Moving is no picnic. In addition to uprooting your entire life, updating your IDs, and making sure your loved ones, pets, and belongings get to your new place safely and comfortably, you also need to ensure your new house is as clean as possible before you bring in your furniture.
The most effective way to do this is by hiring a professional Royal Palm Beach move-in cleaning shortly before your move. Doing so not only spares you the frustration of having to clean before you can even get properly settled in, it also ensures the home your family is moving into is free of dangerous germs like COVID-19.
Read on to learn what goes into a typical move-in cleaning and whether you should do it yourself or book a professional cleaning.
How do I clean my house when moving in?
First, ask yourself this: do you have enough free time to perform a truly in-depth cleaning on both your old and new places before you move? And if not, will you have enough energy to properly clean your new home when you finally arrive there at the end of your big moving day?
For most people, the answer to these questions is no. They’re simply too preoccupied with packing their belongings, arranging transportation, getting their security deposit back from their previous landlord, and taking care of all the other details that go into their move to be able to devote the better part of a day to cleaning.
For this reason, the best way to ensure your new house is spotless before you settle in is to have it cleaned by a reputable maid service. This not only guarantees superb results, but also makes your move less stressful and provides you with additional free time you can use to take care of other stuff or just enjoy a relaxing stroll through the Earthday Park.
What is included in a move-in cleaning?
A move-in cleaning is basically a deep cleaning that’s performed on an unfurnished or mostly-unfurnished property. As such, it tends to be more extensive than a standard cleaning and provides cleaners with unrestricted access to the areas they’re cleaning.
