About Cleaner Scout

About Cleaner Scout

We find the cleaner. We never clean.

Cleaner Scout finds a local cleaning business for the clean you need, so you don't have to ring around. The business quotes, does the cleaning and invoices you. We're the scout, never the cleaner.

What kind of clean do you need?

What kind of clean?

We find the cleaner. The cleaning business quotes, cleans and invoices you directly.

The idea

A scout looks so you don't have to. Tell us the clean once, and a local cleaning business calls you to talk it through.

People come to us with all sorts of deadlines: a key handback on Friday, a home going on the market, a house that's got away from them. We ask a few quick questions and the job goes to cleaning businesses near you.

What we do

We cover six kinds of home clean: a regular clean, an end of lease clean, a deep or spring clean, a move-in or pre-sale clean, an after-builders clean and a holiday rental clean. In Victoria we leave the last two out for now.

We use the word people use where you live: a bond clean in Queensland and the NT, a vacate clean in WA and an end of lease clean everywhere else.

We also write the guides and renting rules pages here, so you know what your state asks before anyone quotes. Our editorial policy explains where those facts come from.

What we leave to the cleaning business

  • Calling you and talking through the job.
  • The quote, and agreeing the price and the day with you.
  • The cleaning itself.
  • The invoice.

What we don't do

We don't clean, and we don't employ, supply, schedule or pay cleaners. We don't show prices either, because a business quotes once it understands the job and only it can tell you what yours will come to.

Who's behind it

Cleaner Scout is the business you're dealing with when you use this site, and our ABN is in the footer of every page. We work in Australia and New Zealand, and there's one way to send a job: the form.

Where this comes from

Tenancy and bond rules change, so check with your state's renting authority before you rely on a date or a rule. How we write and check these pages.
