·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 Richmond 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 Richmond rental handover can involve Victorian and Edwardian homes, units and townhouses, from compact rentals through to larger family layouts, so bedrooms and bathrooms are only part of the quote. Yarra access and key planning also affects how much time the team needs on site.
Richmond sits in our inner melbourne service area, with nearby vacate cleaning support around Cremorne, Burnley and East Melbourne. That helps us plan realistic travel, access and key-return timing when inspection dates move.
Before we confirm a Richmond vacate clean, we ask about end-of-month key returns, likely inspection issues such as window tracks, and practical notes like photos of any pre-existing marks. Sharing those details early helps keep keys, access and final-inspection timing realistic.
The guarantee is tied to the agreed cleaning scope. If a Richmond 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 Richmond, extra bathrooms are listed clearly because they change the time on site.
Once the property is empty, the team can reach wardrobe interiors, skirting boards, switches, handles, doors, storage areas and the surfaces that are usually hidden during the tenancy.
Floors and tracks often show the move-out dust first. Tell us how many carpeted rooms and exterior windows need attention in Richmond so the quote is complete.
Laundry areas cover benches, sinks, tapware, cupboards and floors. Original floorboards, deep skirting boards, picture rails and sash window tracks should be mentioned if you expect those areas to be checked closely.
For Richmond, 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 | Vacate 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 Richmond, 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 Cremorne, Burnley and East Melbourne, 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. Vacate cleaning uses the end-of-lease room-count guide, then adjusts for bathrooms, condition, access and requested add-ons.

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 teamBond-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.
Yes. Vacate cleaning is priced for an empty property because the team needs access to cupboards, floors, skirting boards, doors and surfaces that furniture can block. If furniture is still in place, tell us before booking so the scope is realistic.
Remove belongings, empty cupboards, leave power and water connected, and share keys, parking and agent timing. For Richmond, also mention lift bookings, permit parking, compact kitchens, bathroom detail and key handover timing.
From $299 + GST is the starting guide for a standard one-bedroom, one-bathroom vacate clean in Richmond. The final quote depends on bedrooms, bathrooms, condition, access and add-ons such as carpet steam cleaning or exterior windows.
