Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning

Move cleans that get deposits back and fresh starts started.

Top-to-bottom cleaning for empty homes: cabinets, appliances, baseboards, closets and everything a landlord or new owner will inspect.

All Seasons Cleaning provides move-in and move-out cleaning in Elmhurst, IL and the western suburbs. Move cleans cover the full interior of an empty home: inside cabinets and drawers, inside the fridge and oven, baseboards, doors, switch plates, closets, bathrooms and floors. Move-out cleans follow landlord and property-manager checklists to protect security deposits. Most cleans are scheduled within 3 days and completed in a single visit.

Move cleans assume an empty or nearly empty home and go places recurring cleans skip. Cabinet interiors get wiped shelf by shelf. The oven gets degreased inside. The fridge gets emptied of crumbs and sticky rings. Baseboards, door frames and switch plates, the three things every landlord runs a finger across, get individual attention.

Move-out: built around your deposit

Security deposits in Illinois routinely exceed one month of rent, and cleaning charges are the most common deduction landlords take. We work from the same checklists Chicagoland property managers use for turnover inspections. Tell us who your landlord or management company is and we match their standard. Several Elmhurst and Lombard property managers already refer their outgoing tenants to us, which tells you whose standard we clean to.

Move-in: start from actually clean

The previous owner's broom-clean is not clean. A move-in clean before the boxes arrive means your dishes go into wiped cabinets and your toothbrush lands in a disinfected bathroom. Pair it with our deep cleaning service if the home sat vacant or the sellers had pets.

Timing and access

Most move cleans book within 3 days and finish in one visit of 4 to 7 hours depending on size. We coordinate lockbox or agent access directly, so you can hand off keys without meeting us there. Closing tomorrow? Call. We hold two same-week slots for exactly this.

FAQ

Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning questions, answered

How much does a move-out clean cost?

Most Elmhurst-area move-out cleans run $280 to $520 depending on square footage and condition. That usually beats a single cleaning deduction from a security deposit, and quotes are free.

Does the home need to be empty?

Empty is ideal and priced best. We can work around a few remaining boxes or furniture pieces, but cabinet and closet interiors must be empty for us to clean them.

Can you meet my landlord's checklist?

Yes. Send us the move-out checklist from your lease or property manager and we clean to it line by line. If anything gets flagged at inspection, we return and fix it free within 72 hours.

How fast can you schedule a move clean?

Usually within 3 business days, and we hold two same-week slots for closings and lease deadlines. Call for anything under 48 hours.

Do you clean inside the oven and refrigerator?

Yes, both are included in every move clean, not sold as add-ons.
