Move-out cleaning is a detailed clean of an empty home after your belongings are gone.

Who it's for
Move-out cleaning serves renters leaving apartments near Clackamas Town Center, homeowners selling in Happy Valley or Oregon City, and property managers turning over units.
Before your visit
Schedule the clean after the movers are done and utilities are still on. Let us know if your lease has a specific move-out checklist so we can review it with you.
How move-out cleaning differs from our other services
Move-out cleaning is for the home you are handing back. The focus is on what a landlord, property manager or buyer will inspect: inside empty cabinets and drawers, inside the oven and fridge, the stovetop and range hood, scuffs on baseboards, closet shelves and the corners furniture used to hide. The goal is a walk-through with fewer surprises. Move-in cleaning, by contrast, prepares a home for you before your boxes arrive.

What a move-out cleaning visit looks like
We begin with a quick check of anything you flagged when you booked. For this service, that usually means starting with inside and outside of kitchen cabinets and drawers and inside oven, refrigerator and microwave, then countertops, backsplash and sink. Floors come last so nothing is tracked across clean surfaces. Before leaving, your cleaner walks the home once more against the checklist.
Good to know
Empty homes clean faster and better. Book your move-out clean after the movers leave and before your final walkthrough, and let us know if the landlord gave you a checklist so we can follow it.
