Simple Checkout

Clear checkout instructions

Now you can add checkout instructions directly on Airbnb, similar to the way you enter standard house rules.

Quickly create a checkout list by selecting from these common tasks:

• Gather used towels

• Throw rubbish away

• Turn things off

• Lock up

• Return keys

You can add details for each task. For example, you might specify that guests put rubbish in one bin and recycling in another. You can also write requests that are specific to your home, such as covering the grill after use.

Automatic checkout reminders

We’ll send guests an automatic reminder with your checkout time and instructions. This is sent as a push notification to your guest’s mobile device the day before checkout at 5.00pm in the time zone where they’re staying.

Guests need to have the Rental app downloaded and push notifications enabled to receive this reminder. Once they check out, guests can let you know they’ve left with a single tap or click.
