A vacate clean is usually the last thing you do before you hand over the keys. You don’t want to hire someone to clean the place while you’re still packing up. It’s the last stage of returning the place to its original state.

The purpose of the bond is to cover any cleaning or repairs the landlord might have to do to get the place ready for the next tenant. If there’s nothing left to do, there’s no reason to keep your bond.

What are the benefits of using a vacate cleaning service?

Regardless of how thoroughly you might have cleaned the house yourself, the rental agent may still hire a cleaning company to clean some hard-to-reach corners of the house or other parts that you might have neglected.

So why not just let them sort out a cleaner? You could, but who do you think will be more motivated to negotiate the best price? You’re also more likely to hire a cleaner to get the place “good enough”, rather than the landlord who may hire a cleaner to get it “in tip top condition”, which will take a lot more time and cost you a lot more.

Just imagine the trouble if you had already moved out of town. Choosing your own professional vacate clean provider will undoubtedly save you a mountain of stress.
