Moving out of an Auburn rental: the end of lease clean
The NSW standard is reasonably clean, judged against the start of the tenancy, fair wear and tear excepted. That's the end of lease clean, which some Sydney businesses call an exit clean. You can do it yourself, or hand it to a local business and spend your time on boxes and keys.
Your landlord or agent does a final inspection once the home is empty, and must give you a reasonable opportunity to attend. Go if you can.
Not moving? A regular clean every week or fortnight suits most households, and a deep clean is the reset if things have slipped.
Count back two weeks: our Auburn move-out advice
Count back two weeks from your last day. Book the Cumberland clean-up first, then the clean for after the truck, then ask for the final inspection time. Go along with your entry report in hand.
