What does move in and move out cleaning cover in Birch Run?

Move in and move out cleaning is a top-to-bottom clean of a home that is changing hands, done while the rooms are empty or close to it. Busy B's Professional Cleaning does it for homes and rentals around Birch Run, Frankenmuth, Clio, Saginaw and Flint. Brooke Battles and her crew work through the spots that get skipped while you pack: dust, dirt, baseboards, bathroom vents, floors and the insides of cabinets.

Moving out, you hand over a space that looks cared for. Moving in, you start with a place that feels fresh before the first box comes through the door. Landlords and tenants both use a clean like this around showings and inspections.

You send a text, we talk by phone, and Brooke comes to see the space and gives you a quote. If your home needs more than a move clean, read about our deep cleaning, or see how we keep a lived-in home fresh with residential cleaning.

Plan it in order

Two moves, two timelines

Whether you are handing over keys or waiting on boxes, the clean works best when the rooms are empty. Here is how each side usually lines up.

Moving out: before you hand over keys

Lock in your date
Text or call as soon as you know your closing or lease end date. Brooke comes by for the quote and you pick a day together.
Empty the rooms
Clear closets, cabinets and drawers so the crew can reach every surface. Mention anything staying behind when you get your quote.
We clean top to bottom
Bathrooms, floors, baseboards, light fixtures and the corners, room by room.
Walk it one last time
Look the home over yourself before you hand over the keys to a space that looks cared for.

Moving in: before the boxes arrive

Book while it is empty
An empty home is the easiest time to clean. Ask for your quote before the movers show up.
We clean before your things arrive
Cabinets and drawers, bathrooms, floors and baseboards get attention while nothing is in the way.
Settle in
Unpack into a home that is already clean, so your first night goes to settling in instead of scrubbing.

"I never believed the saying, make a silk purse out of a pig's ear, until I hired Brooke and her crew to take my home of 38 years look new on the inside. I was so amazed at how fresh and clean every room looked..."

Good to know

Move cleaning questions in Birch Run

How far ahead should I book a move out clean around my closing date?

Reach out as soon as you know your closing or lease end date. Brooke comes to see the space, gives you a quote and picks a day with you. Most people aim for after the movers finish and before the final walkthrough, since the rooms need to be empty. Earlier contact gives you more choice of days.

Will a move out clean help me get my deposit back?

We cannot promise a deposit outcome, because that decision belongs to your landlord. What we can do is clean the home thoroughly: bathrooms, floors, baseboards and the corners that get missed. A clean space often matters at a showing or inspection. Check what your lease expects, then tell us at the quote.

Should the home be empty or can it still be furnished?

Empty is best, because the crew can reach cabinets, drawers, floors and baseboards without working around furniture. If a few pieces will stay, such as a bed or a couch, say so at the quote so the scope is clear. A fully furnished, lived-in home may fit our deep cleaning better.

What is the difference between move cleaning and deep cleaning?

Move in and move out cleaning is for a home changing hands, usually empty or nearly empty. Deep cleaning is for a home you are living in that needs more attention than a regular visit. If you are not sure which fits, describe the space at the quote and Brooke will tell you which makes sense.

How does the quote work and what does it cost?

Pricing depends on the size and condition of the home and whether it is empty, so each job is quoted on its own. You send us a text, we chat by phone, and Brooke comes to see the space before giving you a quote. Tell us your move date and what you want covered.
