Move In & Move Out Cleaning in NYC
Moving in New York is already one of the most stressful experiences in adult life — the broker fees, the movers who can't fit the couch up the stairwell, the scramble to forward your mail and change your address on 40 different accounts. The last thing you need is to lose $1,000 of your security deposit because your landlord found grease in the oven or soap scum on the shower door. Our move in/out cleaning covers every surface your landlord will inspect, inside and out. We'll handle the clean — you handle everything else.

NYC Landlords Check Everything — So Do We
If you've rented in New York, you know the drill. Your landlord or management company walks the apartment after you move out with a checklist designed to find reasons to withhold your deposit. They open the oven. They run a finger along the top of the kitchen cabinets. They check the grout in the bathroom. They look behind the toilet. They inspect the inside of every closet. And if they find anything — and they will, because you just spent three years living there — that's money off your deposit.
NYC security deposits are typically one month's rent. In Manhattan, that's often $3,000 to $5,000 or more. In Brooklyn, $2,000 to $4,000. A professional move-out cleaning costs a fraction of what you'd lose to deposit deductions. We clean every surface your landlord checks because we know what they check — we've been doing this across all five boroughs since 2014, through over 78,000 total appointments. The oven interior, the refrigerator shelves, the inside of every cabinet, the window tracks, the grout, the baseboards, the light switch plates. All of it.
We also provide a completion checklist after every move-out clean that documents what was done. Some of our clients photograph the apartment alongside our checklist and send both to their landlord as move-out documentation. It's not bulletproof — some landlords will deduct no matter what — but it dramatically reduces the chance and gives you evidence if you need to dispute in housing court.
Moving In? Don't Inherit Someone Else's Mess
The other side of the move is just as important. You signed the lease, you picked up the keys, and you're standing in your new apartment. It looks empty and clean — until you open a cabinet and find crumbs. Until you look inside the oven and see baked-on residue from the previous tenant's cooking experiments. Until you notice hair in the bathroom drain and dust in the closets. The previous tenant's landlord may have "had it cleaned," but the standard for that is wildly inconsistent. Sometimes it's a thorough professional deep clean. Sometimes it's a guy with a mop who spent 45 minutes on a two-bedroom.
A move-in clean gives you a genuine fresh start. We treat it with the same thoroughness as a move-out — every cabinet, every appliance interior, every grout line, every corner. The best time to do it is before your furniture arrives, when we have full access to every wall, floor, and fixture. You move your stuff into a home that's actually clean — not just clean enough to pass a quick glance. In a city where you're paying premium rent for every square foot, you deserve to start with a space that meets the standard you're paying for.
"My management company was notorious for nickel-and-diming on deposits. I booked Maid Marines for the move-out clean, took photos of every room after they were done, and sent the checklist to my landlord. I got my full deposit back — first time that's ever happened in four apartments."
