Move-Out Cleaning Checklist for Halifax Renters

Start with empty rooms

Move-out cleaning is easiest after furniture and boxes are gone. Cleaners can work faster when floors, closets, and cabinets are accessible.

If movers and cleaners are booked the same day, schedule cleaning after the last load leaves.

Appliances and bathrooms take the most time

Ovens, fridges, range hoods, shower glass, grout, toilets, and vanities usually drive quote size.

Mention whether appliance interiors are included. That prevents surprise quote changes.

Document the handoff

After cleaning, take photos of floors, appliances, bathrooms, windows, and entryways.

If you are renting, keep the photos with your move-out messages and inspection notes.

Before you request a quote

• Inside fridge and freezer
• Inside oven and range hood
