Moving Into or Out of an Ellisville Home
Families move to Ellisville for the schools, the parks, and the quieter streets, and they often move within West County as the kids grow. Each move leaves behind a house that looks clean until the last box is gone. Then you see the outline of the bookcase on the carpet, dust on top of the door trim, and a sticky film under the stove.
Our move cleanings are built for that moment. With the rooms empty, the team works top to bottom through every room, closet, bathroom, and the kitchen. Sellers book us before closing, renters before handing in keys, and buyers before unpacking a single dish. Booking both homes in the same week is common. Once you are settled, if you would like regular help, our Ellisville house cleaning page explains ongoing service. Call as soon as your dates are set, since summer and month-end slots go first, and we will keep your date flexible as plans change.

What We Clean in an Empty Ellisville Home
Move cleanings cover the whole house while it is empty, so nothing is in the way. Here is what both move-in and move-out visits include, with the appliance note below.
On a move-out cleaning, the inside of the oven and fridge are included. On a move-in cleaning, they are available as an add-on when you schedule. Not moving, just overdue for a reset? Our deep cleaning is designed for occupied homes.

When Ellisville Movers Call Us
Upsizing within West County
Growing families often move from a starter home to a bigger house nearby. We clean the old place for the buyers and the new one before your furniture arrives.
Getting ready to list
After the furniture is out, the house shows every scuff and dust line. A move-out cleaning before the final walk-through leaves a good impression on the buyers.
Renters handing back keys
Rental homes in Ellisville get inspected closely. Our move-out cleaning covers appliance interiors, bathrooms, and floors, giving you a stronger case for a full deposit.
New owners moving in
You want to put clothes in closets and dishes on shelves you know are clean. A move-in cleaning before the truck shows up gives you that peace of mind.
Move Cleanings in Ellisville Neighborhoods
Empty homes in Ellisville tend to have plenty of closets, a full basement, and a kitchen opening onto a deck or patio. In Bluebird Meadows and Strecker Woods, many houses have carpeted bedrooms upstairs that show traffic patterns once the furniture is gone, while the split-levels around Forest Hills add extra stairs to clean. We plan timing based on your floor plan, and we include a finished basement if you ask.
Since many moves here go just a few miles, we often clean both houses for the same family. We serve Ellisville, Ballwin, Manchester, and Wildwood, so it is easy to coordinate both ends of a West County move. Let us know about any appliances staying behind, and we will clean them along with the rest of the house. A basement refrigerator or a washer and dryer left for the buyers is a common one.

Ellisville Clients on Moving Day Cleanings
Danielle and Liann were wonderful. I needed help after a move into a new home and an unforseen illness. They cleaned everything so thoroughly and were so pleasant and friendly. I highly recommend this company. Also, Susie whom I spoke to on the phone, was so helpful and went out of her way to accommodate my needs.

We had Danielle and Faith come in for a moving clean and couldn’t be more happy with the result. They got the place looking brand new with high attention to detail. They worked magic on the problem areas in the home, we’re professional, prompt, thorough, and friendly. They made the experience so lovely we’re looking into monthly recurring cleans with TL&AB! We’ll be recommending them to everyone.

Ellisville Move-In and Move-Out Cleaning FAQs
Yes, and it is one of the most common requests we get. Many families book a move-in cleaning for the new house and a move-out cleaning for the old one within a few days. Give us both dates and we will schedule them in the order that makes sense for your move.
Yes. Every move-out cleaning includes the inside and outside of the oven, fridge, and microwave. For move-ins, we always clean inside the microwave, and you can add the oven and fridge interiors at booking. Please empty the fridge and unplug any appliance you want left off before the team arrives.
We vacuum all carpeted areas thoroughly, which helps lift surface dirt and makes rooms look much fresher. Deep traffic lines and stains usually need professional carpet cleaning, which we do not offer. If you are scheduling a carpet cleaner, book them after our visit so the carpets are the last step.
If the basement is finished, we can include it in the move cleaning, from baseboards and floors to any lower-level bathroom. Unfinished storage areas are usually outside the service. Tell us about the space when you call so we can include the time in your estimate.
It happens often. Let us know as soon as you can, and we will push our arrival back or move the cleaning to the next morning. We plan some flexibility into move dates for exactly this reason, especially at the end of the month, when moving companies are stretched thin and delays are common.
You can start with an instant online estimate, then the office confirms dates and any details. Our office hours are Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm. Calling is often easiest for move cleanings, since dates and access can change during the process, and the office can explain options as they come up.
No. Many clients have already left town or are busy at the new house. Leave a key, lockbox code, or have your agent coordinate access. Our team members are background-checked, bonded, and insured, and we will let you know when the visit is done so you can plan your final walk-through.
Yes. Our 100% Free Up Your Time guarantee applies to move cleanings too. If something was missed, tell us and we will return within 48 hours to make it right, as long as the home is still accessible. Reach out quickly, since keys often change hands soon after.
