Moving can be stressful enough without worrying about scrubbing baseboards or cleaning inside cabinets. That’s where professional move-in & move-out cleaning comes in. These services ensure your old or new home looks spotless, whether you’re turning over a rental, selling a property, or settling into your next chapter.
At Garden State Cleaning Co., we specialize in detailed cleanings that help homeowners, renters, property managers, and realtors make every move seamless.
What’s Included in a Move-Out Clean
A move-out clean is designed to leave your home or apartment in better-than-you-found-it condition. Landlords appreciate it, buyers expect it, and it can even help ensure you get your security deposit back.
Our move-out cleaning includes everything in a deep clean plus:
Interior cleaning of all cabinets and drawers
Inside of appliances (fridge, oven, microwave, dishwasher)
Baseboards, doors, and trim detailed
Light fixtures, vents, and ceiling fans dusted
Windowsills and ledges wiped
Floors vacuumed and mopped thoroughly
Bathrooms sanitized top to bottom
Final polish on mirrors, faucets, and hardware
If the home is empty, we also do a final walkthrough to make sure every corner looks picture-perfect for the next occupant.
Best for:
Tenants looking to secure their deposit
Homeowners preparing to list or close
Realtors or property managers prepping a home for showings

What’s Included in a Move-In Clean
When you’re moving into a new home, you shouldn’t have to worry about what was left behind. A move-in clean gives you a fresh, sanitized start before unpacking.
Our move-in cleaning covers everything in a move-out clean with an added focus on sanitation and touchpoints:
Deep disinfection of bathrooms and kitchens
Wiping interior shelves, drawers, and closets
Sanitizing light switches, doorknobs, and handles
Cleaning inside appliances before first use
Floor-to-ceiling dusting to remove construction or moving debris
We recommend booking your move-in clean before your furniture arrives, so our team can reach every surface for a true top-to-bottom reset.
Best for:
Homebuyers moving into a resale or new construction property
Renters ensuring a clean, safe start
Realtors or developers preparing a home for final walkthroughs
