Why Clean and Clear Before You Move?

When you first moved in, you probably gave your landlord or leasing office a security deposit. That deposit is your money — but you only get it back if you leave the place in good shape. Landlords can charge you for cleaning, junk removal, and repairs if you leave behind a mess.

The good news? If you plan ahead and take care of a few simple things, you can avoid extra charges and get your full deposit back. It’s all about being organized, cleaning up properly, and making sure you don’t leave any junk behind.

Your Easy Move-Out Plan

1. Start Decluttering Early

Don’t wait until the week you’re moving out! Start going through your stuff about a month before you move. Make three piles:

• Keep: Things you’re taking to your new place.
  
• Donate: Things in good shape you don’t want anymore.
  
• It’s Time To Let Go: Broken, stained, or worn-out stuff.
  

Starting early gives you time to deal with everything without feeling rushed.

2. Focus on the Big Stuff

Heavy things like old couches, mattresses, broken desks, or worn-out chairs can cause problems. Most landlords won’t haul away big junk for free. It’s smart to schedule a junk removal service to pick up bulky items before you leave. Companies like We Kleen Clutter offer same-day junk removal across West Georgia, which is super handy when you’re on a tight schedule.

3. Deep Clean Everything

After your stuff is out, you need to clean the place — not just sweep the floor.

Here’s a quick checklist:

• Scrub kitchen counters and appliances
  
• Clean bathroom sinks, tubs, and toilets
  
• Wipe down window sills and baseboards
  
• Vacuum carpets and mop floors
  
• Patch up small nail holes if your landlord asks for it
  

If you’re not a big fan of cleaning, you can even hire a local cleaning company to do a final deep clean.

4. Don’t Forget Outdoor Areas

If your rental has a yard, balcony, or patio, make sure it’s clean too! Pick up trash, sweep off leaves, and get rid of any junk you might have left outside.

5. Schedule a Final Junk Pickup

Right before you hand over your keys, double-check each room for leftover junk. If you’ve still got a few random things, call a same-day junk removal service like We Kleen Clutter to pick it up. Fast pickups mean you won’t have to worry about surprise deductions from your deposit.

Smart Tips to Get Your Full Deposit Back

Take Pictures

After you’ve moved everything out and cleaned, snap some pictures of every room. Having proof that the place was clean and empty protects you if any problems come up later.

Read Your Lease

Your lease might have specific instructions about what’s expected when you move out. Some leases require carpet cleaning, nail hole repair, or appliance cleaning. Knowing ahead of time helps you avoid surprises.

Communicate with Your Landlord

Let your landlord know when you’re planning to move out. Ask if they’d like to do a walk-through with you. This gives you a chance to fix any small problems before they deduct anything from your deposit.

Keep Receipts

If you hire a cleaning service or junk removal company, keep the receipts. Some landlords like to see proof that you handled everything responsibly.
