Extra items and charges

This space has extra items and charges that can be added to your booking. Some may be required depending on your booking time and type, which will be shown at the checkout.

Progress Castlecliff Membership 2024/25
Cleaning
$110.00 per booking (2 available)
The Duncan Pavilion has a monthly professional full clean. Between bookings we rely on hirers to clean with inspections and extra clean if really necessary from our volunteers every few days. If you want to come into a freshly cleaned building (eg yoga classes needing spotless floors) and/or have someone else sweep and mop a before clean where you still sweep and mop after OR an after clean (especially good for evening bookings - no late night after party mopping). Tell us if you want the clean before or after in a message.If you want the cleaner before and after your event choose 2 in quantity. Note if the cleaner has to deal with rubbish, taking down decorations etc they will charge extra and we'll pass those charges on vis spaceprotect). Cleaning is subject to availability of both the cleaner and the pavilion (if your booking is immediately before or after another booking it won't be possible)
Extras - projection screens, TV's, tablecloths, glassware, tablesettings & JBL boombox stereo & mics
$1.00 per booking (999 available)
We can usually provide these for bookings at equivalent rates to external hire (but provide them to the pavilion saving you effort picking them up and returning them). Ask and we'll call you back and discuss your needs.
