Move Out Cleaning Charlotte NC for Apartments, Homes & Move-Ins
Move out cleaning in Charlotte for an empty home: inside cabinets and drawers, inside the oven, refrigerator and microwave, bathrooms, baseboards and floors in every room. It's the clean to book before a landlord's walk-through, a closing or your own move-in day. The home must be empty first.

Moving is hard enough. We get an empty home ready for the next owner, the landlord's inspection or your own move-in day.

- Priced by square footage and bathrooms
- Before you hand back the keys or before you unpack, across the Charlotte area
Booking a clean for an empty home
The home needs to be empty for a move-out clean. Book it for the day after your things are out.
Your price is based on the home's square footage and bathrooms, not on the hour. You see it before you book.
What gets professionally cleaned
- Kitchen: inside cabinets and drawers, inside the oven, refrigerator and microwave, counters and sink
- Bathrooms: tub and shower, toilets, sink and vanity, mirrors and floors
- Every room: baseboards and trim, doors, light switches, vents and floors
- Add-ons such as interior windows or wet-wiped blinds, priced when you book
Who books this clean
- Renters getting ready for the landlord's walk-through
- Sellers handing a home over to the buyer
- Buyers and new tenants who want the place clean before they unpack
- Landlords and property managers getting a unit ready for the next tenant
Bedrooms and bathrooms, room by room
Empty bedrooms and bathrooms show every bit of dust and soap scum, so our checklist goes into the details.
- Bedrooms: closet shelves and doors, baseboards and trim, wall spot cleaning, ceiling fans and light fixtures, window sills and floors
- Bathrooms: tub and shower scale and soap scum, walls and tile grout, toilets inside and out, sink, vanity and mirrors, baseboards, light fixtures and the exhaust fan
How it compares with other types of cleaning services
- Standard clean: regular upkeep for a lived-in home
- Deep clean: the detail work and buildup a regular clean skips, in a lived-in home
- Empty-home clean (this service): the same detail as a deep clean, so every cabinet, drawer and closet can be reached
Getting the home ready
- Move everything out first, including boxes, furniture and trash. We don't remove junk or large debris.
- Empty the refrigerator and the kitchen cabinets.
- Keep the power and water on until the clean is done.
- Leave a lockbox code, key code or front desk note in your booking. You don't need to be there.
After the move: recurring cleaning services
Once you're settled in, our recurring cleaning services keep the new place clean. Choose weekly, every 2 weeks or monthly, and every visit costs less than a one-time clean.
We keep the same cleaner for recurring visits whenever we can.
