How Does MaidThis Move-In/Out Cleaning Process Work?
Moving is not easy. In addition to sorting, organizing, and packing, you need to make sure that the home you leave is clean. The experts at MaidThis can help you make sure that your former home and your new home are both clean and refreshed! You can simply book a single move in cleaning before you move into your new home. If you own multiple properties, you can create a checklist for your maids to use for your move in and move out cleaning.

It is very easy to schedule your cleaning service
If you need a one time move in/out cleaning, just let MaidThis know when you’ll be out of your home or apartment. You can book your appointment online or over the phone. If you are a landlord or a vacation rental property owner, you may want to schedule apartment cleaning services each time you have a new rental agreement.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in a move-in and move-out cleaning service in Austin?
A move-in and move-out cleaning typically covers kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, and living areas. This often includes cleaning inside the microwave, wiping cabinet fronts, scrubbing shower tile, sanitizing toilets, dusting baseboards, and vacuuming and mopping floors.
Add-ons like inside ovens, refrigerators, or interior windows can usually be arranged for an additional cost.
What is the difference between move-in and move-out?
The level of cleaning will be the same. If you’re moving into a new space and you want it thoroughly scrubbed, you may choose to order a deep cleaning for the space so the refrigerator and oven are both cleaned as well.
How much does move-out cleaning cost in Austin, TX?
Pricing usually depends on the size of the home, the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, the property’s condition, and any requested extras. Homes with heavy buildup, pet hair, or hard-water stains may require additional time. Apartments and condos generally cost less than larger single-family homes, but each quote is based on the specific cleaning needs.
How long does a move-in or move-out cleaning take?
Most move-in and move-out cleaning appointments in Austin take between 3 and 6 hours, depending on the home’s size and condition.
A recently maintained one-bedroom apartment may take less time, while larger homes with multiple bathrooms or extensive buildup often require longer appointments to complete detailed cleaning tasks.
Do I need move-out cleaning to get my security deposit back?
A professional cleaning cannot guarantee the return of a security deposit because landlords have different requirements. However, leaving the property clean and presentable can help reduce cleaning-related deductions.
Many property managers expect kitchens, bathrooms, appliances, and floors to be cleaned before final inspections are completed.
