Getting Your Property Ready for a Vacant Clean

What to sort out before the team arrives for a move-in or move-out clean.

← Back to Blog

A vacant clean gets the deepest possible result when the property is fully empty and easy to move around in. A little prep beforehand helps the team focus on the clean itself.

Clear out all furniture and belongings

Vacant cleans are priced and scheduled around an empty property — cupboards, floors and skirting boards can only be properly detailed once everything is out.

Make sure power and water are still connected

The team needs both to vacuum, run appliances and clean bathrooms and kitchens properly, so double-check utilities haven't been disconnected yet.

Point out any problem areas in advance

Stubborn stains, stickers on windows, or areas needing extra attention are easiest to deal with when flagged before the clean starts.

Arrange access

Confirm how the team will get in — keys, a lockbox or building access — especially if you won't be on site yourself.

  • Empty the property fully before the clean, where possible
  • Keep power and water connected on the day
  • Flag problem areas and confirm access ahead of time
