Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning FAQ for Madison Homeowners

How often should Madison homeowners get move-in / move-out cleaning?
Given Madison's cold winters averaging 20°f with 51 inches of annual snowfall, most homeowners benefit from move-in / move-out cleaning at least once a year. Heavy snow removal from roofs and lakefront properties (Nov–March) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Madison most need move-in / move-out cleaning?
Craftsman and bungalow homes near the UW campus and Victorian homes in Mansion Hill and Orton Park are the most common home types in Madison and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
Should I clean before or after moving out furniture?
After is always better. Empty spaces are far easier to clean thoroughly — you can reach all walls, floors, and hidden areas that furniture normally covers.
Will this guarantee I get my security deposit back?
A professional move-out clean significantly improves your chances, but deposit returns also depend on pre-existing damage and your lease terms. We use industry-standard checklists designed for deposit return.
How far in advance should I book?
Book 1–2 weeks in advance if possible. Move-out cleanings are time-sensitive and slots fill quickly, especially at month-end when most leases turn over.
Do you clean inside cabinets and appliances?
Yes. Inside all cabinets, drawers, oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave are standard inclusions in our move-out package.
