Five things that cost renters their deposit
Cleaning before the movers finish
Furniture on the way out scuffs walls and drops dust. Book the clean for after the truck leaves — even a few hours later is fine.
Skipping inside the oven
This is the single most commonly flagged item on Austin move-out inspections. It's included in every move-out clean we do.
Forgetting the balcony
Austin complexes inspect balconies. Leaves, cobwebs, and grill grease all get flagged.
Leaving the trash
Bags left by the door count as an unclean unit at most Austin properties. We take everything to the compactor.
Assuming carpet cleaning is included
Many Austin leases require professional carpet steam cleaning with a receipt. We vacuum thoroughly and can line up a partner for the steam clean.
Questions people ask
+How much is apartment move-out cleaning in Austin?
A studio runs $207, a 1 bed / 1 bath $262, and a 2 bed / 2 bath $378. Prices are flat and assume the unit is empty.
+Will this get my security deposit back?
Our checklist is built around what Austin property managers actually inspect. If they flag a cleaning issue, we come back within 48 hours at no charge to fix it.
+How long does it take?
About three hours for a studio or one-bedroom, four to six for a two- or three-bedroom. We can send two cleaners so it still finishes in one visit.
+Can you clean the same day my lease ends?
Yes. Same-day and next-day slots are common. Book online and pick the first window after your movers are out.
+Do you clean the walls?
We spot-clean marks, scuffs, and fingerprints. Holes and repainting are landlord repairs, not cleaning.
+What if my building needs proof of insurance?
We carry liability insurance and can send a certificate to your leasing office before the visit.
+Do I need to be there?
No. Leave a code or a key at the leasing office. We text a full photo report when the unit is finished.
