Top Move In Cleaning related questions

Yes, we can help with both of your move-in or move-out cleaning tasks. Once you've removed and disassembled your furniture and appliances, Taskers can extensively clean your old apartment, just like when you first moved in. Afterwards, they can also sanitise your new place and prepare them for occupancy. To make the entire moving in experience smooth and easy, we can also assist you with moving all your household items to your new location.

It depends on the scope of the services needed. Cleaning furniture and upholstery, as well as single rooms, kitchens, and bathrooms, should only take a few hours. Deep cleaning the entire house, however, might take a little longer as it typically needs a whole day to complete. If you want a more accurate time frame, you can ask your cleaner before the service starts so you can set your expectations accordingly.

Before your cleaner arrives, we recommend setting aside all your fragile and breakable items like vases, mirrors, photo frames, and wall decor. You might also want to secure any valuable items, so they are less likely to be accidentally thrown away during the cleaning service. It is also a good idea to keep or lock your pets in a separate room, especially if they are uncomfortable with strangers in the house.

You can, but it's not necessary. Cleaners can bring the required cleaning tools and supplies for the service. They'll likely use a vacuum cleaner, dusters, cleaning brushes, broom, mops, and dustpans. If you have any of these on hand or if you prefer to use your own equipment, you can simply lend them to your cleaner. For cleaning detergents and solvents, you can also ask them to drop by the local store along the way if you don't have any.

Yes! If you urgently need a cleaner who can come and clean your place right away, hiring through Airtasker is your best call. You can skip calling multiple cleaning companies or searching online to look for a move-in cleaning service near you. Just put up a task on our platform, and we'll quickly connect you with nearby cleaning experts who can assist you as soon as needed.

Yes! Through our platform, you'll find plenty of expert handymen who can fix broken or damaged furniture that may have occurred while moving your items. They can repair and restore your kitchen drawers and cabinets, window and door frames, chairs and sofas, beds, and more. If you need to replace your furniture, there are also dedicated Taskers who can deliver your furniture to your location and assemble them as well.

What do move-in cleaning services include?

Move-in house cleaning services are done by experienced cleaners who are familiar with all sorts of domestic cleaning tasks. Depending on your needs, they can do some light sweeping, wiping, and mopping. They can also help you clean kitchen appliances, bathroom fixtures, carpets, and upholstery, among others. Whether you're looking for a cleaner before or after you've moved in, we can lend a hand. Here's what you can expect:

Kitchen cleaning

Move-in cleaners can help disinfect your table, benchtops, kitchen appliances, and wares. When cleaning cooking appliances and fridges, they either make their cleaning solution using organic ingredients or scrub them down using marketed solvents. As for cabinets and other storage boxes, they usually remove the shelves and drawers and clean them individually.

In case you also need someone to install your gas stovetops and ovens upon moving in, feel free to book a gas fitting service along with your cleaning service so you can tick off more things on your to-do list!

Bathroom cleaning

Before or after you've moved in, your cleaner can also disinfect every nook and cranny of your new bathroom–from toilets, showers, and taps all the way to your tiles, mirrors, and your flooring. You can even request them to utilise antibacterial sprays and products to get rid of any unwanted germs and bacteria that might be lingering around your bathroom.

If your new home doesn't have a proper piping connection just yet, we can connect you with a range of plumbers who can install it for you.

Carpet cleaning

With all the chaos that comes with moving furniture and appliances, some owners tend to forget the importance of having their carpets cleaned. Your new carpets aren't always free of grime, which can be a bit risky if you have little kids who love to play and crawl on the floor. Skilled cleaners can do more than just a simple vacuuming. They also know the best way to eliminate stains and dirt on your carpet and also disinfect them in the process.

Upholstery cleaning

Similar to carpets, it's best to clean and disinfect your upholstery before or after moving into your new property. Doing so can help remove harmful contaminants, moulds, and dust mites, which might aggravate allergies, asthma, and other respiratory problems. Cleaners can handle almost any fabrics, including regular cotton, linen, and wool. They also know the safest way to clean sensitive upholstery material such as leather and silk.

Need someone who can dispose of all the after-cleaning rubbish? Don't hesitate to book a clearance expert on our platform! This way, you won't have to worry about getting rid of broken and unwanted clutters on top of moving into your new place.

Pre-Move in Clean 2 bed 1 bath, 2 story. Mostly empty.

$200

Albion VIC, Australia

5th Dec 2025

I'm moving into a 2 story apartment, it's empty beside a few small things. The place makes me itchy and as I'm allergic to cats and dogs, I think it previously had pets. Ideally I would like someone who will clean windows as well, and remove all curtains as I plan to replace them (but need to keep in storage.) Floors are faux wood floor boards so ideally steam cleaned floors. Walls are brick mostly so maybe a vacume run over it, and ground floor ceiling which is low. Only windows on ground floor to be cleaned if too difficult. Oven does NOT need cleaning BUT Exhaust fans are filled with grease and I'd like them cleaned. Thanks.

Diego was on time and listened to my instructions. He is humble and down to earth but not a professional cleaner. I had to show him how to remove soap scum from the shower. There was a cockroach in the middle of the living room that he just left there. I asked if he mopped and he said he did, I know he didn’t. He came with two plastic bags with a few items and cheap vacuum that he didn’t even use. Manage your expectations when you hire him.

Alexandria NSW, Australia

We are currently moving in to a new place and would like the unit to be cleaned prior. The place is empty besides a few boxes so it should be a fairly straightforward clean. We are wanting the floors and windows cleaned as well as the 2x bathrooms, study, kitchen and balcony + entryway. The bedrooms are getting the carpet ripped out so no need to clean the 2 bedrooms. Bit of short notice I do apologise, but can be either tomorrow 24th or Tuesday 25th the clean. Location is in Rosebery

Highly recommend, quick and efficient
