Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning

Moving is stressful enough. We hand the home over clean enough to pass inspection: inside every cabinet, drawer, and closet, inside the oven and fridge, interior windows, baseboards, and a full kitchen and bath detail. Landlords and realtors love it because the checklist is built to get deposits back. A walk-through with a flashlight won't turn up a thing, and neither would your Mother-in-Law.

What humid, coastal climates do to a home

Good to know

Answers before your Mother-in-Law asks

What is the Mother-in-Law Test?
The Mother-in-Law Test™ is the cleanliness standard every MIL Cleaners visit is held to — the bar a sharp-eyed mother-in-law sets when she runs a finger along the shelf. No grit in the shower track, no fingerprints on the stainless fridge, baseboards you can run a finger along, dusted fan blades. If anything you report within 24 hours wouldn't pass the Test, we re-clean that area free.
How does the instant price work?
Tell us your home size, the type of clean, and how often you'd like us. The calculator shows a flat-rate price right on the page, no callback or in-home estimate required. For a home in normal, lived-in condition, that price is what you pay. No hidden fees, no surprises on the invoice. The rare home that needs heavy extra work first gets a revised price you approve before we start, and nothing gets added after.
Are your cleaners background-checked and insured?
Yes. Every cleaner is background-checked (state and federal), interviewed in person, and trained to our checklist before they ever set foot in your home. That's the same standard you'd want before you handed someone a key. MIL Cleaners is fully licensed, bonded, and insured, and a Certificate of Insurance is available on request.
What is the Mother-in-Law Guarantee?
Every clean has to pass the Mother-in-Law Test™, the standard a sharp-eyed Mother-in-Law would hold it to. If something falls short, tell us within 24 hours and we'll come back and re-clean that area free. It's in writing. If the re-clean still isn't right, we credit or refund that visit. Your call.
Do I need to be home during the cleaning?
Not at all. Most clients give us secure entry instructions when they book. Your card stays securely on file and is only charged after the service is complete, so there's nothing to hand over in person. Come home to a house that looks like your Mother-in-Law is already on her way over.
Do you bring your own supplies and products?
Yes, we bring everything. Our products are non-toxic and pet- and family-safe by default, at no extra charge. If you'd rather we use specific products you keep under the sink, just tell us and we will.

Pass the Mother-in-Law Test™ on the first try

A flat rate up front. The same crew every visit. And if your Mother-in-Law would run a finger and frown, we re-clean it free within 24 hours.
