Office Cleaning Cost by Size & Frequency
The table below shows typical price ranges for Melbourne office cleaning based on office size and cleaning frequency. Prices are per clean, all-inclusive. Daily contracts attract the lowest effective per-clean rate due to reduced travel and setup time relative to fortnightly schedules.
Note: these are indicative price ranges based on our standard scope. Your actual quote will depend on your specific floor area, number of bathrooms, kitchen size, floor types, and any specialist requirements.

Office cleaning in Melbourne costs between $35 and $65 per hour. The effective hourly rate depends on frequency — daily contracts attract lower rates than weekly or fortnightly. For reference, a 100sqm office cleaned weekly typically takes 1.5–2 hours and costs $100–$140 per clean. All Golden Star hourly rates are all-inclusive: no additional charges for products, equipment, or travel within the Melbourne metro area.
Office Cleaning Cost Per Hour in Melbourne
Melbourne office cleaning hourly rates range from $35 to $65 per hour depending on frequency and contract type. The hourly rate is a useful comparison tool, but the more meaningful metric for most offices is the per-clean cost — which reflects the total time required for your specific space.
When comparing hourly rates between cleaning companies, verify what is included. Some providers quote a labour-only hourly rate and charge separately for products, equipment, and travel. Golden Star's hourly rate is fully all-inclusive — everything is included in the single quoted figure.
| Contract Type | Effective Hourly Rate |
|---|---|
| Daily (5 days/week) | $35 – $45 / hr |
| 3–4 times per week | $38 – $48 / hr |
| Weekly | $42 – $54 / hr |
| Fortnightly | $48 – $65 / hr |
| One-off / ad hoc | $58 – $75 / hr |
All rates all-inclusive — labour, products, equipment, GST. No hidden extras.
What Affects the Cost of Office Cleaning in Melbourne?
Six key variables determine your Melbourne office cleaning quote. Understanding each factor helps you compare quotes fairly across different providers, ask the right questions, and identify whether a quote is accurate and all-inclusive or missing cost components.
Office Floor Area
Floor area is the primary driver of cleaning cost. Larger offices require more time and more product. Costs scale roughly linearly — a 200sqm office takes approximately twice as long as a 100sqm office with a similar layout.
Cleaning Frequency
Daily contracts are more cost-effective per clean than weekly or fortnightly. More frequent cleaning also means less intensive effort per visit, as the office doesn't accumulate as much between cleans — further reducing time-per-clean.
Number of Bathrooms & Kitchen
Bathrooms and kitchens are the most time-intensive areas to clean properly. Each bathroom typically adds 15–25 minutes to the cleaning time. A larger kitchen or multiple amenity areas will increase the quote accordingly.
Floor Type
Hard floor areas (timber, polished concrete, tiles) take longer to mop and maintain than carpet. Offices with mixed floor types — carpet in open plan, hard floor in reception — require more equipment and time per visit.
After-Hours Requirement
Golden Star does not charge a premium for after-hours cleaning for regular contracts. However, if your office requires cleaning at unsocial hours (before 6am or after midnight), this may affect staffing availability and scheduling cost.
Specialist Requirements
Medical-grade disinfection, carpet steam cleaning, window washing, upholstery cleaning, and post-construction cleaning are all quoted separately. Regulated industries such as healthcare and childcare may require specialist products and protocols that affect pricing.
What's Included in Every Golden Star Quote
Every Golden Star office cleaning quote is fully all-inclusive. There are no add-ons for products, equipment, travel within the Melbourne metro area, or GST. The price you are quoted is the price you pay — nothing more.
This is worth emphasising because many Melbourne cleaning companies quote a labour-only rate and then charge separately for products, equipment hire, and travel. When comparing quotes, always ask for an all-inclusive figure so you are comparing like with like.
Specialist services — carpet steam cleaning, high-level window washing, upholstery cleaning, and post-construction cleaning — are not included in routine cleaning contracts. These are quoted and invoiced separately.
