5- End-of-lease (bond) cleans are tenant-paid and bond-release-blocking — speed matters: send the invoice the moment keys are returned so the bond isn't held up at the agent's end.
- Bond return disputes hinge on photo evidence — time-stamped before/after photos against each inclusion item resolve almost every agent pushback in hours instead of weeks.

- Inclusions vary state-by-state under each tenancy authority (QLD RTA, NSW Fair Trading, VIC CAV, SA CBS, WA DMIRS, TAS CBOS, ACT ORS, NT CAFL) — the accepted quote should make the scope explicit before you start.
- Re-clean requests track an agency's behaviour over time — agencies that routinely request re-cleans on the same inclusions are useful to price up on future jobs or decline politely.
- GST applies to bond cleans like any other service — OneBookPlus calculates 10% GST automatically and prints your ABN on every invoice, BAS-ready at quarter-end.
Built for Bond Clean Reality
Six features bond cleaners actually use
Generic invoicing tools won't defend a bond return. End-of-lease cleaning needs structured inclusions, photo evidence, and re-clean tracking — purpose-built for the tenant/agent/cleaner triangle.
Inclusions-Based Quoting
Quote bond cleans from a structured inclusions checklist — bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, oven, carpets, windows, garage, outdoor. The tenant sees exactly what's covered and what's extra before they accept.
Before/After Photo Evidence
Stamp every inclusion item with before/after photos from your phone. When the agent pushes back on a kitchen or a single grout line, you reply with a time-stamped photo grid — bond returns resolve in minutes, not days.
Re-Clean Tracking
Agents occasionally request a re-clean. Track which jobs got pushed back, which inclusion was disputed, and whether the re-clean was billable — so you can spot which agencies are reasonable and which to price up.
Same-Day Invoicing
Bond cleans clear on the day. Invoice as soon as the keys are dropped, with a Pay Now link — most tenants pay before they've finished their final agent inspection so the bond release isn't held up.
Property + Agent CRM
Same agencies, same property managers, repeat work. Track every property you've bond-cleaned, which agent referred it, and what they paid — so when an agent calls about an emergency turnover next Tuesday, you already have the property history.
State-Specific Inclusions
Bond clean expectations vary state-by-state — QLD RTA, NSW Fair Trading, VIC CAV, SA CBS, WA DMIRS, TAS CBOS, ACT ORS, NT CAFL. Start from a state-default inclusions template and tune to the specific property.

Bond Clean Workflow
From quote to bond release
Four steps that match how bond cleans actually run — every step backed by structured data, not memory.
Quote from the inclusions list
Start from a state-default bond clean template. Tick what's included, add extras (oven, carpets, windows, garage), and send. Tenant accepts on their phone before the keys are out of the lock.
Clean and photograph
Work through the inclusions checklist. Stamp before/after photos against each item from your phone as you go. The cleaner closing the job sees a single completion checklist — nothing slips.
Invoice on key drop
Send the invoice the moment the keys are returned, with a Pay Now link. Most tenants pay within an hour so the bond release isn't held up at the agent's end.
Defend the bond
If the agent queries an inclusion, reply with the time-stamped photo grid. Most pushback resolves the same day. Track which agents push back so you can price future jobs accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from end-of-lease cleaning operators.
What's an end-of-lease (bond) clean in Australia?
An end-of-lease clean — also called a bond clean, vacate clean, or move-out clean — is the deep clean a tenant pays for at the end of a residential lease so they get their rental bond back. Expectations vary state-by-state under each state's tenancy authority (QLD RTA, NSW Fair Trading, VIC CAV, SA CBS, WA DMIRS, TAS CBOS, ACT ORS, NT CAFL).
How does OneBookPlus prevent bond return disputes?
Every inclusion in the bond clean carries before/after photo coverage. When an agent or landlord queries a specific item, you reply with the time-stamped photo grid for that inclusion. Most disputes resolve within hours instead of dragging through a tenancy tribunal hearing.
Can I track which agents request re-cleans?
Yes. Re-clean requests are tracked per job and aggregated per agency. You can see which agents are reasonable and which routinely push back — useful when you're pricing future jobs from the same agency.
How fast can I invoice a bond clean?
Same day. The moment the keys are returned, send a GST-compliant invoice from your phone with a Pay Now link. Most tenants pay within an hour so the bond release isn't delayed at the agent's end.
Do you handle state-specific bond clean inclusions?
Yes. Start from a state-default inclusions template aligned to each state's tenancy guidance, then tune to the specific property. The accepted quote becomes the source of truth for what was scoped vs what's extra.
