Let’s Be Honest—Moving Is a Mess

Between packing up your life, changing addresses, and trying to remember where you put your coffee mug, the last thing you want to think about is scrubbing the bathtub. But here's the truth: house cleaning when moving isn’t optional—especially if you're hoping to get that security deposit back or start fresh in a new place.

Whether you’re renting, buying, selling, or just trying not to lose your mind, hiring professional cleaners can take a serious load off your shoulders.

At The CoBuilders, we specialize in making moves less messy (literally). Our team handles the deep cleaning so you can handle everything else.


Why Move-Related Cleaning Isn’t Just “Nice to Have”

You might be thinking, “Can’t I just wipe things down and call it good?” You could. But here’s what’s at stake:

🧼 Security Deposits

If you’re a renter, cleaning is not just a courtesy—it’s a condition. Landlords expect the place to look like no one ever lived there. Miss a greasy spot on the stove or leave lint in the dryer, and you could be saying goodbye to hundreds of dollars.

🏠 Selling Your Home?

Buyers notice everything. Clean homes look better in photos, smell better at showings, and make people want to say “yes.” A spotless home can mean faster offers and better prices.

✨ Moving Into a New Home

You’d be surprised what previous owners or tenants leave behind—dust, pet hair, soap scum, even old crumbs in the drawers. Yikes. Starting fresh means starting clean, and that’s where we come in.


What’s Included in a Move-In or Move-Out Cleaning?

At The CoBuilders, we don’t do “just okay.” We do wow-worthy clean—so you (or the next person) walks into a space that feels brand new.

Here’s what our team takes care of:

Kitchen

  • Inside and outside of cabinets and drawers
  • Counters, backsplash, and sinks
  • Stove, oven, fridge, microwave – all scrubbed
  • Floors mopped and shined

Bathrooms

  • Tubs, showers, and toilets sanitized
  • Mirrors and sinks polished
  • Cabinets wiped down inside and out
  • All surfaces disinfected

Living Areas & Bedrooms

  • Floors vacuumed and/or mopped
  • Baseboards, windowsills, and trim dusted
  • Light switches, vents, and door handles wiped
  • Spot cleaning for walls and doors

Need extras? We’ve got you:

  • Carpet shampooing
  • Window washing
  • Garage or patio clean-up
  • Inside appliances (yep, we’ll go there)

Timing It Right: When Should You Schedule a Move Cleaning?

Great question. Here's the game plan:

  • Moving Out? Schedule the clean after your stuff is out. That way, our team can get into every nook and cranny without dodging boxes.
  • Moving In? Book before your furniture shows up. It’s way easier to clean empty spaces, and you’ll get to move into a place that feels fresh and yours.

How Much Does It Cost?

We keep it simple and transparent. No surprises.

Bundle move-in and move-out cleans for extra savings. Just ask—we’re flexible like that.


Why Choose The CoBuilders?

We get it. There are lots of cleaning companies out there. But here’s what makes The CoBuilders different:

✔ We show up on time (not “window between 8am–6pm”)

✔ We bring our own eco-friendly products

✔ We’re obsessed with details—like, we clean behind the fridge kind of obsessed

✔ We offer affordable, flexible packages with no long-term contracts

✔ We’re local, real people—not robots or “faceless apps”


Final Word: Let’s Take One Thing Off Your Moving Plate

You’ve got enough to do. Let us handle the cleaning so you can move with less stress—and a lot more confidence.
