Cleaning checklist
Which cleaning should I choose?
Choose Standard for routine upkeep in a lived-in home, Deep for a first-time or build-up reset, and Move In/Out when an unfurnished home is changing occupants and needs appliance and cabinet interiors cleaned. Compare best fit, boundaries, preparation, and every room below.
Choose by situation
Standard vs Deep vs Move In/Out
This quick comparison helps you choose a tier. The room-by-room tables below define the detailed service scope.
| Service | Best fit | Scope boundary | Prepare before arrival |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Clean | Routine upkeep for a lived-in home on a weekly, biweekly, or monthly schedule. | Visible, frequently touched surfaces. Appliance and cabinet interiors are not included unless selected as an eligible extra. | Pick up clutter, clear the sink if it needs wiping, secure sensitive items, and settle nervous pets in a closed room. |
| Deep Clean | A first professional clean, a home not thoroughly cleaned in several months, or a seasonal or pre-event reset. | Standard scope plus build-up areas such as baseboards, blinds, window sills, and shower scale. Inside the oven, refrigerator, and cabinets remain extras. Base prices run from $159 to $689, including tax. | Make surfaces accessible and arrange any request to move heavy furniture or appliances in advance. |
| Move In/Out | An unfurnished home being handed to a new occupant, landlord, buyer, or seller. | Deep scope plus inside cabinets, oven, refrigerator, and closets. Walls are spot-treated for scuffs, not fully washed. Base prices run from $234 to $764, including tax. | Leave the home unfurnished; a few small items are usually fine. Defrost the freezer the night before when possible. |
Airbnb turnovers, post-construction, and commercial cleans follow their own scopes. See Hotel/Airbnb, Post Construction, and Commercial. Hosts can also use the printable Airbnb turnover handoff planner.

What we don't do
Being clear about scope up front beats a surprise on cleaning day. These aren't part of any residential service at any price:
- Exterior windows, siding, or window tracks beyond a wipe-down
- Full wall washing (move in/out cleans spot-treat scuffs)
- Carpet shampooing or steam cleaning
- Pet waste, litter boxes, or accident cleanup (biohazard)
- Yard or attic cleanout
- Hauling away large items, debris, or trash beyond what fits in your bins
- Moving heavy furniture or appliances (light chairs and tables are fine; heavy items only by advance arrangement)
