Moving is stressful enough without scrubbing an empty house on top of it. Prime Clean Solution’s move-in and move-out cleaning gives you one less thing to worry about, with a detailed, top-to-bottom clean of the empty home so you can hand over the keys, recover your deposit, or settle into a fresh start.
We work with renters trying to recover a full security deposit, homeowners preparing a property for sale or for new owners, landlords and property managers turning a unit between tenants, and Richmond-area realtors who need a listing show-ready. Because the home is empty, we can reach everything, inside cabinets, inside appliances, and every corner.
From apartments in Scott’s Addition and the Fan to family homes in Midlothian and Glen Allen, our move cleaning is built around the standards landlords and buyers expect. It is the most detailed clean we offer for transitions, and it is designed to leave nothing behind but a spotless space.
We treat every move clean like the high-stakes moment it is, because we know a deposit, a sale, or a first impression can ride on it. The home gets handed over exactly the way you would want to receive it yourself.
Why It Matters
Why move cleaning is its own service
A move clean is not just a regular clean of an empty house. It is held to a different standard, the standard of a landlord’s move-out inspection or a buyer’s first walkthrough. That means the details that are easy to overlook day to day become the whole point: the inside of every cabinet and drawer, the inside of the oven and refrigerator, the tops of baseboards, and the tracks of every window.
Because the home is empty, we can finally reach all of it. There is no furniture to work around and no belongings in the way, so we clean spaces that are normally impossible to fully access. That is exactly why an empty-home move clean is so much more thorough than even a deep clean of an occupied home.
For renters, that thoroughness is what stands between you and a withheld deposit. For sellers and realtors, it is what makes a home show beautifully and photograph well. And for landlords and property managers, it is a fast, consistent turnover that gets the next tenant in sooner. Different goals, same detailed clean.
Timing is everything with a move, and we plan around yours. Whether you are coordinating a closing, meeting a lease-end deadline, or staging a listing for photos, we build the clean into your schedule so it is one less thing pulling at your attention during an already hectic week. You focus on the move, and we will handle making the space spotless.

Pricing
Flat, upfront pricing
$289 to $600 per home
Move cleaning is priced by the size of the home and its condition. Larger homes and units with heavy buildup or many cabinets and bathrooms take more time. Whether the home is fully empty also affects the quote, since furniture and belongings add time.
