Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning FAQ for New York City Homeowners

How often should New York City homeowners get move-in / move-out cleaning?
Given New York City's harsh winters with freeze-thaw cycles damaging masonry, most homeowners benefit from move-in / move-out cleaning at least once a year. Winter ice dam formation on flat roofs often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in New York City most need move-in / move-out cleaning?
Brownstones and townhouses and Pre-war apartment buildings are the most common home types in New York City 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.
