit clean has to deal with them. If you are in a unit, apartment end of lease cleaning follows the same checklist with fewer rooms. House end of lease cleaning in Tonimbuk usually takes more time because of the extra space and detail.

Asking for an end of lease cleaning quote Tonimbuk early gives you the most choice of dates.
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. Call 0401 398 705 for a price on your home.
People often search for cheap end of lease cleaning or the best end of lease cleaning in Tonimbuk. A low number alone does not tell you much, so compare these things between providers:
- What is listed as included (oven, range hood, windows, inside cupboards).
- Whether a re-clean guarantee is in writing and how many days it runs.
- The carpet price per room, and whether stain treatment is included.
- Whether the cleaning is done to the REIV exit condition standard.
When you compare end of lease cleaning prices Tonimbuk, line up these points first and the price difference usually makes sense.
What is included
Our vacate cleaning is done to the REIV exit condition standard. It 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 scope our professional bond cleaners work through for exit cleaning in Tonimbuk. In an older home, the window tracks and sills can take more effort than you expect, and the bathroom may have decades of scale on tiles and fittings. Descaling is part of the clean, but the condition of the property still affects the final quote.
Deciding what to bundle
Most agents check carpets and windows closely at the final inspection, so it often makes sense to book them with the main clean.
- Carpet steam cleaning is from $35 per room. It uses truck-mounted hot water extraction and includes spot and stain treatment. Pet odour treatment is available. Carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours.
- Window cleaning is from $8 per window.
End of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning in Tonimbuk is a common combination for houses with several bedrooms. If you want end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning, the oven is already part of the standard clean. Windows are priced per window, so older homes with many panes or sash windows should be counted when you ask for a quote.
Picking a time
Availability depends on the diary, and we do not promise dates in advance. If you need same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning or weekend end of lease cleaning in Tonimbuk, call 0401 398 705 as early as you can and ask what is open. Do not wait until the last few days of your lease if you can avoid it.
Book the clean for after your furniture is out and before the final inspection, with a day or two spare if possible. That gap gives you room to fix anything the agent raises.
Before the cleaner arrives
A few small jobs on your side make the clean more effective:
- Remove all belongings, furniture and rubbish, including from the garage and outdoor areas.
- Empty the fridge and freezer if they belong to you, and switch them off if they are going.
- Take down your own curtains, hooks and wall fixings, and patch what you are responsible for.
- Make sure power and water are connected on the day.
- Let us know about locked rooms, sheds or anything we should treat carefully.
In a period home, tell us about anything fragile, such as leadlight panes, painted-shut windows or old timber sills, so we can plan around it.
After the clean
Walk through the property before the inspection. Check the oven, the bathroom, the window tracks and the cupboards. If the carpets were steamed, they are usually walk-on dry within a few hours, but keep the doors and windows open if you can.
If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. That guarantee is in writing. It covers the re-clean. We cannot guarantee a particular outcome with your bond, because that decision belongs to the agent or landlord. Anyone offering a bond back guarantee for end of lease cleaning in Tonimbuk is promising something outside their control, so look at what is actually in writing.

Australia Bond Cleaning is a Melbourne cleaning business based in Bundoora. We do bond cleaning, carpet steam cleaning and window cleaning for tenants across Melbourne’s metro suburbs.

What affects the price
The starting price is $280 for Bond & End of Lease Cleaning. The final quote depends on property size and condition. These are the main factors:
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- How much grease has built up in the oven, cooktop and range hood
- Scale in bathrooms and laundries, which is common in older fittings
- Number of windows, tracks and flyscreens
- Whether you add carpet steam cleaning or window cleaning
- Whether a garage or extra rooms need work
Larger period houses usually cost more than a small unit, simply because there is more to clean. Tell us what the property is like when you call and the quote will be firmer.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Many tenants clean for themselves, and that can work if you have the time, the right products and a good eye for what agents look for. The difficult parts are usually the oven, the range hood, window tracks, descaling and carpets. Carpet steam cleaning needs equipment most people do not own.
Booking professional bond cleaners makes more sense when you are juggling a move, work and keys, or when the home has older features that take longer. A middle option is to do the packing and rubbish removal yourself and book the clean, and carpets if needed, for the rest. Whichever you choose, the agent will compare the property against the entry condition report.
A checklist to hand us
When you call or fill in the form, have these details ready so the quote is accurate:
- Property type: house or apartment, and whether it is an older or period home
- Bedrooms, bathrooms and living areas
- Number of windows, and any sash or leadlight windows
- Carpeted rooms, plus any pet odour or stains
- Your lease end date and final inspection date
- Anything in the exit requirements from your agent
Keeping your paperwork
Keep your invoice and our written re-clean guarantee in a safe place. Also keep your entry condition report, any exit list from the agent, and photos of the property taken after the clean. If the agent raises a cleaning point, you can send them to us within the 7 days and we will return to fix it free of charge. Good records also help if there is any disagreement about the condition of the property. Move out cleaning and end of tenancy cleaning in Tonimbuk goes more smoothly when the paperwork is in order.
