The Best Move In Move Out Cleaning in Vancouver
Trusted Move Out Cleaning Vancouver
Since 2016, Cleaning4U has provided quality move out house cleaning and move in cleaning services for homeowners, offices, and commercial spaces in the Vancouver area. We value every positive review and each referral we get from clients.
Why partner with a move out cleaning in Vancouver?
Moving out is dirty work, and homes and commercial spaces are often left scuffed and dingy when the job is done. Whether you’re vacating a rental space or selling your property, buyers and landlords alike expect the space to be clean when you leave.
Move-Out Cleaning Built Around Your Landlord’s Inspection
In BC, your landlord and you fill in a condition inspection report when you move in and again when you move out, and your security deposit depends on how those two reports compare. Our move-out clean is planned around that walk-through: we clean the places landlords and property managers actually check, not just the surfaces that show.
The landlord’s checklist, and how we cover it:
- Kitchen cabinets and drawers, inside and out, plus the countertops and backsplash
- Appliances: exteriors of the stove, oven, range hood, fridge, microwave and dishwasher.
- Sinks, tubs, showers, glass doors and toilets, cleaned and sanitized
- Baseboards, light switches, doorknobs, doorframes and marks on walls
- Windowsills and window tracks in every room
- Closet fronts and interiors
- Floors vacuumed and mopped, with attention to corners
The full room-by-room list is further down this page, and our blog has the complete move-out cleaning checklist Vancouver landlords expect.
If your landlord finds something we missed
Our satisfaction guarantee covers it. Contact us within 24 hours of your clean and we will come back to address the issue at no additional cost where appropriate. Book your clean before the inspection, not after, so there is time for a return visit if one is needed.
Before the inspection
- Book the clean for after the last box is out, and before your move-out inspection.
- Keep the power and lights on for cleaning day.
- Take photos of the finished clean. They are useful if anything on the inspection report is disputed.
- Give your landlord your forwarding address in writing. Under BC rules, the 15 days your landlord has to return your deposit start from the later of the day the tenancy ends and the day they receive it.

Helpful Tips Before Your Move In
Move-Out Cleaning
Make your moving experience a positive one. Here are some move in and move out cleaning service tips to make your move in/move out cleaning experience a success:
Tip #1
One to two months before you move out, fix any broken fixtures.
Tip #2
If you’re hiring a moving company, pack everything into boxes. Movers will only take furniture and boxes, leaving behind anything, not in boxes.
Tip #3
Ensure your apartment is completely empty on the day of the scheduled cleaning. This allows our cleaning team to perform a thorough move-out cleaning without moving items.
Tip #4
Spot-clean your carpets with Cleaning4U to get out any tough stains.
Tip #5
Take steps to ensure that your home or office has electricity, lights, AC, or a heater on your scheduled cleaning day. This ensures the Cleaning4U house cleaners can see the dirt to clean it properly, have electricity for their vacuums, and work in a comfortable environment.
Tip #6
Take pictures of the finished move-out cleaning job. This serves as proof that your space is clean and well-maintained. You may need this for your landlord or leasing office.
Tip #7
Hire Cleaning4U to clean your new place prior to moving in. There’s nothing worse than moving into a grimy and unclean home. Start your new life clean. We can also help keep your new place clean with recurring cleanings such as weekly or bi-weekly services.
