Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning Checklist

Our most thorough service — a complete top-to-bottom reset that restores an empty home to like-new condition. Because every surface is fully accessible, it goes deeper than a standard deep clean: protecting a security deposit, prepping a property for sale, or giving new owners a fresh start.

  • Insured & bonded
  • Background-checked team
  • Satisfaction guarantee
The home must be empty on arrival. This service is for vacant properties only. If belongings, furniture, or debris remain, we can’t complete the service as quoted.

Home must be empty

Performed on vacant properties only — no belongings, furniture, or debris.

Working utilities

Water, electricity, and HVAC must be fully operational at the time of service. Properties without functioning utilities can’t be serviced.

Climbing height

For safety, team members won’t climb higher than a 2-step ladder.

Protecting your security deposit? Most leases require a thorough professional clean before move-out to qualify for a full deposit return. Our insured team documents the clean and follows a comprehensive checklist — giving you the paper trail and peace of mind before you hand over the keys.
