Real feedback from property managers and business owners who rely on The Lease Cleaners.
“Fair price, no upselling on the phone, and the quote didn't change on the day. Two cleaners, about five hours for a three-bedroom townhouse. The skirting boards and window tracks were the give-away that they'd actually done the detail work.”

·Google Review“I'd already cleaned and thought I just needed a tidy-up. They talked me through what agents actually check and did the rangehood filter and exhaust fans I'd never touched in two years. Worth it.”

·Google Review“Old place with sash windows and a lot of dust traps in the cornices. They didn't rush it and didn't pretend the worn floorboards were something a clean could fix. Straight answers, good result.”

For South Melbourne tenants, move-out cleaning works best once furniture is out and the cleaner can reach the surfaces the agent will check. We confirm the scope first, then clean against that written plan.
For South Melbourne, the quote starts with room counts and condition, then adds local details such as cleaning support near southbank and albert park and the surfaces most likely to matter at inspection.
The same move-out cleaning process applies across Southbank, Albert Park and South Wharf: written scope first, then a clean matched to the actual property layout, condition and inspection timing.
Before we confirm a South Melbourne move-out clean, we ask about weekend move-out pressure, likely inspection issues such as door handles and switches, and practical notes like the entry condition report. Sharing those details early helps keep keys, access and final-inspection timing realistic.
For South Melbourne, details such as parking, key access, room layout and the agent checklist help us confirm the right cleaning scope before booking.
The goal is an inspection-ready South Melbourne rental, not a cosmetic tidy while boxes remain inside. Empty rooms let the team reach wardrobe interiors, floor edges, cabinet shelves and the areas a property manager is likely to photograph.
Bond outcomes can involve rent, damage and condition-report issues, so we keep the cleaning promise specific. Eligible in-scope items reported with evidence within 72 hours can receive one complimentary re-clean.
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.
Bathroom cleaning focuses on the visible inspection items: screen marks, soap build-up, basins, toilets, mirrors, vanity storage and floor edges.
Wardrobes, cupboards, doors, handles, switches, skirting boards, accessible fittings, storage areas and hard surfaces are dusted and wiped once belongings are removed.
Floors and tracks often show the move-out dust first. Tell us how many carpeted rooms and exterior windows need attention in South Melbourne so the quote is complete.
Add-ons are kept separate so there is no confusion on cleaning day. Garages, balconies, courtyards, flea treatment and key movement need to be confirmed before the job is accepted.
The starting guide for South Melbourne move-out cleaning is From $299 + GST for a standard one-bedroom, one-bathroom property. Larger homes are quoted by room count, bathroom count, condition and requested add-ons.
