Moving is stressful enough without the cleaning hanging over you at the end. Whether you're moving out, moving in, or turning a home between tenants, here's the exact checklist our Lynett Treasures LLC team uses on every move-out clean across Metro Atlanta — from our home base in Fayetteville to McDonough and beyond.
Kitchen
Inside the oven, stovetop, and range hood — grease is the first thing an inspector notices
Inside the refrigerator and freezer (empty, wiped, odor-free)
Inside every cabinet and drawer — crumbs hide in the corners
Counters, sink, and faucet polished
Floors swept and mopped, including under where appliances sat
Bathrooms
Tub, shower, and tile scrubbed — soap scum and grout lines get inspected
Toilet inside, outside, and behind
Mirrors, fixtures, and faucets shined
Inside cabinets and drawers emptied and wiped
Floors swept and mopped
Bedrooms & Living Areas
Ceiling fans and light fixtures dusted
Baseboards wiped — dust lines are easy for an inspector to spot
Walls spot-checked for scuffs and marks
Closets emptied, shelves wiped, floors done
Windows: glass inside, plus sills and tracks vacuumed out
Whole Home
All trash out — including the garage and patio
Cobwebs from corners and ceilings
Vents and returns dusted
Every floor finished last, after all the dust has settled
What landlords and property managers check first
In our experience, inspections start with the kitchen appliances, the bathrooms, and the floors. A home that smells clean and shines in those three places passes the walkthrough with confidence.
Do it yourself, or hire it out?
A true move-out clean takes most people 6–10 hours on top of packing and moving. If your weekend is worth more than the scrubbing, let a professional crew handle it. Lynett Treasures offers free quotes — call or text (404) 396-0862 — and spotless move-outs are kind of our thing.
