Move-in and move-out

Move-out cleaning in Columbus, Ohio

An empty-property clean down to the inside of every cabinet and drawer, timed to your final walkthrough — not loosely scheduled around it.

An empty house is a different job

A move-out clean is not a house clean done to an empty room. When the furniture is gone, everything that was behind it is now in scope, and everything that was inside it is open to inspection. That changes the order of the work and how long it takes.

Every cabinet gets opened and wiped inside. Every closet shelf gets dusted. Drawers come out where they can. The floors get done last, walking backwards out the door, so nothing is walked over after it's finished.

The five places a landlord always checks

Walkthroughs are more predictable than most tenants expect. The same short list accounts for most deposit deductions, and missing one of them usually costs more than the clean would have.

  • The oven — inside, racks, and the door glass
  • The fridge — inside, shelves, and the seals
  • Bathroom grout and the shower door
  • Window sills and tracks
  • The inside of every kitchen drawer and cabinet

Booked against your handover date

We schedule move-out cleans against your walkthrough date rather than dropping them into the first free slot. Tell us the day you hand over keys when you send the request, and the visit gets placed so the property sits clean — not lived-in — when it's inspected.

The same applies in reverse for a move-in. If you'd rather take possession of a property that's already been cleaned end to end before your furniture arrives, that's the same job run in the opposite direction.

What every visit includes

These aren't add-ons and they don't change the quote. They're in every job we do, residential or commercial.

  • All cleaning supplies brought by us — nothing to leave out or restock
  • The same checklist, every visit

  • Checked against the list before we leave

How it works

Four steps, no call center.

  1. 01

    Send the request

    Tell us the address, the property type, and anything that needs particular attention. Two minutes.

  2. 02

    The owner reads it

    Not a queue and not a call center. She reviews every request that comes through this site personally.

  3. 03

    The owner schedules a consultation

    A call or a visit to walk the space with you, then a straight quote priced to what your home actually needs — never a menu rate.

  4. 04

    We clean to the checklist

    Every visit works through the same list in the same order, so the standard does not change with the schedule.

Before you ask

Straight answers.

The questions people actually ask about move-out cleaning in Columbus.

As soon as you know your handover date. We schedule move-out cleans against the walkthrough rather than loosely, so the earlier we have the date, the easier it is to place the visit where it actually helps you. Send the date through the request form and the owner will confirm a time directly.

Yes. On an empty property both are in scope — inside the oven, the racks and the door glass, and inside the fridge including the shelves and seals. Those are two of the five places a landlord checks first, which is exactly why they're part of the job rather than an extra.

It should be as empty as you can get it. We can work around a few remaining boxes, but anything still in a cabinet is something we can't clean inside, and the inside of the cabinets is what gets inspected. Tell us what's likely to still be there when you send the request and we'll scope it honestly.

We don't publish prices, because a four-bedroom house after a renovation and a two-bedroom condo on a monthly rotation are not the same job. Every clean is quoted to the actual space. Tell us about the property and you'll get a straight number — no menu pricing, no surprise charges on the day.

Deep cleaning

Baseboards, vents, window tracks, grout lines and the top of the fridge — the build-up a standard clean doesn't reach. Plan on us being there most of the day.

House cleaning

Houses, condos and rentals across Columbus and its suburbs. Every visit runs the same checklist, so you never have to re-explain your house.
