Before your cleaning
Scope and condition
Tell Milan about the condition of your home, heavy buildup, clutter and any areas that need extra work. Discuss the service scope, time and estimate before booking.
Heavy grease, soap scum, dust, pet hair and clutter can require work beyond a standard Deep Clean. Share photos with Milan if you are unsure which service fits.
Moving out in San Francisco
A move out cleaning in San Francisco usually has a deadline attached. When you call, tell us which of these applies to you.
Rented flats and apartments. Most San Francisco moves are out of a rental. Tell us the date of your final walk-through with the landlord or property manager so the cleaning is finished before it.
End of the month. Most leases end at the end of the month, so the days from the 25th to the 5th fill up first. Call as soon as you know your move date.
Elevators on moving day. If your building has you reserve the elevator for movers, tell us the time so the cleaning team and the movers are not using it at once.
Power and water. The team needs electricity and running water. Tell us if either will be shut off before the cleaning.
We do move out cleanings across San Francisco, including Nob Hill, Russian Hill, Hayes Valley, the Mission, SoMa, the Inner Sunset and the Inner Richmond.
Parking in San Francisco
If the home is in an area where parking is difficult or metered, a $10 parking fee may be added to your visit. If the building has parking, a reserved spot for our team is greatly appreciated.
Timing the cleaning around your handover
Milan Cleaning Company serves San Francisco homes. A move out cleaning usually has a deadline attached. These questions help us fit the work to yours. Your estimate is given by phone, with no in home walkthrough needed first.
- What date and time is your handover, inspection or final walk through? Tell us so the cleaning can be scheduled to finish before it.
- If movers are coming the same day, what time do you expect them to be done? The move out checklist is written for a home that is ready to clean throughout.
- Is anything staying behind, such as furniture or boxes? Tell us what and where.
- How will our team get to your door? Tell us about any gate, intercom, lobby or service entrance on the way in.
- If your building has a manager, front desk or association contact, is there someone we should coordinate with, and is there a set window when service providers may enter?
- If there is an elevator or a loading area, are there instructions for using it with cleaning equipment, or a time it needs to be reserved?
- If there are stairs to your home, about how many flights? This helps us plan how equipment is carried in.
- Who will have the keys after the cleaning, and who should we tell when we finish?
