A Fresh Start For Your New Home

When you first walk into a new place, you want to see where your furniture will go, not the dust left on baseboards or crumbs in cabinets. Our move-in cleaning is designed to give you that fresh start, with a detailed approach that helps remove traces of previous occupants before you begin unpacking. We pay attention to surfaces you and your family will touch right away, such as counters, fixtures, and cabinet interiors.

Our team follows the Maid Right Signature Clean checklist during every visit. This checklist guides a top-to-bottom, room-by-room clean that promotes consistency across kitchens, bathrooms, living areas, and bedrooms. While every home is different, our cleaners use the checklist to stay organized and to help ensure that important details are not missed, especially in smaller areas that can be easily overlooked on a busy move day.

Health-Conscious Cleaning From Day One

Health and safety play a central role in how we prepare your new space. We use non-toxic, eco-friendly products instead of harsh chemicals, which can be especially important if you have children, pets, or allergy-sensitive family members. With MR Shield, our medical-grade disinfection system, we treat high-touch areas to help reduce germs on surfaces such as doorknobs, light switches, and appliance handles. Combined with HEPA filter vacuums that capture fine dust and particles, our process supports a cleaner, fresher environment from day one.

Move Out Cleaning That Helps You Close With Confidence

When you are moving out, you are often balancing final walkthroughs, movers, and deadlines from landlords or buyers. Our move-out cleaning is built to support that moment, so you can hand over a home that looks well cared for without trying to scrub every surface yourself. For many renters, a detailed cleaning can play an important role in meeting lease expectations and protecting part of their security deposit.

During move-out cleaning, our cleaners focus on removing built-up dust, grease, and everyday residue that becomes more visible once furniture and boxes are gone. Kitchens and bathrooms typically receive extra attention, since these spaces can influence how landlords, property managers, and new occupants feel about the home. Our team uses the Maid Right Signature Clean checklist as a roadmap, which helps them move through the property methodically instead of rushing from task to task.

Timing Your Move Out Cleaning

Timing is often tight on a move-out day, especially in larger buildings that manage multiple tenants at once. We work with you to schedule cleaning after movers finish their work and before photos, showings, or inspections whenever possible. Our goal is to leave the space looking move-in ready for the next person, while giving you one less thing to worry about as you close this chapter.

How Our Move Cleaning Process Works

Clear steps make any move easier, and cleaning is no different. When you contact Maid Right of Manhattan, we start by asking a few questions about your home and your move. These may include the size and layout of the property, whether it is currently furnished or empty, and any specific areas you want us to focus on. We also ask about building policies for vendors, such as front desk check-in or elevator reservations, so we can plan our arrival carefully.

Once we understand your needs, we schedule your appointment for a date and time that fits with your move plan. On the day of service, our team arrives with all the products and equipment needed for detailed move in cleaning or move out cleaning, including our advanced Maid Right Technics tools. HEPA filter vacuums help capture dust that is often stirred up during moves, and our color-coded microfiber cloths support hygiene by assigning different cloths to different areas, such as bathrooms and kitchens.

What To Expect On Cleaning Day

After a brief walkthrough, we begin cleaning according to the Maid Right Signature Clean checklist. This checklist helps our cleaners work efficiently and consistently, so each room receives attention without unnecessary backtracking. When the work is complete, we perform a final look around the property to confirm that the requested areas have been addressed. If you are on-site, we can review key spaces with you so you feel comfortable before we leave.

Our teams are thoroughly trained, insured, and bonded, and they are accustomed to working in buildings with doormen, concierges, and management offices. We respect building rules about service entrances, sign-in procedures, and quiet hours, and we plan our work around those requirements. Throughout the process, our goal is to keep communication clear and straightforward, so you always know what to expect from our side.

Why Upper East Side Residents Choose Maid Right

Many cleaning companies can dust and mop, but our clients look for more than a basic surface clean when they move. Residents in this area often want a detailed, health-conscious cleaning that supports both comfort and peace of mind, especially in homes with shared hallways and elevators. That is why we built our approach around three core programs that work together during every visit.

The Maid Right Signature Clean program provides a structured checklist that guides our teams through each move cleaning. It helps us keep track of the many small details in kitchens, bathrooms, and living spaces, particularly once the distractions of everyday furniture and decor are removed. MR Shield, our medical-grade disinfection system, is then used in targeted areas to help reduce germs on high-touch surfaces that matter most as people move in and out of the home.

Alongside these systems, Maid Right Technics combines tools like HEPA filter vacuums and color-coded microfiber cloths to support both cleanliness and indoor air quality. Our non-toxic, eco-friendly products allow us to clean thoroughly without leaving behind strong chemical odors or residues. We stand behind our work with a satisfaction guarantee. If you let us know about missed details within a set 24-hour window, we work to correct the issue within 48 hours, so you are not left feeling that concerns went unheard.

For many clients, move day is just the start of life in a new home. If you decide you would like ongoing help, we can arrange recurring cleanings and, when possible, match you with the same cleaners you met during your move-in service. This continuity can make it easier to maintain the level of cleanliness that feels right for you, long after the boxes are gone.

Planning Your Cleaning Around An Upper East Side Move

Moves in this part of New York often involve more than just trucks and boxes. Many co-op and condo buildings require residents to reserve service elevators, schedule moves within specific time windows, and provide certificates of insurance for any vendors entering the property. Our team is accustomed to working within these guidelines, and we work with you to understand building expectations before the day of your appointment.

When you reach out to schedule move out cleaning, Upper East Side residents often ask when to book cleaning relative to their movers. In most cases, it is helpful to arrange cleaning after the last box has left the space or just before you begin unpacking in a new home. This approach helps our team reach areas that are usually blocked by furniture and allows us to clean more efficiently, which can be especially important when buildings limit the hours that vendors can be on-site.

Coordinating With Your Building

Different buildings may have different access points for service providers, such as separate entrances or loading areas on certain avenues. We ask you to share any details you receive from the management office, including where our team should check in, any elevator policies, and whether there are preferred times for service. Our goal is to respect your building community and to help your move go smoothly by reducing avoidable delays.

If your move dates change or you face last-minute schedule adjustments, we encourage you to contact us as soon as possible. We strive to provide flexible scheduling so that your plans stay aligned with real-world changes. Together, we can review available options and find a time that works within building and personal constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does your move-in cleaning usually include?

Our move-in cleaning usually focuses on preparing your new home so you can begin unpacking into clean spaces. We use the Maid Right Signature Clean checklist as our guide, which covers key categories such as kitchen surfaces, bathroom fixtures, floors, and high-touch areas throughout the home. Within that framework, we adjust our work based on what you tell us matters most, such as cabinet interiors, appliances, or particular rooms. Since every property is different, we review your home’s layout and condition in advance, then explain what we plan to do so you know what to expect. If there are specific areas you want extra attention, you can share those when you book or during our pre-service conversation.

Can you work around my building’s move schedule and elevator rules?

Yes, we regularly work in buildings that have strict rules for service elevators, move times, and vendor access. During scheduling, we ask you to share what your management office requires, including any reserved time blocks, sign-in procedures at the front desk, and which entrance our team should use. This helps us plan our arrival, equipment transport, and cleaning sequence so we stay within your building’s guidelines. While we cannot change building policies, we can coordinate our work to fit within those rules as closely as possible. Clear communication upfront usually leads to a smoother experience for you, your building staff, and our cleaners.

Are your products safe for children, pets, and those with allergies?

We use non-toxic, eco-friendly products because we know many clients are concerned about what lingers on surfaces after cleaning. This approach is designed to be gentler for homes with children, pets, or anyone sensitive to strong chemical scents. Our HEPA filter vacuums help capture fine dust and particles that can affect indoor air, which is especially helpful during a move when items are constantly being moved around. If you have specific sensitivities or preferences, you can let us know when booking, and we will discuss how our usual products align with your needs. Our goal is to create a clean home that feels comfortable to live in, not just one that looks tidy.

How far in advance should I book move-out cleaning?

We recommend booking move-out cleaning as soon as you have a confirmed move date and know when movers will be finished in your home. For some clients, this may be several weeks in advance, especially during busy moving seasons when schedules fill quickly. Planning early gives you more flexibility to secure a time that fits between your movers, final walkthrough, and any building deadlines for turning in keys. If your timeline is shorter, you can still reach out, and we will review current availability and work with you to find a practical option. The more notice we receive, the easier it usually is to align our cleaning visit with your overall move plan.

What if I notice something after your team leaves?

If you notice an area that seems to have been missed, we want to hear from you. Maid Right of Manhattan backs move cleaning with a satisfaction guarantee that asks you to let us know about concerns within 24 hours of service. When you contact us within that window, our goal is to correct the issue within 48 hours, subject to scheduling and access. This process helps us address your concerns directly and also supports ongoing training for our teams. We view feedback as an important part of delivering consistent, high-quality service over time.

Do I need to be home during the cleaning appointment?

You do not always need to be home during move cleaning, although some clients prefer to be present for the initial walkthrough. We can work with different access arrangements, such as meeting you at the property, coordinating with a doorman or concierge, or using a lockbox system that you provide. Because every building in this area has its own policies, we ask that you confirm what is allowed and share those details with us in advance. Our cleaners are insured and bonded, and they follow procedures designed to respect your property and your building community. We will review options during scheduling so you can choose the approach that feels most comfortable for you.

Can I keep the same team for ongoing cleanings after I move in?

Many clients appreciate seeing familiar faces after move day, and we work to provide that continuity whenever possible. If you decide to schedule recurring cleanings once you are settled, you can request to have the same cleaners who handled your move-in service. Scheduling and staffing can vary, so we cannot promise the exact same team every time, but we make every reasonable effort to honor these requests. Having a consistent team often makes communication easier and helps our cleaners understand your home and preferences over time. You can discuss ongoing service during your move-in appointment or when you contact us for a quote.
