Move-in / move-out cleaning
Move-out cleaning is for the apartment you are handing back. The goal is a documented clean of the empty or nearly empty home before the inspection.
Tenants who want the unit ready for a landlord walkthrough, and landlords taking a unit back.
Book after the furniture is out when you can. The published guide for 1,000–1,500 sq ft move-in/out work is 2 cleaners and about 5 hours.
Square footage, condition, and whether appliances are emptied. A security deposit decision belongs to the landlord; the clean is the scope on the quote.
TheCleanHandy does not publish a dollar price for move-out cleaning. The published time guide for a 1,000–1,500 sq ft move-in/out is 2 cleaners for about 5 hours. The written quote uses your size, condition, and access.
Kitchens, bathrooms, floors, interior cabinets, appliance exteriors, interior windows, and dust on baseboards and doors. Interiors of the fridge and oven are included when they are empty and listed on the quote.
If the lease or the landlord expects a clean handoff, a move-out clean is the visit for that. Furniture should be out first when you can arrange it.
For 1,000–1,500 sq ft, the published guide is about 5 hours with 2 cleaners. Larger bands on the pricing page use more cleaners or more hours. Condition can change the quote.
Kitchen, bathrooms, floors, cabinets, and interior glass are the usual inspection items. The move-out checklist on this site is the practical list. The deposit decision stays with the landlord.
