Cleaners across New Zealand

From Northland to Southland, by region and city.

Pick your region to see the cities and towns with a page of their own, or send the clean from any postcode in the country.

What kind of clean do you need?

What kind of clean?

We find the cleaner. The cleaning business quotes, cleans and invoices you directly.

What a region or city cleaning page adds

Region and city pages cover what's different there: how damp the homes run, how many households own their home, and the kind of housing a cleaner walks into. The census figures are for the whole region, and each page says so.

Suburb pages go a step further, with the council or local board, the mix of houses and flats, and what's worth knowing about access.

No cleaning page for your town yet?

Send the clean anyway. All six cleans are offered in every region, and the form works from any postcode, including the places without a page so far, such as Gisborne, Marlborough and the West Coast.

Nearby cleaning businesses see the job, and the first one to take it gets your details. Should no nearby business pick it up, the job goes out to a wider area after 48 hours.

Cleaning rules that don't change by region

Tenancy law is national. Wherever you rent, Tenancy Services asks for the place to be reasonably clean and tidy when you leave, with your things and rubbish gone; bond and tenancy rules has the detail.

The words change a little. A holiday home is a bach in most of the country and a crib in the southern half of the South Island, and the holiday home clean covers both.

Questions

Questions about cleaners across New Zealand

My town isn't listed. Can I still find a cleaner?

Yes. The form takes any New Zealand postcode, and every clean is open in every region.

Why are the figures for the region, not my city?

Stats NZ's 2023 Census regional summaries are the official figures we could read for damp, mould and home ownership, so we quote them for the region and say so.

When the cleaning business rings

  • Know how many bedrooms and bathrooms there are, and any extras you want done.
  • Moving out? Have your property inspection report and the day the keys go back.
  • Think about getting in: keys, parking, stairs, and any pets home on the day.

Cleaner Scout passes your clean to a local cleaning business. They quote, clean and invoice you themselves. We don't clean, and we don't employ cleaners.
