What this involves

A move-out cleaning is one of the few cleaning jobs where the stakes are real. Miss a spot your landlord cares about and it comes out of your deposit. Magic Castle Cleaning handles move-out and move-in cleaning across Salt Lake County, and we know exactly what landlords and property managers look for because we've cleaned hundreds of vacated units. Every appliance, every cabinet interior, every baseboard. Call (801) 618-2548 before your move-out date — we book up fast, especially toward the end of the month.

A thorough move-out clean typically runs 4 to 8 hours depending on the size and condition of the property. A studio apartment that was kept tidy is a different job than a four-bedroom that hasn't had a deep clean in two years. What drives cost is square footage, the number of bathrooms, appliance condition, and how long it's been since the last thorough cleaning. We don't publish flat rates because quoting blindly isn't honest — every home is different. Contact Magic Castle Cleaning for an accurate estimate.

What's Included

Every Room, Every Surface — Nothing Skipped

This is a full-property clean, not a tidy-up. Here's what we cover.

  1. 01

    Kitchen — Appliances and Cabinets

    Oven interior, stovetop, refrigerator inside and out, microwave, dishwasher door seal, cabinet interiors and exteriors, countertops, backsplash, and sink. These are the spots that kill deposits.

  2. 02

    Bathrooms — Fixtures and Tile

    Toilet bowl, tank, and base. Tub, shower walls, and grout lines. Vanity, mirror, and all fixtures. We get into the corners that a standard wipe-down misses.

  3. 03

    All Rooms — Floors, Walls, and Surfaces

    Vacuuming and mopping all floors. Baseboards, window sills, light switches, door frames, and ceiling fan blades. Dusting throughout including vents and blinds.

  4. 04

    Inside Closets and Storage Areas

    Closet shelving, rods, and floors. Any built-in storage wiped down inside and out. These get missed constantly and landlords notice.

Our Process

How the Booking Process Works

Simple, straightforward, no surprises.

  1. Step01

    Call for a Free Quote

    Tell us the size of the property and its current condition. We'll give you an honest estimate — no guessing, no bait-and-switch when we arrive.

  2. Step02

    Book at Least One Week Out

    End-of-month slots fill fast in Salt Lake County. The further out you book, the more flexibility you have on timing. We're available Monday through Friday 8am to 8pm, and weekends too.

  3. Step03

    We Clean, You Move

    You don't need to be there. Arrange access and we handle the rest. If anything isn't right, contact us within 24 hours and we'll resolve it promptly.

Why It Matters

What Landlords Actually Inspect

Most tenants wipe the counters and vacuum the floors and think they're done. Landlords in Salt Lake County check the oven interior, the refrigerator coils, the inside of cabinet doors, the grout in the bathrooms, and the baseboard corners. Those are the things that get itemized on a deposit deduction letter. We've done enough of these to know exactly which areas get flagged. A deep cleaning at move-out isn't optional if you want your full deposit back — it's the cost of not losing a few hundred dollars over a dirty oven. Magic Castle Cleaning carries $2,000,000 in general liability insurance (Policy #p101.767.476.5). You're not hiring a random gig worker with a mop. You're hiring a local, insured business with 4.8 stars across 20 Google reviews and three consecutive Nextdoor Neighborhood Fave wins.

I was in the market for a biweekly cleaning and tried them out… super pleased! My place sparkles and they were happy to use my products even though they include theirs. I have several pets so I’m conscious of ingredients and also how dirty my place gets! Lol THANK YOU

Move-In and Move-Out Cleaning — Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a move-out clean and a standard cleaning?
A move-out clean is a full-property detail — cabinet interiors, appliance interiors, baseboard scrubbing, closet shelving, all of it. A standard recurring clean maintains a home that's already in good shape. If a property has been lived in for months or years without a deep clean, a standard visit won't cut it for a landlord inspection. This is a different scope of work, and we price it accordingly.
Do you clean inside the oven and refrigerator?
Yes, both. Oven interior and racks, refrigerator shelves and drawers inside and out. These two appliances are the most commonly flagged items on move-out inspection reports. We don't skip them. If your fridge has a water/ice dispenser, we clean that too.
How far in advance should I book a move-out cleaning?
At least one week, ideally two. End-of-month dates fill up across Salt Lake County because that's when most leases turn over. If your move-out date is the 28th through 31st of any month, book early. We can sometimes accommodate shorter notice, but we can't guarantee availability. Call (801) 618-2548 to check.
Can you clean the property if I've already moved all my furniture out?
An empty property is actually ideal for a move-out clean. No furniture means full access to floors, baseboards, and walls. We can clean around remaining furniture too if needed, but vacant units get the most thorough result. Just make sure access is arranged before your appointment.
What if the property has carpet — do you include carpet cleaning?
Carpet cleaning is available as an add-on to your move-out service. It's not included by default because not every property needs it — some carpets are in good shape and only need a thorough vacuum. If your carpets need a deeper clean, let us know when you call and we'll factor that into your quote.
What does the 24-hour satisfaction policy actually cover?
If you or your landlord identifies something we missed, contact us within 24 hours of the cleaning. We'll come back and take care of it. This isn't a workaround — we stand behind the work. We don't offer refunds in lieu of a return visit, but we do make it right. Issues reported after 24 hours are harder to attribute to our visit, which is why the window exists.

Call Before Your Move-Out Date — We Book Fast

Frequently asked questions

Do you clean inside the oven and refrigerator during a move-out clean?
Yes, both. Oven interior and racks, refrigerator shelves and drawers inside and out. These two appliances are the most commonly flagged items on move-out inspection reports. We include them as standard on every move-out job.
How far in advance should I book a move-out cleaning in Salt Lake County?
At least one week out, ideally two. End-of-month dates fill quickly because most leases in Salt Lake County turn over at the same time. If your move-out date falls between the 28th and 31st, book early. Call (801) 618-2548 to check current availability.
Can I leave during the cleaning? Do I need to be home?
You don't need to be there. Arrange access to the property — a key, a lockbox code, or coordination with a property manager — and we'll handle the rest. Our cleaners are insured and professional. If anything needs clarification mid-clean, we'll reach out.
What does the 24-hour satisfaction policy mean?
If your landlord finds something we missed, contact us within 24 hours and we'll return to address it. We don't offer cash-in-lieu of a return visit — we come back and fix it. Issues reported after 24 hours are harder to attribute to our clean, which is why the window is set there.
Is carpet cleaning included in the move-out clean price?
Carpet cleaning is an optional add-on, not included by default. Some carpets only need a thorough vacuum; others need a full extraction clean. Tell us the carpet condition when you call and we'll build that into your quote if it makes sense for your situation.
