Move-Out Cleaning Planner
Tell us about the place you are leaving and how many days you have. You get a room-by-room cleaning list, a supply list, and a timeline that starts the slow jobs early. No prices and no promises about your deposit: just a realistic plan.
Your move-out cleaning plan
How the planner works
The task list is built from the areas landlords and property managers most often check at move-out: inside appliances and cabinets, bathroom buildup, floors to the edges, and fixtures. Heavier condition moves the slow, product-dependent jobs (oven, soap scum) earlier so cleaners have time to work. The effort level compares jobs to each other; it is not a time or price estimate.
Washington law says a landlord cannot keep a deposit for wear resulting from ordinary use, and limits deductions for carpet cleaning to documented wear beyond that (RCW 59.18.280). Read what landlords can and cannot deduct and DIY vs. professional move-out cleaning.
