Owner pricing guide

Move-out cleaning quotes need room for detail work, condition, and surprises.

Use this page before pricing empty-home work where cabinets, appliances, baseboards, windows, trash, and heavy soil can change the job quickly. A move-out quote should name what is included before the customer compares it to a standard clean.

Pricing driverAppliance and cabinet interiors

Ovens, refrigerators, cabinets, drawers, and shelves are separate labor drivers and should not disappear inside a flat house-cleaning price.

Risk signalNo walkthrough

If you cannot inspect first, include a condition buffer and a clear change-order rule for heavy soil or trash.

Owner FAQ

Questions small cleaning business owners ask before quoting

Should a move-out cleaning quote be higher than a standard cleaning quote?

Usually yes. Move-out jobs often include empty cabinets, appliance interiors, baseboards, blinds, trash, and heavy buildup. A small owner should price those items as real labor instead of treating the job like a normal maintenance clean.

When should I add a condition or heavy-soil buffer?

Add a buffer when the customer mentions pets, long vacancy, grease, nicotine, excessive dust, trash left behind, or no recent professional cleaning. If you cannot inspect first, include a clear scope note and a change-order rule before booking.

What should I do after calculating the move-out price?

Save the quote in Jobs, add the exact included tasks, and set a follow-up date. That gives you a record of what was promised and lets Reports show whether move-out work is actually profitable for your business.
