Doing housework is the last thing on most people’s minds when relocating. That’s why most individuals who are moving to, from, or within San Francisco, CA, prefer to book a professional move-in and move-out cleaning.
However, when shopping for a cleaning service, many individuals come across various deep cleaning packages, and end up wondering how this service differs from a move-out/in cleaning. If this is your situation, you’ve come to the right place. We’ll discuss the 3 biggest differences between these two types of service to help you choose a service that best suits your needs and preferences. Read on!
What is the difference between a deep clean and a moving clean?
Here’s are 3 ways move-in/move-out cleanings differ from deep cleanings:
Difference #1 – Furniture vs. no furniture
The main difference between a deep clean and moving clean is done in a partially or completely empty house, while deep cleaning is performed while you still have furniture in your house.
And you know what this means? That’s right: a move-in/out clean usually doesn’t involve appliances. This holds true regardless of the kind of moving clean you want to schedule. Whether you’re moving into a lovely new home or leaving your old house behind, you’ll rarely have to worry about appliances because they will already be gone when moving out or you’ll add them later when moving in.
To further illustrate the difference between move-in/out cleaning and deep cleaning, let’s see how you normally approach the task in the kitchen, with all its countertops, cabinets, and other surfaces.
- Deep cleaning: Deep cleaning a kitchen generally includes scouring every appliance, such as the stove, inside and outside of the fridge, microwave, and dishwasher.
- Move-in/out cleaning: Move-in/out cleaning a kitchen is typically carried out in an empty or mostly empty kitchen, meaning there are no appliances to scrub.
Difference #2 – Duration
Another major difference between deep cleaning and move-in/out cleaning is that deep cleaning usually takes longer. Considering that you still live in the house when a professional deep-cleans your property, it’s no surprise the service lasts a few minutes (or hours) longer.
As for exactly how long your deep cleaning or move-in/out clean will take, you need to consider a number of factors:
- Size of the property: The larger the house, the longer the job will take.
- Layout: Some homes have intricate layouts, extending the duration of the service.
- Materials: If you have surfaces made of expensive materials (e.g., marble), professionals will take extra time to clean them without damaging the finish.
Difference #3 – Timing
You might think duration and timing are the same when discussing cleaning, but that’s not the case. The timing factor refers to when you typically schedule deep cleaning vs. move-in or move-out cleaning.
On the one hand, you only book a move clean when moving out of your old property and relocating to a new place. On the other hand, you normally have your home deep-cleaned a few times a year, depending on how many people live in the house.
