Our move in cleaning service is designed for homes that need thorough cleaning before furniture and personal belongings are moved in. This service focuses on hygiene, dust removal, and deep surface cleaning to ensure your new home is clean, fresh, and ready for immediate occupancy.
This service is suitable for rental units, resale homes, and properties that have been vacant for some time.
Move in cleaning is a one-time, intensive cleaning service carried out before moving into a new home. It allows cleaners to reach all surfaces effectively while the unit is empty, ensuring a hygienic environment for new occupants.
Unlike regular house cleaning, move in cleaning is designed to ensure the home is fully cleaned, sanitised, and ready for comfortable living from day one.
Move in cleaning is ideal for:
Tenants moving into a new rental unit
Homeowners moving into a resale property
Families with children or elderly family members
Units that have been vacant for some time
Homes that require hygiene-focused cleaning before occupancy
Below is a general guide for our move in cleaning service pricing based on property size, job scope, the condition of the home, and estimated manpower required. Final pricing will be confirmed after understanding your specific requirements. For larger properties or special requirements, please contact us for a customised quotation.
Our cleaners use professional-grade cleaning tools and detergents suitable for move in cleaning. Cleaning supplies can be provided upon request if you prefer not to prepare anything.
A home may appear clean at first glance, but dust, bacteria, and residue often remain in less visible areas. Professional move in cleaning helps to:
Improve indoor hygiene and air quality
Remove dust and dirt left by previous occupants
Eliminate odours trapped in kitchens, bathrooms, and cabinets
Reduce cleaning stress before moving day
Our trained cleaners use proper tools and suitable detergents to carry out systematic cleaning across the entire home.
To achieve the best results, we recommend:
Completing all renovation or repair work before cleaning. If renovation works were recently completed, a Post Renovation Cleaning Service may be required first to remove fine dust before move in cleaning.
Ensuring the unit is empty before our cleaners arrive
Making sure water and electricity are available
Informing us in advance if there are fragile fixtures or areas requiring extra care
