How to Prepare for Move-In Move-Out Cleaning #
Getting ready to move? Need a spotless space before handing over the keys? Move-in and move-out cleaning is essential for ensuring your new home is fresh and ready or that you leave your old place in perfect condition. Whether you’re a renter aiming to get your security deposit back or a homeowner prepping for sale, here’s everything you need to do before our team arrives.
Clear Out All Personal Belongings #
For the most effective cleaning, ensure all furniture, boxes, and personal items are removed from the space before we arrive. This allows us to clean every corner thoroughly without obstacles.
Ensure Utilities Are On #
Our cleaners need access to electricity and running water to perform deep cleaning tasks. If your utilities are scheduled for disconnection, try to keep them active until the cleaning is complete.
Address Any Repairs or Damage #
If there are holes in the walls, broken fixtures, or other damages, taking care of them before cleaning ensures a smoother transition, especially for rental inspections or property sales.
Empty the Refrigerator and Freezer #
If the cleaning includes appliance cleaning, ensure your fridge and freezer are emptied and defrosted in advance. This allows us to clean them properly without risk of leaks or food waste.
Make Special Requests in Advance #
If you need extra attention on certain areas—such as inside cabinets, baseboards, or carpets—let us know ahead of time so we can customize your cleaning service to your needs.
