About the area
Local details, clearly sourced.
Local service details
With 75.4% of homes built before 1960 and only 5.3% built in 2000 or later, many properties have been standing for decades, potentially accumulating various residues from previous occupants. Ensuring a clean slate is a common priority for those settling into a new home.
What the service covers, step by step — the checklist, the timings and the published starting price — is on the move-in cleaning page. This page is about running it locally. For everything else we do in Passaic, see cleaning services in Passaic.

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.
