Move-Out Cleaning Checklist

What landlords check before returning your deposit — and how to pass every time.

Why Move-Out Cleaning Matters

Most landlords walk the property with a checklist and photograph every room. A professional move-out clean removes the biggest reasons deposits get withheld: grease, soap scum, dust on baseboards, and marks on walls.

Kitchen — The #1 Inspection Point

✔ Oven degreased inside and out, racks scrubbed
✔ Fridge emptied, defrosted and sanitized
✔ Microwave, dishwasher and range hood cleaned
✔ Cabinets wiped inside and out, shelves lined if needed
✔ Sink descaled, counters spotless
✔ Floors mopped behind appliances

Bathrooms

✔ Toilet sanitized, no limescale
✔ Shower and tub scrubbed, glass doors streak-free
✔ Vanity, mirror and fixtures polished
✔ Grout and caulk spot-cleaned

Walls, Floors and Extras

✔ Walls spot-cleaned (marks, scuffs, cobwebs)
✔ Baseboards wiped
✔ Windows cleaned inside
✔ Closets vacuumed and wiped
✔ Carpet vacuumed or steam-cleaned if required by lease
✔ Light fixtures and ceiling fans dusted

DIY or Hire a Pro?

If you have the time, the DIY route works — but it takes a full day and landlords still find things you missed. A professional move-out clean in OKC costs $300-500, and it's usually cheaper than losing a $1,000+ deposit. Most of our clients book a move-out clean on moving day and hand the keys over the same afternoon.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I schedule the move-out clean?

The day you move out, or the day before if the landlord hands the keys over to new tenants quickly.

Will the cleaning guarantee my deposit?

Nothing can guarantee it, but a professional clean covers every inspection point landlords check. We also clean behind appliances — the usual hidden culprit.

Do you clean carpets?

We can add carpet steam cleaning to the move-out service — ask when you book.
