What Affects the Price?
The total monthly commercial kitchen cleaning cost in Melbourne varies widely: a simple cafe kitchen running nightly close clean only might cost $2,500–$3,500/month, while a full restaurant kitchen with nightly close clean, weekly professional deep clean, rangehood filter service, and quarterly AS 1851 exhaust program can reach $7,000–$10,000/month. Understanding the breakdown helps you assess whether a quote covers what your kitchen actually needs or whether a low headline price excludes the AS 1851 and grease trap programs that are legally required.
How to Get an Accurate Quote
Commercial kitchen cleaning cost in Melbourne is driven more by what's in the kitchen than by how big it is. A 30m² kitchen with a charcoal oven, deep fryer, wok burners, and a full rangehood system costs more to clean than a 60m² kitchen running two ovens and a flat-top grill — the grease load, not the floor area, determines the cleaning time and chemistry required. Golden Star inspects your kitchen within 24 hours, identifies every piece of equipment, the cooking type, and your operating schedule, then provides a written fixed-price program quote covering nightly, weekly, and periodic deep clean requirements.

Commercial Kitchen Deep Cleaning Cost Melbourne — FAQ
AS 1851 quarterly exhaust duct cleaning for a standard Melbourne restaurant kitchen costs $400–$900 per service, depending on duct length, number of kitchen lines, and accessibility. A simple single-flue system with accessible duct sections costs around $400–$550. A complex system with multiple kitchen lines, extended duct runs, or difficult access costs $650–$900+. The certificate issued after each service is required for fire insurance compliance and should be kept with your building maintenance records.
No — they are different programs. The nightly close clean (performed by your kitchen staff or a cleaner after every service) covers the surfaces and floors to prevent overnight bacterial growth. The weekly professional deep clean goes further — it disassembles equipment, uses high-concentration degreasers that are not appropriate for daily use, scrubs splashbacks and wall tiles, and deep cleans the floor with commercial machinery. Both are required as part of a complete kitchen hygiene program.
Yes. Golden Star provides signed, dated HACCP-compliant zone-by-zone kitchen cleaning completion records after every professional deep clean session. These records are included in the standard program cost — there is no additional charge for documentation. The records are formatted for Melbourne council Environmental Health inspection acceptance.
A typical full restaurant kitchen cleaning program in Melbourne — nightly close clean 5 nights per week, weekly deep clean, monthly rangehood filter service — costs approximately $4,500–$8,500 per month depending on kitchen size. This includes all labour, products, equipment, and HACCP documentation. Quarterly exhaust duct (AS 1851) and periodic grease trap pump-out are additional costs billed separately when the service is performed.
