🧼 What’s the Difference Between Bond, Exit, Vacate & End-of-Lease Cleaning in Geelong?

Spoiler alert: they’re basically the same thing — but the details matter.

If you’re moving house in Geelong, you’ve probably heard a few terms thrown around:

  • End-of-lease cleaning

  • Bond cleaning

  • Vacate cleaning

  • Exit cleaning

And if you’re feeling confused — you’re not alone.

Let’s break it down, Pinkerton-style 👇

🧹 The Short Answer: Same Job, Different Names

These terms all refer to the deep clean required when you move out of a rental property.

Real estate agents, landlords, and property managers expect the property to be returned in top condition — and that’s where a professional cleaning service like ours steps in.

Some people call it:

  • Bond Cleaning — because your bond is at stake

  • Vacate Cleaning — because you're vacating the property

  • Exit Cleaning — because you're exiting the lease

  • End-of-Lease Cleaning — because, well… the lease has ended

✅ Different names.
✅ Same high standard required.
✅ One local team who does it all — that’s us.

💥 What Does an End-of-Lease Clean Include?

At Pinkerton Property Care, our end-of-lease cleaning in Geelong includes all the big (and often overlooked) things agents will check:

  • ✅ Oven and rangehood deep clean

  • ✅ Dishwasher filter cleaned

  • ✅ Skirting boards, light fittings, and fans

  • ✅ Walls, windows, and sills

  • ✅ Bathrooms scrubbed top to bottom

  • ✅ Floors vacuumed and mopped

  • ✅ Kitchen cupboards cleaned inside and out

  • ✅ Final sparkle so your property is 100% inspection-ready

We’re also real-estate agent approved – which means we clean to their checklist, not just yours.
