Cleaning Tips for Your End of Lease Clean
Published on May 22, 2024 by Houseproud
Coming to the end of a lease means that you have to do one of the biggest stressors in modern life! If you leave a rental property in an unclean condition, the rental agent may take money out of your bond to pay for cleaning services before others move in. Here are some tips for your end of lease clean to help get the job done more efficiently and get your bond back in full. Don’t forget those nasty tasks like the insides of your cupboards and those marks on the walls.
Start early
Cleaning a whole property inside and out is no small task. This means that you should start cleaning early – don’t just plan to clean on the day that you vacate as you might not have enough time to get everything done! Start cleaning the property in bits at least a week before if you can do so, as it will make it a lot easier and take the stress out of trying to get everything done at once.
Treat it as an opportunity to get rid of things you no longer want or need
Cleaning up at the end of your lease is also a very good time to declutter your life by getting rid of belongings you no longer want or need. Get rid of old clothes you don’t need, old bottles of moisturiser you never use, old utensils and so on. Because seriously, if you don’t already use them it’s not worth having them around.
Use quality products to clean
Water and a cloth work for some things but not others. If you are doing your end of lease clean, then you should get some quality cleaning products to help get the job done more quickly and more effectively.
Get your carpets professionally cleaned
Some rental agencies require you to get your carpets professionally steam cleaned as part of the lease agreement. Even if this isn’t required for your lease, it’s always a good idea to do it as your carpets can get pretty dirty over the course of your tenancy. Make sure to remove all your furniture so that the carpets can be completely and properly cleaned.
