Define the property and the reason for the clean
For a home, note the rental handover date, rooms, furnishings and property condition. For an office or business, list work areas, shared spaces, equipment and any building access window. Keep commercial lease obligations separate from residential tenancy requirements.
Create a task list for the actual space
Identify the rooms and surfaces to quote. List carpets, appliances, windows, upholstery, kitchens, bathrooms or other extras separately and ask what is included or excluded. Do not assume a generic “vacate clean” covers specialist, repair or hazardous work.
Compare written scope and access
Provide the address, property type, timing, access instructions and the same task list to each provider. Compare current price basis, inclusions, exclusions and change terms in writing. Confirm that the provider can service the exact location and appointment window.
Keep deposit and tenancy decisions separate
A cleaner performs agreed work; it cannot determine a bond, commercial security-deposit or lease-dispute outcome. Check the relevant agreement and official authority for legal questions. No cleaning result or deposit return is promised.
