Move in and move out cleaning, built to pass inspection
The clean that decides whether you get your last month back, or whether you spend your first night in a new place scrubbing someone else's bathroom.
A move clean is done on an empty or near-empty home, which changes everything. There is nothing to clean around, so everything gets cleaned: inside every cupboard, drawer and closet, behind and under appliances, the shelf in the linen closet that has not been touched in six years.
We work this backwards from the walkthrough. A landlord, property manager or buyer's agent checks a predictable list, and that list is what we cover.
Moving out
Every cupboard and drawer emptied of crumbs and wiped inside and out. Fridge and freezer cleaned inside, defrosted if needed, and left with the door ajar if the power is going off. Oven interior, racks and stovetop degreased. Bathroom fully descaled, including the shower glass and around the base of the toilet. Closet shelves and rails wiped. Interior windows, sills and tracks. Light fixtures and switch plates. Floors washed last, on the way out.
In a rental, the finishes matter more than the square footage. We pay attention to the places deposits actually get withheld over: oven, fridge seals, bathroom grout, and the marks behind where furniture sat.
Moving in
The previous tenant's bar for clean is not your bar. A move-in clean sanitises everything you are about to put your own things into: cupboard interiors, closets, the fridge, the bathroom, and every floor, before a single box gets unpacked.
Book it for the gap between closing or key handover and your movers arriving. Even a two-hour window is enough for a condo.
Condo move logistics in Toronto
Most Toronto buildings require you to book the service elevator and give the concierge a certificate of insurance from your movers before anything can be carried in or out. That booking window is usually four hours and it fills up weeks out.
Tell us your elevator slot when you book and we will schedule around it. If your building asks for paperwork from us before letting us in, send us the request and we will tell you straight away whether we can meet it.

About move in / out
Do you do move-out cleaning for Toronto renters?
Yes, and it is one of the most common things we are booked for. Ontario landlords cannot withhold a deposit for ordinary wear and tear, but a genuinely dirty unit is a different argument, and a documented professional clean removes it. Ask and we will send you a dated receipt describing the work.
Is the oven and fridge included in a move-out clean?
Yes. Unlike our standard and deep cleans, oven and fridge interiors are included by default on move in and move out jobs, because a walkthrough will always check both.
How far in advance should I book a move clean?
Aim for two weeks, and more at the end of the month. Toronto leases overwhelmingly turn over on the first, so the last three days of any month are the busiest slots we have.
Does the home need to be empty?
It gets a much better result empty, and that is what the price assumes. We can work around a few remaining boxes, but if the home is still furnished we cannot clean inside cupboards or behind appliances, so tell us in advance and we will quote it as a deep clean instead.
