About move-out cleaning

When you're leaving an apartment in New York City, landlords and property managers typically conduct a detailed inspection before releasing your security deposit. A standard tidy-up won't cut it — they're looking for a thorough clean of every surface, appliance, and corner of the unit.

Our move-out cleaning is built around what inspectors actually look for: inside appliances, inside cabinets, behind fixtures, grout and tile, baseboards, and every surface in between. We follow a comprehensive checklist and can work from your landlord's specific requirements if you have one.

We also offer move-in cleaning for the same scope of work — so whether you're leaving or arriving, we'll make sure the apartment is in the best condition possible. Available across all five NYC boroughs and in Hoboken and Jersey City.

Pricing guidance

Move-out cleaning prices vary depending on apartment size and current condition. Heavily used units or those requiring wall washing or extra attention may be on the higher end. As a general reference:

Studio / 1 Bedroom $250 – $350+
2 Bedroom $320 – $430+
3 Bedroom $400 – $550+
4+ Bedroom or larger Quoted individually

These are typical price ranges and may vary depending on the condition of the unit and any specific requirements. We provide a clear, itemized quote before any work begins.

What clients say

"Hired them for an end-of-lease deep clean on my 2BR. Landlord signed off on the apartment right away and I got my full deposit back. Would absolutely use them again."

Marcus T. — Park Slope, Brooklyn

"I was stressed about the move-out inspection but they went through everything on the landlord's checklist. Passed on the first walkthrough. Really took the pressure off."

Yuki N. — Williamsburg, Brooklyn

"Solid service. They got into all the areas I'd been ignoring for years — inside the oven, the grout, under the fridge. Worth every penny for the deposit alone."

Carlos M. — Astoria, Queens

Frequently asked questions

Will a move-out cleaning guarantee I get my deposit back?

We can't guarantee what your landlord decides, but our move-out cleaning is designed to meet the standard inspection requirements that most NYC landlords and management companies expect. We've helped many clients successfully pass inspections and recover their full deposit. If there's a specific checklist from your landlord, share it with us and we'll work through it.

How far in advance should I book?

We recommend booking at least 2–3 days before your move-out date to ensure availability. If you need same-week service, call us directly and we'll do our best to accommodate you.

Do you also do move-in cleaning?

Yes. Whether you're moving in or moving out, the scope of the cleaning is essentially the same — a full deep clean to get the apartment in the best possible condition. Just specify whether it's move-in or move-out when you request your estimate.

What if my landlord is still not satisfied?

If your landlord has a specific concern after the cleaning, contact us right away. We'll review the situation and do our best to address it. We want the process to go smoothly for you.

Can I get a cleaning checklist?

Yes. We follow a comprehensive move-out checklist covering all the areas landlords typically inspect. If you'd like to see it or have a specific checklist from your management company, we're happy to work from it.

Do I need to be present during the cleaning?

No. Many clients hand off access via a key, lockbox, or building super and aren't present. We'll let you know when we're done and can send photos of the completed clean on request.
