Domestic Cleaners
2 businesses you can compare and book online.
Domestic cleaners keep homes on top of the jobs that eat weekends: bathrooms, kitchens, floors, dusting and tidying, usually on weekly or fortnightly schedules, plus one-off deep cleans and spring cleans. People book them when work and family squeeze out time, before and after hosting, during pregnancy or recovery, or through NDIS and aged care funding.
OneBookPlus lets you compare local cleaners, read reviews from nearby households, and book a clean online in minutes. See rates, availability and what is included before you commit, then set up a recurring booking with the same cleaner each visit rather than a different stranger every fortnight.

How to choose a good Cleaner
- No licence applies to domestic cleaning; ask for police checks and public liability insurance instead.
- Decide between an insured company with backup staff and a cheaper solo operator you vet yourself.
- Read reviews for reliability and consistency, the two things that matter most in recurring cleaning.
- Confirm whether products and equipment are supplied, and mention preferences like non-toxic or fragrance-free.
- Agree a written task list per visit so 'a clean' means the same thing to both of you.
- For NDIS or home care package funding, check the provider is registered or accepts plan management.
Questions to ask before you book
Frequently asked questions
Do house cleaners need a licence in Australia?
No, there is no occupational licence for domestic cleaning in any state. That puts the onus on you: ask for a national police check, confirm public liability insurance covers accidental damage, and read recent reviews. Established companies usually vet their staff; with independents, ask directly.
How much does a regular house clean cost?
Most households pay $100 to $160 per visit for a standard two or three bedroom home cleaned fortnightly, or $35 to $60 an hour. First cleans usually cost more because the cleaner is bringing the home up to a maintainable standard. Weekly service often earns a better per-visit rate.
Should I hire an independent cleaner or a cleaning company?
Independents are often cheaper and you deal with one person, but you carry more risk around insurance, police checks and cover when they are sick. Companies cost more per hour but bring vetting, insurance, backup staff and a complaints process. Either can be excellent; check reviews and insurance regardless.
