Every job through Nest and Nurture Society runs on the same fair-pay model in Port Melbourne as everywhere else. The customer pays a minimum of $70/hr, the business keeps a flat $20/hr, never a percentage, and the cleaner takes home the rest, a minimum of $50/hr. On Airbnb and short-stay work in Port Melbourne, the customer pays a minimum of $80/hr and the cleaner takes home a minimum of $60/hr.
Port Melbourne pay minimums
The business keeps a flat $20/hr, never a percentage. The cleaner is paid the job rate minus that flat fee.
These are minimums, not standard rates. Premium and same-day Port Melbourne jobs charge out higher, and the full upside goes to the cleaner.
The work in Port Melbourne
Port Melbourne mixes recurring cleans for young families in the townhouse developments with apartment work in the converted warehouses closer to the water, plus a smaller stream of short-stay cleans near the beach in warmer months. It is a steadier, less turnover-heavy suburb than Docklands next door.
Getting around Port Melbourne
Tram 109 runs the length of Port Melbourne from the beach through to the city and out to Box Hill, and light rail along Bay Street is the main spine for reaching jobs without a car. The Westgate Freeway and Lorimer Street give quick car access into the CBD.
