End of Lease Rubbish RemovalHow to Get Your Full Bond Back: End of Lease Rubbish Removal Checklist
Getting your full bond back in Melbourne requires more than just cleaning. Leftover rubbish, furniture, and clutter can result in deductions during your final inspection. Use this end of lease rubbish removal checklist to ensure your property is completely cleared and ready for inspection.
Step 1: Remove All Furniture and Bulky Items
Couches, beds, tables, wardrobes, and other bulky items must be removed. Our same day end of lease rubbish removal service can handle all heavy lifting so you don’t risk injury or missing your inspection deadline.
Step 2: Clear General Rubbish
Bags of rubbish, boxes, and miscellaneous items often accumulate in kitchens, bedrooms, and living areas. Ensure everything is removed and properly disposed of.

Step 3: Clean Garage, Storage, and Outdoor Areas
Don’t forget garages, sheds, balconies, and backyards. Leftover garden waste, broken furniture, or storage clutter can cost you part of your bond.
Step 4: Remove Appliances and Whitegoods
Fridges, washing machines, microwaves, and electronics should either be removed or cleaned and left in good condition. If you don’t have the means, professional end-of-lease rubbish removal ensures safe and quick disposal.
Step 5: Check for Last-Minute Items
Walk through every room and outdoor space to find leftover junk, boxes, or items behind furniture. These are the items most often missed and can result in bond deductions.
Step 6: Perform a Basic Clean-Up
After rubbish removal, a quick vacuum, sweep, or mop ensures the property looks tidy. While we focus on rubbish removal, combining our service with cleaning maximizes your chances of a full bond return.
