What Happens During a Move-In Clean?

Home > House Cleaning Blog > What Happens During a Move-In Clean?

You’ve just received the keys to your new home. The previous owners assure you they cleaned it last week – standard cleaning, quick turnover, job done. Although they did an admirable job, there’s a world of difference between “clean enough” and “clean enough to call home”. This is where the difference between a regular clean and a move-in clean comes in.

What Happens During a Move-In Clean?

In this blog, we’ll highlight the importance of going the extra mile, even if your new home looks spotless. Here are some key reasons why we recommend scheduling a move-in clean before traveling to your new home:

  • Ensure a Healthy Living Environment. When you think about it, the previous owners likely focused on making the house presentable, not necessarily creating a hygienic living space for your family. Did they pull out the fridge to clean behind it? Or scrub the grout between the bathroom tiles? Probably not. A move-in clean will ensure every nook and cranny of your home is spotless and hygienic, promoting a healthier environment for you from day one.
  • Improve Your New Home’s Condition. Perhaps the former owners left behind stubborn stains on the carpets or discolored tiles in the bathroom. Maybe the oven has baked-on grease, or the kitchen cabinets have sticky residue from years of use. Taking time to address these issues now will save you from later headaches by helping you identify any areas needing attention. Plus, there’s nothing like seeing your bathroom tiles shine like new!
