What does a move-out cleaning include?
An empty home shows everything. A move-out cleaning resets it for whoever comes next: a landlord checking the deposit, a buyer doing a final walk, or the next family carrying in boxes.
The photos on this page are from real move-out jobs: empty kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms after the team finished, and a laundry hookup corner before and after. Your scope is confirmed at the walkthrough, and it typically covers:
- Every room top to bottom, with the dust taken out rather than moved around
- Kitchen: counters, cabinet fronts and interiors, sink, and the appliances you want included
- Bathrooms: showers, tubs, toilets, sinks, mirrors and floors
- Closets, shelving and laundry hookups
- All floors vacuumed and mopped, and the garage on request
How much does a move-out cleaning cost?
Kat lists a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom move-out clean at $350. Your price can be lower or higher depending on size, condition, and whether you add the oven, the refrigerator or the garage. She confirms it in person before you commit to anything, and it is a flat rate, not an hourly bill.
Oven deep cleaning is $50, $75 or $100. Refrigerator deep cleaning is $50 or $75. Landlords open both at a checkout, so both prices are published.
Selling a home? A clean house photographs better.
Kat’s team has reset homes going on the market in Las Cruces and in Arrey. The Arrey home had been sitting empty for a while. In her words, getting the dust out and freshening up the home helped bring it to life.
If you are an agent or a property manager with repeat work, tell Kat at the first walkthrough so she knows to expect more from you. In September 2026 her crews finished two move-out cleanings in a single day, on top of the regular schedule.
How far ahead should you book?
As soon as you know your date. Kat is usually booked about two weeks out, and end-of-month dates tend to fill first. Call or text (575) 650-2534 with your move date and she will tell you straight whether she can make it.

Questions about move-out cleaning
Does the home need to be empty for a move-out cleaning?
Empty is best. The team can reach every surface, and the result is what a landlord or buyer expects to see. If a few items are staying, mention them at the walkthrough.
Will a move-out cleaning get my deposit back?
No cleaner can promise what a landlord will decide. What Kat can do is clean the home to a standard you would be glad to hand over, and tell you in advance about anything a cleaning cannot fix.
Do you clean inside ovens and refrigerators on a move-out?
Yes, as add-ons with published prices. An oven deep cleaning is $50, $75 or $100, and a refrigerator deep cleaning is $50 or $75, depending on size and condition.
Do you do move-out cleaning near Fort Bliss?
Yes. Kat’s teams serve El Paso, Fort Bliss, Horizon City, Socorro and the towns between El Paso and Las Cruces. A move-out with a housing inspection has a fixed date, so give Kat that date when you request the quote.
