Moving House Cleaning Checklist

This is an example checklist of what we can do for our end of tenancy cleaning service. As each moving out or moving in clean is unique you may need to go over what you'd like cleaned before we start. Our online quote system expects a property to be empty of furniture and personal belongings. Additional price may apply if furniture present.
