Service details and local conditions
Ensuring your new home is pristine upon arrival is a common step for those moving. In Homewood, where 6,069 housing units are owner occupied, many householders seek to have their new space professionally cleaned before personal belongings arrive. This service helps create a fresh start, regardless of whether your new home has 3,879 three-bedroom units or 1,124 one-bedroom units.
This preparation is particularly relevant as 20,876 householders lived in the same house 1 year ago, indicating a significant portion of residents are settling into an existing community structure. While the January low of 32.9°F in Jefferson County, Alabama, might influence seasonal maintenance, it does not dictate the immediate cleaning requirements of a vacant home. The goal is to provide a clean slate for the 9,830 occupied housing units by tenure.

Frequently asked questions
How much moving actually happens in Homewood?
Enough to keep a steady rota, but this is not a high-turnover area: 20,876 of 24,345 householders were in the same home a year earlier (US Census Bureau ACS 5-Year 2024 (2020-2024), Table B07013). Move-in cleans here are individual bookings spread through the year rather than one lease cycle everybody moves on, so slots are usually available on the date you need.
What does a move-in clean cost and how long does it take?
By the size of the empty property, from the published starting price on the national move-in page. 3,879 of 10,882 homes in Homewood have three bedrooms and 3,289 have two (US Census Bureau ACS 5-Year 2024 (2020-2024), Table B25041; US Census Bureau ACS 5-Year 2024 (2020-2024), Table B25035), so most bookings here are a half to a full day. Book it for the gap between closing and the truck — the cabinet interiors and appliance seals are reachable once and never again.
What does an empty-house clean actually include?
The surfaces you cannot reach once the van is unloaded: inside kitchen cabinets and drawers, refrigerator and oven interiors, bathroom fixtures, closet shelves, baseboards, and the floors last. The full checklist is on the national page.
The sellers left it broom-clean — do we still need it?
Say so and we will tell you honestly. Broom-clean changes the time, not the checklist: cabinet interiors, appliance seals and bathroom fixtures are almost never covered by it.
Where do I find what is included, step by step?
On the national move-in cleaning page — it carries the checklist, the timings and the published starting price, so it is maintained in one place rather than reworded on every local page.
What happens if something is missed?
Tell us within 36 hours and we arrange a return visit at no extra cost.
