Let Us Handle the Cleaning While You Handle the Move
Moving means changing addresses, redirecting bills, switching utilities and packing every box you own. On top of that, the home you are leaving needs to be clean, whether that is to get your security deposit back or to help your house sell, and your new home needs to be ready for move-in day. That is where we come in.
Once the rooms are empty, our team cleans the home from top to bottom. Many leases ask for a broom-clean home, and others require a detailed checklist that covers everything from baseboards to the microwave. We clean to that standard and can follow your landlord’s or property manager’s checklist when you share it.

Move-Out Cleaning for Renters and Sellers, Move-In Cleaning for New Owners
For renters, a professional move-out clean is the simplest way to leave an apartment or rental home in the condition your lease expects. For sellers, it helps the house show well for buyers and the final walkthrough. For buyers and new renters, a move-in clean means you unpack into a home that has been cleaned for you, including the kitchen and bathrooms that the last occupants used.
We clean moves of every size across Richmond and the surrounding counties, from Fan rowhouses and downtown apartments to family homes in Chesterfield, Henrico and Hanover. Property managers and landlords also use us for turnover cleaning between tenants. Call as soon as you know your date; we do our best to fit move cleanings in, including last-minute requests when a team is available.

What Clients Say About Our Move In / Move Out Cleaning
Recent 5-star Google reviews from New Image Cleaning clients around Richmond.
Ileana and Tegan did a fantastic job with the deep clean “move in” clean on my new home! They were very thorough. In particularly, they got the stovetop and inside of the microwave much cleaner than I’ve been able to!
