Moving out of a rental in Vermont South (postcode 3133) 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 for end of lease cleaning Vermont South tenants, using what we state on our site. We pay particular attention to pets and carpets, because that is where many exit inspections get stuck.
Covering Vermont South
Vermont South is one of the 386 Melbourne metro suburbs we service, in the city’s eastern region. We are based in Bundoora and travel to you. You can book by phone or through the free quote form.
The suburb is known for its shopping centre on Burwood Highway, and the 75 tram runs along that road. Housing is mostly detached houses, with some units and townhouses mixed in. That affects the job. A house end of lease cleaning usually means more rooms, more carpet and often a garage. Apartment end of lease cleaning is usually smaller, though kitchens and bathrooms still get inspected closely. If you are moving to nearby Glen Waverley or Burwood East, the same booking process applies.
From quote to booking
- Call 0401 398 705. Quotes over the phone usually take under five minutes.
- Or send the quote form. We reply the same business day.
- You receive a firm price for the property, so you know the cost before you commit.
- Booking is usually two to four business days out, depending on the diary.
- Your 7-day re-clean guarantee is provided in writing.
Whichever way you ask for an end of lease cleaning quote, have the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, the carpeted rooms, and any pets that lived in the property ready.
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. A one-bedroom unit and a four-bedroom family home are different jobs, so please call for a price based on your place.
If you are searching for cheap end of lease cleaning or the best end of lease cleaning in Vermont South, we would rather you compare than take a headline number on trust. Check what each quote includes, whether the guarantee is in writing, and the price per room for carpet work. When you compare end of lease cleaning prices, a low figure that leaves out the oven or the windows can cost more once you add them.
What is included
Our bond cleaning is done to the REIV exit condition standard. This is what a standard 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
Professional bond cleaners work through the property room by room against this kind of list. That is the same approach an agent takes at the final inspection, whether you call it vacate cleaning, exit cleaning, move out cleaning or end of tenancy cleaning.
Deciding what to bundle
Carpets are the most common add-on, and the one pet owners should think about first. Our carpet steam cleaning uses truck-mounted hot water extraction and starts from $35 per room. It includes spot and stain treatment. Pet odour treatment is available, so mention your animals when you ask for a quote. Carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours.
End of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning keeps the work in one visit and one booking. Many leases require professional carpet cleaning at exit, and agents often ask for the receipt, so check your agreement.
Window cleaning starts from $8 per window. End of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning is a common combination, because the oven is covered in the standard clean and windows are cleaned inside the same visit. If you have many windows, ask for the total in your quote.
Be realistic about older stains and long-term pet damage. Treatment can improve a carpet, but the result depends on its condition.
Picking a time
Availability depends on the diary. We do not promise same day end of lease cleaning or last minute end of lease cleaning, and we cannot confirm weekend end of lease cleaning without checking the diary first. If your handover date is close, call 0401 398 705 as early as you can and we will tell you what is open.
Plan the order of events. The clean should happen after your furniture is out and, if possible, after the carpets are done or booked for the same visit. Leave a little time before the final inspection in case the agent raises something.
Before the cleaner arrives
A few tasks on your side make the visit go more smoothly:
- Remove all furniture, belongings and rubbish, including from the garage and wardrobes.
- Keep power and water on.
- Take pets elsewhere on the day. Animals are stressed by cleaning equipment, and open doors cause problems.
- Vacuum up loose pet hair, and take down pet gates, litter trays and bowls.
- Point out stains, scratches and odours when you request the quote, rather than on the day.
If your pet has marked a particular spot, tell us. It changes how the carpet is treated.
After the clean
Walk through the property once the cleaner has finished, if you can, and check the areas an agent looks at first: oven, bathroom, windows and carpets. Keep off freshly steamed carpet until it is dry. That is usually a few hours, but humid weather and thick carpet can slow it down.
Our 7-day re-clean guarantee is in writing. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. This is not a bond back guarantee. The bond decision belongs to the agent or landlord and the tenancy authority, and it can include things that are not cleaning, such as damage or unpaid rent. What we guarantee is the re-clean. If you want bond back guarantee end of lease cleaning, be wary of anyone promising an outcome they do not control.
About us
Australia Bond Cleaning is a Bundoora-based Melbourne cleaning business that services metro suburbs including Vermont South. We focus on bond and end of lease cleaning, carpet steam cleaning and window cleaning. The details on this page are what we state on our site, and we would rather you ask us a question than guess.
What affects the price
The final quote depends on property size and condition. These factors usually matter most:
- Number of bedrooms, bathrooms and living areas
- How many rooms are carpeted, and whether pets lived there
- Number of windows and how many have tracks and flyscreens
- The state of the oven, bathrooms and kitchen
- Whether there is a garage
A tidy unit that has been looked after is a different job from a house with heavy build-up. Being honest about the condition helps us give you a price that holds.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Some tenants clean it themselves and do it well. The risk is time. Ovens, descaling, tracks and carpets take longer than expected, and you are often juggling a handover, keys and a truck at the same time. Hiring or buying a carpet machine rarely matches truck-mounted hot water extraction either.
If you book end of lease cleaners, you pay for the time and equipment and get the written guarantee. If you do it yourself, you control the cost but carry the risk of a failed inspection. Read your lease and the agent’s cleaning checklist before deciding.
A checklist to hand us
When you phone or fill in the form, have these details to hand:
- Address, and whether it is a house or an apartment
- Bedrooms, bathrooms and carpeted rooms
- Number of windows, if you know it
- Pets, and any odour or stain areas
- Your handover or inspection date
- Any items the agent’s checklist specifically mentions
Keeping your paperwork
Keep your written quote, the booking confirmation and your 7-day re-clean guarantee together with your condition report and any receipts. If the agent raises a cleaning issue, contact us promptly within the 7 days with the details. Photos of the property after the clean can also be useful for your own records.
