·Google Review“Booked for a two-bedroom apartment with a week's notice. They spent the longest on the oven and the shower screen, which is exactly where our last inspection got picked up. The agent signed off the same afternoon and the full bond came back.”

·Google Review“Very thorough on the kitchen and bathrooms. Carpets were booked separately and took longer to dry than I'd planned for, so leave yourself a day before the inspection rather than cutting it fine.”

When a Alphington rental is ready to hand back, the useful question is not whether it looks generally tidy. It is whether the rooms, fixtures, cupboards, tracks and floors match the inspection scope agreed before the clean.
A Alphington rental handover can involve established inner-north homes and newer townhouses, from compact rentals through to larger family layouts, so bedrooms and bathrooms are only part of the quote. Cleaning support near Fairfield and Ivanhoe also affects how much time the team needs on site.
Alphington sits in our inner melbourne service area, with nearby move-out cleaning support around Fairfield, Ivanhoe and Northcote. That helps us plan realistic travel, access and key-return timing when inspection dates move.
Before we confirm a Alphington move-out clean, we ask about tight handover gaps between tenants, likely inspection issues such as skirting dust, and practical notes like clear notes about stairs or lifts. Sharing those details early helps keep keys, access and final-inspection timing realistic.
A Alphington move-out quote is checked against your property notes, photos and access details. That helps us ask the right questions about parking, internal glass, storage areas, garages and any add-ons before the booking is accepted.
If the Alphington agent has already mentioned oven grease, bathroom screens, pet hair, carpet cleaning or exterior glass, send those notes with the quote request. They can change the time on site and whether an add-on is needed.
The guarantee is tied to the agreed cleaning scope. If a Alphington agent reports an eligible missed cleaning item within 72 hours, we check it against the quote and arrange one return visit where access can be provided.
The guarantee does not cover permanent stains, damaged surfaces, worn finishes, unpaid rent, rubbish removal, pest treatment, mould inside silicone, or work that was excluded from your quote. This is why we list carpet steam cleaning, exterior windows, balconies, garages and key pickup separately before you book.
Cooking areas are checked carefully because agents often photograph ovens, rangehoods and cabinet interiors. Fridge, dishwasher and microwave interiors can be added when requested.
Bathrooms include shower screens, basins, toilets, mirrors, tapware, vanities and accessible vents. In Alphington, extra bathrooms are listed clearly because they change the time on site.
Wardrobes, cupboards, doors, handles, switches, skirting boards, accessible fittings, storage areas and hard surfaces are dusted and wiped once belongings are removed.
Hard floors are swept and mopped, carpets are vacuumed, and accessible internal glass, sills and tracks are cleaned. Steam cleaning and outside glass are priced separately.
Laundry benches, sinks, tapware, cabinet interiors and floors are included. Garages, balconies, courtyards, flea treatment and key pickup/drop-off can be added if they are requested before the booking is accepted.
For Alphington, From $299 + GST is the published starting point. The confirmed figure depends on bathrooms, storeys, condition, access and whether extras such as carpet steam cleaning are needed.
| Property | Move out cleaning, from |
|---|---|
| 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom | $299 |
| 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom | $399 |
| 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms | $429 |
| 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms | $529 |
| 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms | $579 |
| 5+ bedrooms, 2 bathrooms | $679 |
Prices exclude GST and assume standard property condition. Each extra bathroom adds $30, while carpet steam cleaning, exterior windows, balconies, garages and key movement are quoted separately.
The access plan matters as much as the checklist. For Alphington, tell us about keys, parking, shared entries, garages, balconies and any exterior glass you want included.
Book after furniture removal, with power and water still connected. Keep your entry condition report handy, point out pre-existing damage and leave enough time between the clean and final inspection for a walkthrough.
For nearby moves around Fairfield, Ivanhoe and Northcote, the same quote process applies: send room counts, condition notes and your key-return date through the quote form, then we confirm the scope in writing.
Choose the service wording that matches your handover: end of lease, vacate, move-out or bond cleaning.
From $299 + GST. Move out cleaning uses the end-of-lease room-count guide, then adjusts for bathrooms, condition, access and requested add-ons.

Share the room counts, condition, access details and the date you need the clean.
Confirm the price, included work and any extras before your booking is accepted.
We work through the agreed scope. Leave time for a walk-through before returning the keys.
Our bond-back cleaning cover
Report an in-scope end-of-lease cleaning issue within 72 hours, with evidence and access, for one complimentary re-clean. Conditions apply.
Our bond-back service addresses the cleaning work in your agreed scope. Bond decisions can also involve rent, damage and other tenancy matters, so a clean cannot guarantee the return of the entire bond.

Before you book
Clear answers about scope, timing, price and bond-back re-clean support.
Talk to the teamUse From $299 + GST as the base guide for a small standard property. Larger Alphington rentals, extra bathrooms, heavy soil and add-ons are confirmed in writing before booking.
Carpet steam cleaning, exterior windows, balconies, garages, courtyards, flea treatment and key pickup/drop-off are quoted separately. List them before booking so the Alphington scope is accurate.
Book after furniture and belongings are removed. If items are still inside, the team cannot reach every inspection surface and the written scope may need to be adjusted.
Bond-back support means one eligible re-clean for included cleaning items reported with evidence within 72 hours. It does not promise the return of the whole bond because non-cleaning issues can affect that outcome.
The standard empty-property scope covers kitchens, bathrooms, laundry, bedrooms, living areas, floors, internal windows, sills, tracks, switches, doors, skirting boards and empty cupboards. Extras are confirmed before booking.
Steam cleaning uses different equipment, so it is added per carpeted room. Tell us the carpet count early so the Alphington booking has enough drying time before inspection.
