ServicesMove-Out Cleaning
Move-Out Cleaning in Cudahy
Packing is enough work. We clean the place once the boxes are gone, inside cabinets, appliances, closets and floors, so the next walkthrough goes smoothly. Before we start, you get the full scope and the things that set the price in writing.
Cleaning the Home You Are Leaving
Move-out cleaning is a full clean of an empty or nearly empty home. With the furniture gone, every mark shows. Dust lines where a dresser stood. Grease on the wall behind the stove. Soap film in the tub that daily wiping never touched. We go after all of it.
It is the right call when you are a renter heading into a final inspection, or a homeowner getting ready to sell or hand over to new owners. It also fits when you just want to leave the place the way you would want to find it. If you are on the other side of the move, our move-in cleaning covers the home you are moving into.
Before we book, we talk through the home by phone and write down what is included. If something is not on the list, we do not add it on the day and send you a bigger bill.
What We Clean on a Move-Out
- 01
Inside every cabinet and drawer
We empty out crumbs, wipe the shelves and clean the doors and pulls. Kitchen and bathroom cabinets get the same care.
- 02
Oven, stovetop and range hood
We degrease the stovetop, clean the oven interior and racks, and wipe the hood and filter area. Baked-on spills take the longest, so we note heavy buildup when we price the job.
- 03
Refrigerator inside and out
Shelves and drawers come out and get washed. We wipe the gaskets and the outside, and clean the floor where the fridge can be pulled out safely.
- 04
Bathrooms down to the grout
Tub, shower, toilet, sink, mirror and fixtures. We work on soap scum, hard water spots and the base of the toilet where grime collects.
- 05
Walls, trim and baseboards
We spot-clean scuffs and fingerprints, wipe light switches and outlet covers, and hand-wipe baseboards and door frames.
- 06
Floors and closets
Closet shelves and floors get wiped, then we vacuum and mop every room on the way out the door.
Questions about Move-Out Cleaning?
Call(323) 613-3412Signs You Should Book a Move-Out Clean
Your lease mentions cleaning
Many leases say the unit must be returned clean. A landlord's idea of clean usually means inside the oven and fridge, not just swept floors.
You are out of time
The truck is booked and you are still packing. Leaving the cleaning to us lets you focus on the move itself.
The empty rooms look worse
Once furniture moves, you see dust outlines, carpet dents and marks on the walls you never noticed. That is normal, and it is what this clean is for.
You are selling or handing over
Buyers and new owners notice a grimy oven or a stained tub on the final walkthrough. A clean home makes the handover simple.
The kitchen has years of buildup
Grease on cabinet tops and inside the hood builds slowly. If it has been a while, it needs more than a quick wipe.
How a Move-Out Clean Goes
- 1
Call for your free quote
Tell us the size of the home, the number of bathrooms, your move-out date and the condition of the oven and fridge. We ask a few questions so the price matches the job.

Get the scope in writing
We write down what we will clean and what affects the price. You see it before anything is booked, so there are no add-ons later.

We clean the empty home
Best timing is after the last box is out. We work top to bottom, high surfaces first, floors last, so dust does not land on clean areas.

Walk through before we leave
If you are there, we go room by room together and take care of anything you point out before we pack up. If you are not, tell us how you want to hear back. If something looks missed after we leave, call us and we will review it with you.
What Sets the Price of a Move-Out Clean
Every move-out is a little different, so we price each one on its own. We go over these factors by phone and put them in writing for you. The number you agree to is the number you pay for that scope.
- Size and layout
- Square footage, bedrooms and especially bathrooms make the biggest difference. A two-story house takes longer than a one-level apartment of the same size.
- Condition of the kitchen
- A lightly used oven is quick. Heavy grease on the stove, hood and cabinet tops takes real time, and we say so up front.
- Whether the home is empty
- Cleaning around boxes and furniture is slower and leaves spots we cannot reach. An empty home cleans faster and better.
- Extras you choose
- Inside windows, wall washing beyond spot cleaning, or a garage sweep can be added. They go on the written scope only if you ask for them.
Move-Out Cleaning Questions
Will this get my security deposit back?
We cannot speak for your landlord, and deposit decisions are theirs. What we can do is clean the areas landlords usually check, like the oven, fridge, bathrooms and baseboards. If your lease has a cleaning checklist, read it to us when you call and we will build the quote around it.
Should the home be empty when you come?
Yes, if you can manage it. We clean best with furniture and boxes gone so we can reach floors, closets and baseboards. If a few items have to stay, tell us when you call so we plan around them.
Do I need to be home during the clean?
No. Many people are busy with the move or already in the new place. We just need a way in and a clear plan for returning keys or locking up.
Do you bring your own supplies?
Yes. We bring our cleaners, cloths, mops and vacuum. You do not need to keep anything behind after you pack.
Can you clean the new place too?
Yes. Our move-in cleaning handles the home you are moving into, and we can price both on the same call. Ask us about timing so the two do not overlap.
Do you work outside Cudahy?
We also clean homes in nearby areas such as South Gate, Bell Gardens and Lynwood. Tell us the address when you call and we will let you know.
Leave the Old Place Clean
