- Commercial Cleaning Melbourne
ACS Commercial Cleaning provides professionally managed small office cleaning across Melbourne. We work with offices of 2 to 15 staff, including accounting practices, consulting firms, professional suites, small tech companies and owner operated businesses, providing the same dedicated cleaner, written cleaning scope and supervisor quality control that larger offices receive.
Every ACS cleaner is a direct employee, not a subcontractor. Your team becomes familiar with your office layout, alarm codes, waste procedures and cleaning preferences. That consistency is what separates managed cleaning from simply having someone turn up.
We are triple ISO certified (Quality, Environmental, OHS), fully licensed under Victorian Labour Hire regulations (VICLHL06255), and backed by a 30 Day Money Back Guarantee on all new ongoing contracts.
ACS currently provides office cleaning for Green Wave Accounting, Koustas + Co, The Heron Partnership, HTA Advisory, Human Habitats, uFinance, The Vision House and Bing Technologies, alongside larger corporate environments including Cambridge University Press and Assessment, Housing Industry Association and DPM Financial Services. That range across accounting, advisory, technology and financial services demonstrates the depth of our Melbourne office cleaning experience.

Who Is Small Office Cleaning For?
This service is designed for Melbourne businesses with compact office spaces, typically under 150 square metres with 2 to 15 staff.
The types of small offices we clean include accounting and bookkeeping practices, legal offices and consulting firms, financial advisory and planning offices, architecture and design studios, technology companies and startups, marketing agencies and creative studios, professional suites within shared or managed buildings, and owner operated businesses with a small team.
Most of our small office clients share one thing: they do not have a dedicated facilities manager. The person organising the cleaning is also running the business. That is exactly why ACS manages the cleaning relationship end to end, so you do not have to chase your cleaner, report missed areas or wonder whether the office was actually cleaned last night.
What Small Office Cleaning Includes
Every ACS small office cleaning contract starts with a written Scope of Works that documents exactly what gets cleaned, how often and to what standard. Nothing is left to guesswork.
Workstations and desks. Dusting, wiping and sanitising desks, monitors, keyboards, mice and phones. For hot desking or shared desk setups, high touch surfaces are sanitised at every visit.
Kitchen and breakroom. Benchtops, sink, splashback, appliances (microwave, fridge exterior, coffee machine), table and chairs wiped and sanitised. Bins emptied and liners replaced. For offices with small kitchenettes, this is often the area that generates the most complaints when cleaning is inconsistent.
Bathroom and toilet. Toilet, basin, mirror, floor and fittings cleaned and disinfected. Consumables (soap, hand towels, toilet paper) checked and restocked where supply is included in the contract.
Floors. Vacuuming of carpeted areas using HEPA filtered equipment, mopping of hard floors, spot cleaning of marks and spills.
Reception and entry. Front desk, waiting area, entry glass and door handles cleaned to presentation standard. For client facing businesses, this is the first impression visitors see.
High touch surfaces. Door handles, light switches, shared equipment, cupboard handles and handrails sanitised at every visit.
Bins and waste. All general waste and recycling emptied, liners replaced, bins wiped clean.
All cleaning uses eco friendly, low VOC products and a colour coded hygiene system that prevents cross contamination between bathrooms, kitchens and workstation areas.
How Often Should a Small Office Be Cleaned?
Cleaning frequency depends on how many people use the office each day, how the kitchen and bathroom are used and whether the office is client facing.
| Office Size and Usage | Recommended Frequency |
|---|---|
| 2 to 5 staff, low foot traffic | Once per week |
| 5 to 10 staff, moderate use | Twice per week |
| 10 to 15 staff or client facing | Three times per week |
| Hybrid office (in office 3 days) | Aligned to in office days |
Hybrid and part time offices. Many Melbourne businesses now operate on a three day or four day in office model. Cleaning every weeknight no longer makes sense when the office is empty two days a week. ACS schedules cleaning around the days your team is actually present, not a fixed five day roster that wastes money on empty offices.
For most small offices in Melbourne, once or twice a week is sufficient. ACS assesses your specific situation during a free onsite inspection and recommends the frequency that matches your actual usage.
After Hours Cleaning, Keys and Security
Most ACS small office cleaning in Melbourne is performed after business hours, typically between 5:30 PM and 9:00 PM on weekdays. Early morning cleaning before 7:00 AM is also available. No after hours surcharge is applied to ongoing contracts.
Your cleaner will hold a key, fob or access card under ACS’s documented security protocols. In shared or managed buildings where after hours access requires sign in, lift access cards or coordination with building management, ACS handles this as standard.
Every ACS cleaner assigned to your office is trained in your specific lock up procedure, including setting alarms, locking deadbolts, securing windows and switching off lights. These procedures are documented during the site induction and confirmed before the first clean.
All ACS cleaners are police checked, directly employed and fully insured under WorkCover. You will know who is entering your office after hours. For small offices without CCTV or reception staff, this is not a generic checkbox. It is the reason we employ directly and do not rotate subcontractors through your site.
How ACS Manages Your Small Office Cleaning
ACS does not simply send a cleaner and hope for the best. Every small office contract is managed through a structured system designed to prevent the quality drop off that most businesses have experienced with previous cleaners.
Dedicated cleaner. Your office is assigned a core cleaner who attends every scheduled visit. They learn your layout, your preferences and your standards. Many ACS office cleaners have remained at the same client sites for five to six years.
Written Scope of Works. Before the first clean, ACS documents every task, every room, every frequency and every standard in a written scope. This is not a vague list of general cleaning duties. It is the reference point your cleaner works from and the document your supervisor inspects against.
Supervisor quality control. An ACS area supervisor inspects your office on a regular cycle, measuring results against the Scope of Works and addressing any issues before you need to raise them.
Accountability when things go wrong. If a cleaning issue arises, ACS investigates the cause, determines whether the existing process needs to change, organises additional support where required and follows the problem through to resolution. This is the core ACS commitment: ownership from issue to outcome.
What Makes ACS Different
1
ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental) and ISO 45001 (OHS). Independently audited management systems behind every cleaning contract.
2
Every ACS cleaner is directly employed, police checked and paid above award rates. No subcontracting, no labour hire chains, no rotating strangers through your office.
3
Your dedicated cleaner knows your site, your preferences and your security procedures. Consistency eliminates the new cleaner problems that plague businesses using providers with high turnover.
4
New ongoing contracts are backed by a money back guarantee. If the agreed cleaning standard is not met during the first 30 days, ACS investigates, corrects the issue or you do not pay.
5
ACS was founded in 2016 by Hannah Kasay and remains owner led. When an issue requires a decision, you have direct access to someone who can resolve it.
6
Every task, room, frequency and cleaning standard is documented before the first clean. Your cleaner works from this scope and supervisors inspect against it.
