Move-In & Move-Out Cleaning in San Francisco

Whether you're leaving an SF rental and need your deposit back, or arriving at a new place and want a clean start before you unpack — Amiga uses the same inspection-ready checklist: inside cabinets, window tracks, baseboards. 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.

A 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 San Francisco

San Francisco has one of the most competitive rental markets in the country. With rents among the highest in the US, deposit recovery matters — most SF landlords and property managers do thorough walkthroughs and expect inspection-ready results. Inside cabinets, ceiling fans, and inside refrigerator are bundled by default for move-out because these are what SF landlords typically check.

Tenant turnover in SF is constant — tech hiring cycles, contract roles, and lease timing mean move cleans happen year-round. Add oven and interior windows in the quote flow if your landlord or lease specifically requires them.

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 unit needs it.

San Francisco 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. We text when we arrive and when we finish. If your building requires elevator scheduling for move-out day, coordinate that in advance. Street parking in SF is metered most of the day; factor in arrival buffer for your address.

"Booked a move-in clean for our SoMa apartment before the furniture arrived. The team was professional, coordinated access through the building properly, and left the place spotless. Great start."

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between move-in and move-out cleaning in San Francisco?

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 (SF 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 San Francisco cost?

Oven and interior windows are available as add-ons.

What if my San Francisco landlord says you missed something?

Text us within 24 hours with specifics — ideally a photo. We'll send someone back at no charge to fix items from our checklist. This applies to checklist items, not new damage or messes that occurred after we left.

Do I need to be present during the clean?

Not at all. Most move cleans happen while you're elsewhere. Provide a key or lockbox code 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 with your SF landlord.
