Tips for Getting Your Apartment Ready for Moveout

debbie • Dec 23, 2019

Moving can be exciting. New floorplan, new neighbors, new community! But it can also be stressful. You’ve got to sort, pack, and unpack, and the cleaning-- sometimes it seems like it never ends. Thankfully, we’ve got some tips to make moving easier. It’s all about planning ahead, and knowing when to call in the professionals.

Declutter, and Start Packing

A few weeks before your move out date, go ahead and start decluttering. Separate items you intend to keep from items you intend to toss, sell, or donate, and start making piles. After all, it’s easier to move when there’s less to move. Pack by room whenever possible, and be sure to clearly label boxes to make unpacking easier.

Repair Minor Damage

Once decorations are off the walls and your space is somewhat cleared out, you can start assessing for minor damages. Attempt basic small repairs yourself whenever possible to avoid losing your security deposit. Patch small holes with spackle putty, touch up paint, and replace filters as needed. Pay close attention to move out procedures listed in your lease, including any cleaning, painting, or repair instructions provided by your landlord or property manager.

Hire a Professional Cleaning Service

While it might sound like cleaning your old empty space would be easy, there’s just so much to do. Baseboards, oven, bathrooms, ceiling fans, floors-- you’ve spent weeks sorting and packing, wouldn’t you rather be settling into your new home? Hiring a professional cleaning service for a move out clean is the best way to decrease your stress and make moving easier for everyone involved. It’s a great alternative to doing it yourself, and it can be surprisingly affordable.

Professional cleaners will follow your landlord’s move out instructions to the letter, and bring their own supplies, so you don’t have to worry about cleaning the refrigerator shelves and floor vents while also wondering which box has that thing you need. To help get the most return from any security deposit, don’t forget to take photos and provide receipts for cleaning service.
