Move-In & Move-Out Cleaning in Montara
Whether you're leaving a Montara rental and need your deposit back, or moving into a home above the state beach and want it truly clean before the boxes arrive — Amiga runs the same inspection-ready checklist: inside cabinets, window tracks, baseboards, and the sand-worn floor edges a year of beach living leaves behind. Choose the add-ons your situation needs.
Pricing
Price is calculated from your home size, number of bathrooms, scenario, and the add-ons you choose. Move-out usually prices a bit higher than move-in because the default scope is heavier. Use the quote tool for an exact number.
Walkthrough photos or video required before final booking confirmation.

Optional add-onA Note on Surface Limitations
We're honest about what cleaning can and can't do:
Watermarks and rings cannot be removed from countertops. Cabinet odors that have become ingrained may require multiple cleaning sessions. Our team will identify burnt grease, grout stains, and mineral buildup and let you know what additional treatment can address.
Hard water marks and calcium buildup on fixtures, shower doors, and tub surfaces may require multiple sessions to significantly reduce. Discoloration or finish deterioration on tubs and shower floors will still appear stained after cleaning — this reflects surface damage, not a missed step. We will flag stained grout and any caulk with underlying mold, and recommend replacement.
We do not move furniture over 10 lbs or appliances. We do not pack personal belongings or move valuables or electronic equipment. Homes with excessive clutter or hoarding conditions require a separate quote.
Move-In & Move-Out Cleaning in Montara
Montara turnover has a signature: a year or more of beach living, made visible the day the furniture leaves. Sand that migrated past the entry rug shows along floor edges and in closet corners, salt haze dulls the window glass, and if the home ran a wood stove through winter, ash dust marks the trim and shelves around it. None of it registers while you live there — all of it registers at the walkthrough.
Inside cabinets and ceiling fans are bundled by default for move-out because property managers check them. Add inside oven or interior windows in the quote flow if your lease or walkthrough requires them — interior windows earn their keep here, since salt haze on glass is the first thing daylight exposes in an empty room.
For move-in cleans, you're setting a baseline before your belongings arrive. Inside cabinets are an optional add-on for move-in — select them in the quote flow if the home needs it.
Montara logistics note
You don't need to be present — most move cleans happen while tenants are elsewhere. Provide a key or lockbox code at booking. If the home is on a steep hillside block or a beach-adjacent street that fills up on sunny days, include parking notes too, so the team isn't hunting for a spot during your turnover window.
Why Amiga in Montara
Move cleans are pass/fail — the walkthrough either clears or it doesn't. We run the same inspection-ready checklist every time, weighted toward what a beach-town rental shows when it's empty: floor edges and closet corners where sand collects, glass with salt haze, and the cabinet interiors landlords open first. That consistency is what protects your deposit.
Pricing is upfront. You pick move-in or move-out, add what your lease requires, and see the number before booking — no surprise line items after the work is done. When something falls outside the standard move scope, we tell you before we start.
Amiga is owner-operated, and we handle Montara turnover logistics directly: lockbox and key handoffs, steep hillside driveways, and beach-day street parking. You don't have to be there — we text on arrival and completion, with before/after photos on request.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between move-in and move-out cleaning in Montara?
The checklist family and quote flow are the same — window tracks, baseboards, closet floors, and more. For move-out, inside cabinets are bundled by default (landlords check them); for move-in, they're an optional add-on since you may not need them. Move-out usually prices a bit higher because the default scope is heavier.
How much does move-out cleaning in Montara cost?
Price depends on your home size and which add-ons you choose. Use the quote tool for an exact number. Inside cabinets, ceiling fans, and inside refrigerator are bundled by default for move-out. Optional add-ons include inside oven, interior windows, inside freezer, and more.
What does a Montara walkthrough tend to catch?
Beach-town wear: sand ground into floor edges and closet corners, salt haze on window glass, and — in homes with a wood stove — ash dust on nearby shelves and trim. Tenants stop noticing all three after a year of living with them; a landlord walking an empty home sees them immediately. Our move-out checklist targets exactly those spots.
Do I need to be present during the clean?
Not at all. Most move cleans happen while you're elsewhere. Provide a key, lockbox code, or entry instructions at booking. We text when we arrive and when we finish. Before/after photos are available on request with consent — useful if there's a deposit dispute.
Where do you park for move cleans in Montara?
Most Montara homes have driveway or street parking. Flag two things at booking if they apply: a steep or short hillside driveway east of Highway 1, or a beach-adjacent street that fills with visitor cars on sunny days. Either can cost the team time during your turnover window if we don't plan for it.
