## The truck leaves at noon and the landlord walks through at three

Once the furniture is out, every scuff on the baseboards and every crumb in the drawers shows. Packing and moving already fill the week, and the empty rooms still need a clean before the keys change hands.

## Hand over the keys, or unpack, in a clean empty home

With the rooms empty, the cabinets, closets and corners that furniture hid are easy to get at. You see the price for your home before booking, so the move budget has one less unknown.

## Price the move clean tonight, then fit it around the truck

1. **Price the empty home.** Enter bedrooms, bathrooms and rough square footage and pick Move-in/out. The clean takes longer than a deep clean, and the price follows that time at your area's rate.
2. **Get a quote you can forward.** Add your name, email and the address you're leaving or moving into, and we email the quote to share with a roommate or landlord. The form takes no payment.
3. **Fit it around the move.** We contact you to set a day between the truck and the handover. When we arrive we look over the home to confirm the price, then clean it that same visit.

We confirm your price before we start and never change it partway through. 99% of online quotes don't change.

## A 1,500 square foot move clean in five cities

The table shows the estimator's price for a one-time move-in or move-out clean of a 3-bed, 2-bath home of about 1,500 square feet in five of our cities, with the hours it takes. Enter the home you're moving from or to and see yours.

## A move-out price that fits the moving budget now

- **Priced before the boxes are packed.** You can price the move clean while the house is still full, from the size of the home, and plan it for after the truck leaves.
- **An empty home has its own level.** Move-in/out is priced for the extra time an empty home takes, above a deep clean, so the number already allows for the detail work that empty rooms reveal.

## Questions

### How much does a move-out cleaning cost?

It depends on the size of the home and your area. The Move-in/out level takes more time than a deep clean, and we price it from that time at your ZIP's rate. Enter the bedrooms, bathrooms and square footage in the estimator and the price appears in about a minute.

### Will the price change when you see the empty house?

We look over the home on the day to confirm the quote before we start, and from then it holds for the rest of the clean. Describe the state the home will be in when you book, so the quote matches it. We confirm your price before we start and never change it partway through. 99% of online quotes don't change.

### Will a move-out clean get my deposit back?

The landlord or property manager decides on the deposit, so no cleaning can promise it. Put their move-out checklist and handover deadline in the notes, and we'll go over it with you when we contact you to schedule.

### Can you keep the new place clean once I've moved in?

Yes. After the move clean, set up standard visits in the estimator: weekly runs 20% less per visit than a one-time clean, every two weeks 15% less, and monthly 10% less.

### Does the home have to be empty?

An empty home is the easiest to clean fully. If furniture, boxes or trash will still be there, list them in the notes along with the lockbox or key plan, and we'll go over it when we set the day.
