Move-In Cleaning Services

Start fresh in your new home. A move-in clean sanitizes kitchens, bathrooms, cabinets and floors while the rooms are still empty, so you unpack into a home that is clean to your standard, not the last owner's.

Why book move-in cleaning with Hello Cleaners

01

Clean before the boxes arrive

Empty rooms mean every shelf, drawer and floor edge can be reached. It is the easiest time a home will ever be to clean.

02

Kitchens and bathrooms sanitized

Inside cabinets, the fridge and the oven, plus showers, toilets and vanities, are cleaned before you use them.

03

Quick to arrange around a move

Book between closing or key pickup and moving day. We confirm the scope and price first.

Why book a move-in cleaning

Even a home that looks tidy at the walk-through can have dust inside cabinets, grease on the range hood and residue in showers. A move-in cleaning service handles all of that before your food, clothes and toiletries go in.

It is also a good moment for jobs that are harder later: carpet cleaning in empty rooms, appliance cleaning before first use, or pressure washing the entrance and patio.

Move-in cleaning for renters and buyers

Renters can book a move-in clean in the days between key collection and moving in. Buyers often book one after closing. Either way, we clean the empty home to the same checklist.

If you are leaving another home at the same time, a move-out cleaning on the old address can be arranged alongside, so both ends of the move are handled.

Your new-home cleaning checklist

Start where food and personal items will go: kitchen cabinets, drawers, pantry shelves, the fridge and the oven. Then bathrooms, including medicine cabinets and the areas around and behind the toilet. Closets, wardrobes and shelves are wiped so clothes go into clean spaces.

Finally, floors throughout. Vacuuming and mopping an empty home reaches the corners and edges that furniture will cover for years, which is why a move-in cleaning is worth doing even when the home looks fine.

Make moving week easier

Book the clean as soon as you have the keys, ideally a day or more before the movers arrive. Check that utilities are connected so there is power and hot water for the visit.

If you are busy packing at the other address, tell us how to access the new home. We confirm the details before the visit and you can check the result when you arrive.

Common questions

Still unsure?
Call (307) 263-5458
How much does move-in cleaning cost?

From $180 per visit is the published starting rate. The final price depends on size, condition and add-ons and is confirmed before booking.

Should the home be empty?

Yes, if possible. It allows a full clean inside cabinets and closets and along every floor edge.

Is it different from move-out cleaning?

The checklist is similar. Move-in focuses on sanitizing for your use; move-out focuses on handing the home back in good condition.

Can you clean carpets too?

Yes. Carpet cleaning can be added and is best done while the rooms are empty.

How soon can you come?

Tell us your key date. Same-day cleaning is sometimes available, subject to local availability.

What if something is missed?

Tell us within 36 hours and we will review it under our satisfaction guarantee.

Do you disinfect bathrooms and kitchens?

Yes. Kitchen surfaces, sinks and bathroom fixtures are cleaned and disinfected as part of move-in cleaning.

Can you also clean my old home?

Yes. Book move-out cleaning at the old address and we will try to schedule both around your move.
