Moving is stressful enough—between packing boxes, scheduling movers, and updating your address, cleaning is often the last thing you want to think about. But whether you’re a renter hoping to get your full security deposit back or a landlord preparing your unit for new tenants, a thorough move-out clean is non-negotiable.

To make the process easier, we’ve put together The Essential Move-Out Cleaning Checklist tailored for NJ and NY renters and landlords.
