Office Cleaning Melbourne
After-hours office cleaning that never interrupts your day — desks, kitchens, and washrooms reset before the first meeting.
After-hours office cleaning with zero disruption
Daytime cleaners interrupt calls, meetings, and focus. AfterFive runs scheduled office cleans in the evening, overnight, or early morning across Melbourne metro — so your team walks into a reset workplace every morning.
Most Melbourne offices with 10–30 staff clean two or three times per week. High-traffic corporate floors and coworking spaces often need daily service. We advise the right frequency at your walkthrough — we will not upsell a daily schedule if twice-weekly meets the standard.

Why Melbourne offices choose AfterFive
Night-shift is the product
We specialise in after-hours office cleaning — not daytime domestic crews squeezed into commercial hours.
Written scopes, not guesswork
Kitchens, washrooms, floors, and meeting rooms are defined before the first clean so standards do not drift.
Crew continuity
Where possible the same trained team learns your site, priorities, and problem areas — not a revolving roster.
Clear escalation
Documented checks and a named path when something is missed. Facility managers get accountability, not excuses.

What affects office cleaning cost in Melbourne
We quote a written scope after a walkthrough — not a generic hourly rate. Cost is driven by:
- Floor area (m²) and number of levels
- Cleaning frequency (2×, 3×, or daily)
- Amenity load — kitchens, washrooms, meeting rooms
- Foot traffic and staff count
- Access complexity — lifts, security, after-hours windows
- Add-ons — carpet extraction, hard-floor care, periodic deep cleans
Office Cleaning Melbourne FAQs
What times do you clean offices?
Most office contracts run after close — typically from 6pm — or early morning before staff arrive. We schedule around your building access, lift bookings, and alarm procedures.
Do you hold keys and manage alarms?
Yes. Regular contract clients can include key-holding and alarm arming/disarming in the scope.
Will it be the same crew each time?
Where possible, yes. Crew continuity means the team learns your site — not a revolving roster of strangers.
How much does office cleaning cost in Melbourne?
It depends on floor area, frequency, and amenity load. We quote a written scope after a site walkthrough rather than a generic hourly figure.
Can you scale as we grow or add sites?
Yes. Scopes and frequencies flex with headcount, and multi-site offices can run under one account.
Are your cleaners insured and screened?
Insurance and police-check details are confirmed per contract. We do not make clinical sterilisation claims — office cleaning is professional facility care.
