Move-Out Cleaning Checklist: Leave Your Home Spotless

Mar 15, 20255 min read

Your landlord will inspect every corner. A professional move-out clean is the difference between getting your full deposit back and losing thousands of birr. Use this checklist.

Kitchen

Clean inside all cupboards and drawers. Degrease the oven, stovetop, and range hood filter. Wipe down all surfaces, tiles, and splashback. Clean the fridge inside and out, including the drip tray.

Bathrooms

Descale and scrub the toilet, sink, and shower or bath. Clean grout lines. Polish taps and fittings. Wipe down all tiles. Clean the mirror and any cabinets.

All Rooms

Wash all windows inside and out. Wipe down windowsills, skirting boards, and door frames. Clean light switches and power points. Remove all marks from walls.

Floors

Vacuum all carpets thoroughly. Mop all hard floors. Pay special attention to corners and under radiators where dust builds up.

Outdoor Areas

Sweep balconies, terraces, and car parks. Remove any items left in storage areas or on the property.

Final Check

Walk through every room with your original move-in inspection report. Photograph every room before you hand the keys back.
