- Event Cleaning Services
ACS Commercial Cleaning provides professionally managed event cleaning services across Melbourne for corporate functions, commercial venues, community events, exhibitions and private functions where the cleaning needs to work around the event schedule, not the other way around.
Events create cleaning challenges that are different from routine commercial cleaning. Attendance numbers change, spills happen during service, bathrooms need continuous attention, waste volumes spike in short windows and the venue often needs to be returned to its original condition within hours of the event ending. ACS can arrange pre-event preparation, during-event cleaning and post-event cleanup based on the agreed work, event schedule and cleaning team availability.
We currently provide commercial cleaning for venues and organisations across Melbourne including Collins Street Baptist Church, Koonung Heights Uniting Church, Presbytery of Yarra Yarra and Salvation Army Box Hill, alongside corporate offices and commercial facilities that host regular functions and events. That experience managing cleaning in public facing, high traffic environments is what we bring to every event engagement.
ACS cleaners are police checked, and our company holds Victorian Labour Hire Licence VICLHL06255. Founder Hannah Kasay remains personally involved in the day-to-day running of the business, so clients can contact her directly when they need support or have a cleaning concern.

Planning an event in Melbourne and need reliable cleaning support?
Talk to ACS about a tailored event cleaning plan covering pre-event preparation, during-event cleaning and post-event venue reset, based on your venue, attendance, schedule and turnaround requirements.
What Event Cleaning Covers
ACS event cleaning is structured around three stages, each with a defined scope agreed with the venue manager or event organiser before the event takes place.
Pre Event Cleaning
Before guests arrive, the venue needs to be presentation ready. ACS pre event cleaning covers floor sweeping, vacuuming and mopping across all event areas, surface wiping and sanitising of tables, chairs, counters, stages and display areas, bathroom deep cleaning and restocking of consumables, entrance and foyer cleaning including glass doors and high visibility surfaces, kitchen and catering area preparation where food service is involved, and bin placement and waste station setup throughout the venue.
ACS schedules pre event cleaning around your bump in timeline and confirms the cleaning arrangements with you in advance so the work can fit around event setup.
During Event Cleaning
High foot traffic, food and beverage service and large numbers of guests create ongoing cleaning demands throughout an event. ACS provides during event cleaning teams who work discreetly to maintain presentation standards while the event is running.
During event cleaning includes bathroom monitoring and regular cleaning to keep facilities presentable and stocked, spot cleaning of spills, marks and messes in high traffic areas, ongoing bin emptying and waste removal to prevent overflow, dining and catering area maintenance including table wiping and surface cleaning, and lobby, hallway and common area upkeep throughout the event duration.
ACS during event cleaners are briefed on the event schedule and work around presentations, meal services, entertainment and guest movement. The goal is to keep the venue clean without being noticed.
Post Event Cleaning and Venue Reset
Once the event ends, the venue needs to be returned to its pre event condition, often within a tight window. ACS post event cleaning covers full floor cleaning including sweeping, mopping, vacuuming and spot treatment, removal of agreed general and recyclable waste, bathroom deep cleaning and sanitisation, surface cleaning of all furniture, fixtures and equipment, kitchen and catering area cleaning where applicable, and removal of event specific waste including signage, decorations and packaging.
For venues hosting events on consecutive days or reopening the following morning, ACS discusses the required turnaround, assesses the work involved and confirms a suitable cleaning schedule based on available staff and the condition of the venue.

Event Types We Clean
ACS provides event cleaning across a range of Melbourne event formats including corporate conferences and seminars, product launches and retail activations, gala dinners and awards nights, community events and fundraisers, church and religious functions, exhibitions and trade shows, private functions and celebrations, and venue hire events in commercial function spaces.
Each event type has different cleaning demands. A corporate conference with 200 attendees generates different waste patterns, bathroom usage and floor traffic than a community fundraiser with catering and children’s activities. ACS assesses the event format, expected attendance, venue layout and schedule before proposing a cleaning plan.
Venue Cleaning
Many Melbourne venues require regular cleaning between events rather than a one off service. ACS provides venue cleaning for function centres, community halls, church halls, conference rooms and commercial event spaces on an ongoing or event by event basis.
For venues that host multiple events per week, ACS can provide a structured venue cleaning schedule that covers regular maintenance cleaning between bookings and dedicated pre and post event cleaning aligned to the event calendar.
ACS currently provides ongoing cleaning for Collins Street Baptist Church, Koonung Heights Uniting Church and other Melbourne community venues that host regular functions, meetings and events. Cleaning requirements for these venues are discussed individually, taking into account regular bookings, services, community gatherings and the areas that need attention.
For venue managers looking for a single cleaning provider that handles both regular maintenance and event turnarounds, ACS offers a combined service that simplifies coordination and keeps the venue at a consistent standard regardless of whether an event is scheduled.
How ACS Manages Event Cleaning
Event cleaning is unpredictable. Attendance can change, weather affects outdoor setups, catering creates unexpected mess and timelines shift. That’s why it helps to agree on cleaning tasks, staffing requirements and event timings before the day, rather than leaving the organiser to work everything out during the event.
ACS discusses the venue, event format, expected attendance and cleaning requirements before preparing a quotation. We agree on the work involved and how the cleaning will be arranged. If something changes on the day, the organiser can contact ACS to discuss what is needed, and we’ll work towards a practical solution based on available cleaners and the agreed arrangements.
We believe event organisers should be able to contact their cleaning company without being passed from person to person. If a cleaning concern arises, ACS responds quickly, investigates the issue and works with the organiser to put it right. Founder Hannah Kasay remains involved in the business and is accessible to clients who need support.
For commercial clients that host regular events, ACS can establish a standing event cleaning arrangement where the coordination process becomes familiar, the team knows the venue and each event requires less briefing because the operational relationship is already established. This is particularly valuable for conference venues, function centres and community organisations that run events on a weekly or monthly cycle.
Event Cleaning Pricing in Melbourne
Event cleaning pricing depends on the specific requirements of each event. The main factors that affect cost include venue size and layout, event duration (single day or multi day), number of attendees, cleaning stages required (pre event only, during event, post event or all three), number of bathrooms and catering areas, waste volume and disposal requirements, time of cleaning (daytime, evening, overnight, weekend) and turnaround deadline for venue reset.
ACS provides a written quote after discussing the event details with the organiser or venue manager. For recurring events or ongoing venue cleaning contracts, ACS can provide structured monthly pricing.
