Organise cleaning and move-out cleaning around your move

Move-out cleaning in Germany: define the scope and handover date and compare current platforms for one-off cleaning.

01

When is cleaning useful?

It saves the most time when the old home must be finished while you are already moving into the new one.

  • Cleaning the empty old home
  • One-off cleaning before moving into the new home
  • Windows/glass as an extra service
  • Kitchen, oven or fridge only where agreed
  • Several cleaners if the time window is tight

02

What should you define when booking?

“Clean the flat” is too vague. Define the job as precisely as possible.

  • Floor area and rooms
  • Empty or furnished
  • Are windows included?
  • Kitchen, appliances and bathrooms
  • Who supplies cleaning products/equipment?
  • Completion before key handover

03

How should providers be compared?

Availability and a clear scope matter as much as price.

  • One-off booking available
  • Hourly or fixed model
  • Reviews and profiles
  • Insurance/damage handling
  • Cancellation/rescheduling
  • Invoice and payment method
