Move-In Cleaning · Los Angeles
Move-in cleaning on the Westside, done before you unpack
An empty unit is the only chance to clean it properly. Cabinet interiors, closet shelves, the floor beneath where the refrigerator will sit, the window tracks — all reachable now and effectively sealed once furniture lands. That matters more on the Westside than most people expect, because the previous tenant's turnaround here is often measured in days rather than weeks, and a quick landlord wipe-down is not the same thing.
The work varies with the building. New-build condos at Runway and Concert Park arrive with construction residue in vent covers and a film on unsealed surfaces from final touch-ups. Fox Hills towers and Mariners Village units in Marina del Rey need balcony slider tracks cleared of harbor grit before the door will run true. Older Purdue Avenue apartments need cabinet interiors and appliance seals scrubbed rather than wiped.
Timing is the hard part. Most Westside moves are built around an elevator reservation — a two or three hour window management gives you, once. We schedule the clean the day before that window wherever possible, file the vendor paperwork with the building in advance, and finish before the truck arrives. Mid-City Santa Monica and Century City moves get the same treatment.

Move-In Cleaning across Los Angeles
These neighborhood notes are unique to this exact city and service combination.
Runway, Playa Vista
New-build condos still carrying construction film in vent covers and on unsealed surfaces when the first tenant takes the keys.
Constellation Boulevard, Century City
High-rise moves run on a reserved freight elevator, so the clean has to finish before that window opens, never after.
Fox Hills, Culver City
Condo towers where a unit sits empty between owners and cabinet interiors need scrubbing rather than a surface wipe.
Mid-City, Santa Monica
Rent-controlled buildings with fast turnarounds; a single day between tenants means the empty-unit clean happens on a tight clock.
Purdue Avenue, West LA
Older apartments where appliance seals, cabinet corners, and window tracks hold the last tenant's residue long after they left.
Mariners Village, Marina del Rey
Harbor grit packs slider tracks until the doors bind; we clear and flush them before your furniture blocks the access.

Move-In Cleaning in Los Angeles: questions answered
How much does move-in cleaning cost in Los Angeles?
It falls in the published $200–$550+ range. Unit size and bathroom count set most of it, and appliance interiors add time — an oven the last tenant never cleaned is its own job. Empty units go faster than occupied ones, which usually works in your favor.
Where do you do move-in cleans?
Across the Westside: Playa Vista 90094, Century City 90067, Culver City 90230 and 90232, Santa Monica 90404, West LA 90025, Marina del Rey 90292, and Palms 90034, plus Venice, Mar Vista, Westwood, Brentwood, Beverly Hills, and West Hollywood. New-build condo towers and older rent-controlled buildings alike.
How long does it take?
Three to six hours for most units, longer for a house. Empty rooms speed the floor work but appliance interiors and cabinet insides slow it back down. We book the crew to finish inside your elevator window rather than around it.
Can you get in before I have keys?
Usually, with the landlord or building manager's authorization. Give us their contact when you book and we arrange access, vendor paperwork, and the elevator reservation directly with them. Many Westside property managers already hold our paperwork on file, which saves a day on a tight move schedule.
Who will be doing the work?
A background- and reference-checked team sized to the unit — two cleaners for an apartment, three or more for a house. If you go on to book recurring service afterward, we try to keep one of those cleaners on your account for continuity.
How far in advance should I book?
As soon as the move date is set. The first of the month and the end of August are the busiest windows on the Westside because so many leases turn together. Book online or call and text (323) 370-0898 for the quickest answer.
