Moving in Southern California? The Ultimate Cleaning Checklist to Secure Your Deposit

Professional move-out cleaning service in Southern California

Moving is stressful enough without having to worry about your security deposit. Whether you are leaving a condo in Warner Center or a rental home in Thousand Oaks, the difference between getting your full deposit back and losing it often comes down to one thing: cleanliness.

At Maid VIP, we specialize in Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning. We know exactly what landlords and property managers look for during the final inspection.

The "Deposit-Back" Cleaning Checklist

Standard cleaning isn't enough. To pass inspection, you need to tackle the hidden grime. Here are the top 3 areas tenants often miss (but landlords always check):

1. Inside Appliances

Wiping the front isn't enough. You need to degrease the inside of the oven, scrub the stove drip pans, and sanitize the interior of the refrigerator (including drawers). This is standard in our move-out packages.

2. Inside Cabinets & Drawers

Crumbs and dust hide in the corners of empty cupboards. We vacuum and damp-wipe the inside of every cabinet in the kitchen and bathroom to ensure it's fresh for the next resident.

3. Baseboards & Door Frames

Scuff marks and dust accumulation on baseboards are a dead giveaway of a "quick" clean. Hand-washing these areas makes the entire home feel newer and brighter.

Don't Have Time to Scrub?

Let us handle the dirty work. Our vetted, insured professionals can turn a multi-day cleaning job into a few hours of work, letting you focus on your new home.
