Move-In & Move-Out Cleaning in Lexington, KY
Vacant-home cleaning for Lexington moves, from the insides of cabinets and closets to the fridge, microwave and floor edges.
Hand Over the Keys, or Unpack, With Everything Already Clean
Move-out cleaning in Lexington, KY and move-in cleaning share one advantage: the rooms are empty. With no couch against the wall and nothing stacked in the pantry, we can reach the shelves, drawers, closet floors and appliance interiors that never get cleaned while someone lives there. That is why we schedule it as a separate service instead of a regular visit stretched longer.
Lexington is a city that moves a lot. Leases turn over every summer, University of Kentucky students and families arrive each August, and buyers close on homes year-round from Hamburg to Masterson Station. We clean single-family houses, townhomes, condos and apartments, and we take on rental turnovers for landlords and property managers as well.

Timing Your Move Clean in Lexington
Leaving a home
Schedule us once the moving truck is loaded and the rooms are bare, ideally the day before your landlord walkthrough or closing. That way nothing blocks a cabinet, closet or baseboard.
Arriving at a new one
Have us in before the boxes come off the truck. Empty kitchens and bathrooms clean quickly and thoroughly, and you unpack into a sanitized space.
Listing a house first
Planning to sell your Lexington home? Start with a deep cleaning before listing photos, then add a few temporary cleans while showings are underway.
Summer is peak season
From mid-July through August, lease turnovers and the start of the UK fall semester fill our calendar fast. Two to three weeks of notice gives you the best shot at your preferred day.
Moving into a small space? Our Lexington apartment cleaning page explains how we handle condos and units. And once you are settled, many new clients keep the house in shape with recurring house cleaning.
How Move Cleaning Is Priced in Lexington
We quote every move clean on its own, since a one-bedroom unit near campus and a five-bedroom house in Hartland are far apart in scope. Your price is set before we arrive.
- Size: number of bedrooms and bathrooms and finished square footage
- Condition: how the previous occupants left things, pet hair and the state of the oven, fridge and showers
- Add-ons: interior windows or anything else you want included
