Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning

Walk in to a spotless new chapter.

Whether you’re handing over the keys or picking them up, our move-in / move-out cleaning gets the property spotless — inside the cabinets, the oven, the fridge, and every baseboard.

Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning in South Florida

Realtors, landlords and property managers across Boca Raton, Delray, West Palm Beach and Jupiter book us to turn units between tenants. Tenants book us to maximize their security deposit return. Either way, we document everything with before/after photos if you need them. We treat every move like the next family is walking through the door in a few hours — because in South Florida's rental and resale market, they usually are.

Move-out cleaning vs. move-in cleaning — two different jobs

People assume these are the same service with a different name, but the priorities aren't the same. A move-out clean is judged against a standard someone else will inspect: a landlord, a property manager, or a broker doing a final walkthrough before closing. The goal is to erase the footprint of the outgoing tenant — grease built up inside the oven over a two-year lease, water spots baked into the shower glass, the layer of dust behind the fridge nobody sees until it's time to move it. A move-in clean has a different job: making sure the new occupant isn't inheriting someone else's dust, allergens, or the fine construction grit that lingers after a renovation, even in a unit that looks clean at a glance.

Timing matters too. In South Florida's snowbird season — roughly November through April — condos and rentals turn over fast, sometimes with only a day or two between tenants. In the off-season, when seasonal residents head north, units can sit vacant for months with the A/C set high to save on electricity. That combination of humidity and low airflow is exactly when mildew gets a foothold on grout, window tracks and closet interiors, so a move-in clean scheduled after a long vacancy often needs more attention to those spots than one scheduled right after an occupied lease ends.

What landlords and property managers actually check

After hundreds of turnovers, a pattern shows up in nearly every walkthrough. Inspectors open cabinets and the oven first, because those interiors are the most common source of deposit deductions. Next they check grout lines and window tracks for mildew and sand — both of which build up fast in a coastal climate. Baseboards and corners get a look for cobwebs, and carpets get checked for stains or lingering odor. A standard deep clean covers the visible surfaces of a home someone still lives in; a move-out clean goes further into cabinet and appliance interiors precisely because those are the details that get flagged at a final inspection. If you're not moving and just want a seasonal reset, our deep cleaning service covers the everyday version of that same thoroughness.

Timing your clean around the lease or closing date

The best window for a move-out clean is after the furniture and boxes are gone but before keys change hands — an empty unit lets us reach every corner and finish faster. For move-ins, we can work a few hours ahead of your delivery truck so floors and cabinets are ready before anything gets set down. Condo and HOA buildings across Palm Beach and Broward often add their own layer of logistics: many require advance notice for movers, a reserved service elevator, or a certificate of insurance on file with the building office before any vendor is allowed up. We can supply a COI ahead of time so that step doesn't hold up your schedule. Lease turnovers cluster heavily around month-end, so if your move date is set, it's worth locking in your appointment early through our contact page rather than waiting until the last week.

For property managers: invoicing, photo documentation & multi-unit turns

We work with property managers handling multiple units across Palm Beach and Broward and can invoice direct to the management company or to the individual unit, whichever fits your accounting. Every move-out includes a photo report at no extra charge — useful documentation for both sides if a deposit dispute ever comes up, and a quick way to confirm a unit is ready to re-list or show. For portfolios with regular turnover, we can also set up recurring residential cleaning between tenants on units that sit vacant longer than expected, so they show well at every showing rather than just the first one.

Pricing: from $325, and what moves it

Move-in / move-out cleaning starts at $325 for a smaller, fully vacant unit with easy access. From there, price moves with square footage, number of bathrooms (grout takes real time to do properly), and how much buildup is in the oven and fridge after a long-term tenancy. Popular add-ons include carpet extraction, wall spot-cleaning, pressure washing, and paint touch-up coordination. See the full breakdown on our pricing page, or request an exact quote for your address — we typically respond within an hour.

Frequently asked

Will this get my security deposit back?
In our experience, yes — over 95% of tenants who book a full GranMarquez move-out report full or near-full deposit return. Standard wear-and-tear repairs are not our scope, but a photo-documented clean removes the most common deductions.
Do you work with property managers?
Yes. We service multi-unit PMs across Palm Beach and Broward and can invoice direct or to the unit. Email us for a property-management rate sheet.
Can you clean before furniture is moved in?
That's our favorite scenario — empty homes get a deeper clean in less time. Just give us a 2-hour window before delivery.
How is a move-out clean different from your regular deep clean?
A move-out includes inside-cabinet and inside-appliance deep work — ovens, fridges, cabinet interiors — that's optional in a standard deep clean, because a deep clean is designed for a home someone still lives in. See our deep cleaning page for the everyday version.
Do I need to be present during the cleaning?
No. Most moves don't require you to be there — coordinate access with your landlord, agent or our team, and we'll handle the rest and let you know when the job's done.
How far in advance should I book, especially at month-end?
Lease turnovers cluster around month-end, so it's the busiest stretch on our calendar. We offer same-day and weekend service most weeks, but booking as soon as your move date is confirmed gives you the best pick of times.
Do you clean condos with HOA move-in/move-out requirements?
Yes. We regularly work within building rules across Palm Beach and Broward high-rises, including reserved elevator windows and advance notice. We're licensed and insured and can email a certificate of insurance to your management office ahead of time.
What if the unit has mildew from sitting vacant with the A/C off?
Light surface mildew on grout, tracks or closet walls is a normal part of a South Florida move-out and we handle it as part of the clean. Heavier mold growth from an extended shutdown may need a remediation specialist first — we'll always tell you honestly if that's the case.
Is carpet cleaning included in a move-out clean?
No, it's a popular add-on rather than a standard inclusion. See our carpet & upholstery cleaning page, which starts from $89 per room.
