Move-In and Move-Out Cleaning in New York
Move-in and move-out cleaning in New York for tenants, landlords and buyers. Cabinets, appliances, bathrooms and floors cleaned before the property changes hands. Every estimate is free.
Cleaning Before Keys Change Hands in New York
Move-in and move-out cleaning in New York happens on a deadline. There is a closing date, a landlord walkthrough or a new tenant on the way. The scope is different from a regular visit and the schedule is not flexible.
Cabinets are emptied and wiped inside. Appliances are cleaned inside and out. Bathrooms are reset from the floor up. This is closer to a deep cleaning than to a standard visit, because the property is meant to look untouched.
Move-In and Move-Out Cleaning Options in New York
The scope depends on which side of the move you are on. Each option below covers a different moment in the same transaction.
Move-Out Cleaning in New York
