Move-Out Residential Cleaning Services

What Is Residential Move Out Cleaning?

The last step before moving out of your old home is cleaning it…and it can be a huge task! If you are renting, you will want to check your contract to see what the fine print says about requiring a move out cleaning. Many rental companies and apartments require that a unit is deep cleaned prior to move out or they will charge a cleaning service fee. Doing this yourself can save you quite a bit of money.

Beyond just meeting the needs of your contract, a deep clean can prevent the landlord from charging additional fees. Our trained professionals can spot maintenance issues that you can get resolved prior to moving out that will save you money. 

If you have just sold your home, many resell contracts also have a cleaning stipulation and it also sets a good tone to ensure the home is warm and welcoming to the new owners. 

What Is Typically Included In A Move-Out Cleaning?

Of course we can tailor each clean to your unique needs and schedule, however, there are some standard things we typically do. We usually expect that the home has been wholly cleaned out prior to doing a Move-Out Clean otherwise the process of moving might re-soil the home. The Move-Out clean should be the last item you do.

• All rooms cleaned top to bottom: dusting, vacuuming, and mopping

• Deep and Detailed Cleaning of bathrooms and kitchen 

• Special Attention to appliances, sinks, countertops and showers/bathtubs

• Wipe down of all cabinets

• Baseboard cleaning

Think of a Move-Out Clean as restoring the home to a like-new condition. When someone comes into the home it should feel as close to new as possible.

That New Home Smell

We cannot stress enough how important it is to make sure your home smells good. Having a clean home that smells good is important whether it is from a routine cleaning, a deep cleaning, a move-in cleaning or a move-out cleaning.
