Cleaning Before the Keys Go Back
Move-out cleaning is for the point where the property needs to be left in a sensible condition before keys are handed back, photos are taken or someone else moves in.
This is not always the same as a full end of tenancy clean. Some properties only need a practical freshen-up. Others need more time on kitchens, bathrooms, floors, internal windows and dust. We can quote based on what the property actually needs.
Send the address area, property size, condition and any photos if you have them. It makes it much easier to give a realistic price.
- Empty flats and houses
- Before key handover
- Kitchens, bathrooms and surfaces
- Useful for tenants, sellers and landlords
When Move-Out Cleaning Makes Sense
A move-out clean is usually needed when the property is about to change hands or needs to look presentable quickly.
Property Sale
For homeowners who want the house looking cleaner before photos, viewings or completion.
Empty Rental
For landlords with a property that needs a clean before the next tenant arrives.
Last Clear Out
For properties where furniture has gone and the dust, marks and dirt are now more obvious.

A Quick Note on Expectations
Move-out cleans can vary massively. A tidy property that just needs a final clean is a different job to a property that has been lived in hard or left empty for months.
If you need extras such as oven cleaning, fridge cleaning, carpet cleaning or heavy limescale removal, mention it at the start so the quote is clear.
- Send the property type and Birmingham area
- Mention the deadline or preferred date
- Include photos if the condition is hard to explain

Move-Out Cleaning FAQs
A few common questions before you send over the property details.
Is move-out cleaning the same as end of tenancy cleaning?
It can be similar, but not always. Some move-out cleans are lighter, while others need a more detailed end of tenancy style clean. We quote based on the condition and what needs doing.
Do you clean empty properties?
Yes. Empty properties are often easier to clean properly because furniture is out of the way, but the condition still affects the time needed.
Can you clean before keys are handed back?
Yes, subject to availability. Send the deadline as early as possible so we can check whether the job can be fitted in.
Do you clean ovens and fridges?
We can include oven or fridge cleaning if requested, but it is best to mention these when asking for a quote.
What should I send for a quote?
Send the property type, area, number of rooms, deadline, condition and photos if available. Photos help avoid guessing.
