Overview
Move into the South End with every corner clean
South End move-ins are mostly rowhouse units, and Victorian rowhouses have storage in unexpected places: deep closets under stairs, built-in cabinets beside mantels, pantries off retrofitted kitchens. All of it has been used for a century and cleaned quickly between tenants. A move-in clean is the one chance to reset it while the unit is empty, and our South End teams know where to look in a bowfront floor plan.
The service is a deep clean plus every interior: cabinets and drawers washed inside and out, closet shelves and rods wiped, bathrooms scrubbed to the grout, and floors dry-mopped and damp-passed edge to edge. Marble gets pH-neutral care, plaster is dusted with soft brushes, and pocket door tracks are cleaned. SoWa lofts and Ink Block condos get streak-free glass and stone care after our coordinators handle building paperwork.
Timing follows the first-of-month rental cycle and the neighborhood's active sales market. Buyers book for the day after closing; renters book between a departing tenant and their movers. We collect keys from agents, concierges, and lockboxes. Weekend and Sunday move-in cleans are common here and we schedule seven days a week. A one-bedroom takes our team about three hours. Pricing is quoted by unit size and condition and includes cabinet and closet interiors; oven and fridge interiors are optional add-ons.

When to book
Timing a move-in clean in South End
Between keys and the moving truck
The ideal slot. We clean the empty unit in the morning and your movers arrive after. We coordinate with agents and managers to make it work.
After a landlord turnover clean
Many turnover cleans are a quick wipe. If the cabinet shelves and closets were skipped, we finish before you fill them, and the oven and fridge can be added.
New construction or renovation
Contractors leave fine dust in every cabinet. A move-in clean after the punch list keeps it off your dishes.
After closing on a purchase
Book for the day after closing and move in the following weekend to a home that feels like yours.

Reviews
What neighbors say after the first visit
“Our brownstone has original wood floors and a lot of trim. They used the right products and got into every groove of the wainscoting. I have already booked them monthly.”
“Two people arrive every other Thursday, work through the whole house in about two hours, and the kitchen looks the way it did the day we moved in. I have stopped thinking about cleaning entirely.”
“My building has strict elevator rules and they handled the check-in with the concierge without me being there. Floor-to-ceiling windows spotless, no streaks. That alone was worth it.”
