Georgia Move-Out Cleaning Checklist and Deposit Rules

Lawrenceville, Gwinnett County. 4 residential ZIP codes covered.
More than half the homes here are rented, so this is mostly a lease-end booking: the empty-home list, kitchen inside and out, before the walk-through.
Move In / Out Cleaning prices for your home size
Move-out and move-in cleaning in Lawrenceville is a one-time cleaning service for an empty home, on the old home’s last day or the new home’s first. With the furniture gone, the cleaning job is the inside of things: every kitchen cabinet and drawer, the fridge and the oven, inside and out, plus baseboards, light switches, blinds and the inside of the windows. All of that is part of the cleaning package, not sold as extras. It covers one to four beds and books online like our other house cleaning services, in all four city ZIP codes.
Most cleanings on this list follow the end of a lease. About 53% of occupied homes in the city are rented, and about 27% of homes are in buildings of five or more units (American Community Survey, 2020–2024 estimates). The tenant books it for the day after the truck and before the keys go back; a property manager books it between leases. The other group is sellers. About 30% of homes here were built before 1980, and an older house going on the market gets the same list, to have the home cleaned before the buyer’s walk-through. About 47% of homes have three bedrooms, so the usual rental house here books the three-bed, two-and-a-half-bath size.
Worked top down, because dust and debris fall, cleaning every surface named here:
A new home move-in is the one time every shelf is bare, the best moment to clean your new home. Used as a move-in cleaning service, the visit runs the same checklist, so the last household’s kitchen and baths are done before your dishes go in. When moving into a new home, book it for the morning the keys are yours, before the movers and before you get settled; you come home to a clean house that night and skip the time to clean between boxes.
Once you are settling into your new home, your cleaning needs shift from interiors to upkeep. Recurring cleaning in Lawrenceville is regular cleaning on the standard list, weekly, every two weeks or as monthly cleaning, each date booked on its own.
The test is whether anyone still lives there. An empty home gets move-in and move-out cleaning. A furnished house with full cabinets gets deep cleaning in Lawrenceville, where the interiors are extras added one by one. That visit runs to six beds, so a house above the four-bed size of this list can book the deep clean with the oven, fridge and cabinet extras, or call or email with the ZIP and room count.
When more than half the homes are rented, the person checking the work is often a property manager with a move-out form, not you. Ads promise a stress-free move, a spotless kitchen and a home that will sparkle; the inspector opens the oven. So ask any maid company four things before you book:
No house cleaner can promise your security deposit back; the lease and the person holding the deposit decide. In Georgia, under O.C.G.A. § 44-7-34, the landlord has 30 days after getting the unit back to return it, and ordinary wear and tear is not a reason to keep any of it. Paste the lease’s move-out clause into the notes and photograph each room after the visit, with the oven and the fridge open. Our move-out checklist and deposit guide has the details, and the move-in cleaning checklist covers the arrival side.
Pick the size online: one bed and one bath, two and two, three and two and a half, or four and two and a half. Extras such as a full sink of dishes, inside the dryer or the dryer vent are separate. In all four city ZIPs, 30043, 30044, 30045 and 30046, the downtown ZIP around City Hall, the total shows as soon as you enter the ZIP and the size. Carpet cleaning can join the same booking by room, stairs or hallway.
A professional cleaning service works best the day after the truck leaves: moving day has too many people in the doorway, so that is the best cleaning date whether you’re moving out or in. The crew drives from Winder, about 18 miles and about 30 minutes without traffic. Have the power and water on, and put the lockbox code, the gate code or the leasing-office hours in the notes, which take 2,000 characters and photos. Commercial units are not booked online, so call or email first, and anything the lease asks for beyond the list goes in the notes too.
All four: 30043, 30044, 30045 and 30046, the downtown ZIP. Each books online the same way, with the total shown for your size before you confirm.
No. The unit is empty on the day, and the crew needs only a way in and a way to lock up: a key at the leasing office, a lockbox code or a door code in the notes. To see the result yourself, pick a start time that lets you arrive near the end.
Yes. A property manager or owner books it the same way, at the unit's size, with the key arrangement in the notes. The list and the total are the same whoever books, and the next move-in clean can go on the day before the new lease starts.
This list goes up to four beds online. For a larger empty house, book the deep visit, which runs to six beds, and add the oven, fridge and cabinet extras, or call or email with the ZIP and room count.
No. The floors are vacuumed and mopped, but carpet cleaning is its own service, booked by area: stairs, a hallway or one to five or more rooms. Add it to the same booking so it is done while the rooms are bare, and the next household walks into a clean home.
