Nelson Tasman: two councils, one bay
Nelson City Council and Tasman District Council are separate unitary authorities, though the two are treated as one region in some contexts. Tasman's council sits at Richmond, and its towns of more than 1,000 people are Richmond, Motueka, Wakefield, Brightwater, Māpua and Tākaka.
Every clean works on both sides of the boundary, including a holiday home clean for a bach you let over summer.
Nelson and Tasman homes: two sets of figures
The 2023 Census counts Nelson and Tasman separately. For the Nelson region it has 28.8% of households not owning their home (nor holding it in a family trust), 14.0% of homes damp at least sometimes and 9.6% with mould over A4 size sometimes or always. For Tasman, across 25,755 private dwellings, those three figures are 22.6%, 11.1% and 7.7%.
Nelson gets over 2400 hours of sunshine a year but still averages about 75 ground frost days (NIWA, 1991 to 2020). Cold, clear mornings mean condensation on the glass, so sills and frames belong on a winter list.
No change at the boundary: tenancy cleaning in Nelson Tasman
The rule doesn't change at the council boundary: leave the place reasonably clean and tidy, emptied of your things and rubbish. Tenancy Services says a condition requiring a cleaning company could breach the law. See the bond and tenancy rules for the bond and the Tenancy Tribunal.
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.
