Quick answer

At a glance: price, time and what’s included

End of tenancy cleaning, also called move out cleaning, is a thorough clean of your rental before the final inspection. A pro cleans the kitchen, the bathroom and every room on your landlord’s checklist. Then you can hand back the keys with confidence.

It goes further than a regular clean. The home is empty, so every cabinet, surface and corner is thoroughly cleaned. The home is then ready for the next occupant.

What’s included
Kitchen and bathroom cleaning, all rooms and floors. On request also the oven, fridge, windows and extra spaces such as a balcony.
Price
A small apartment (1–2 rooms) costs €180–€350. A larger apartment (2–3 rooms) costs €250–€450. A family home costs €350–€550, and a large or detached home €550–€850+. For small jobs, the hourly rate is about €35–€45.
How long
A thorough move-out clean of a small apartment takes about 4 to 9 hours of work. With two cleaners, that is half a day.
When to book
One to two weeks before your move-out date. Book sooner if it falls at the end of the month.

Checklist

What does end of tenancy cleaning include? A room-by-room checklist

A professional move-out cleaning service covers every room, from the kitchen cabinets to the grout in the shower. These are the points a landlord or property manager checks at the handover. Often missed: the top of the cabinets, the space behind the fridge and stubborn limescale on the shower drain.

Cleaning checklist, room by room

  • Kitchen: worktops, hob, sink and taps, and cabinets inside and out. Grease comes off the tiles.
  • Appliances on request: oven, hood, fridge, freezer, microwave and dishwasher
  • Bathroom and toilet: limescale scrubbed off taps and shower glass, tiles and grout cleaned
  • All rooms: dust off shelves, skirting boards, switches, door handles and radiators
  • Floors vacuumed and mopped. Carpets vacuumed, with deep carpet cleaning on request.
  • Window cleaning inside, streak-free, with sills and frames. Outside windows on request.
  • Extra spaces you list, such as a storage room, attic or balcony

Agree separately

  • Repairs, filling holes and painting
  • Taking away rubbish, furniture or floor coverings, unless you agree it
  • Approval of the home: that is up to your landlord

Local

Moving out in Utrecht: what to plan for

Utrecht is a student city, and many tenants rent a room in a shared house. When you move out of a room, agree with your housemates who cleans the shared kitchen, bathroom and hallway. Then put that in your job.

Homes in and around the old centre are often in old buildings with narrow stairs and no lift. Say which floor you live on.

SSH and the housing corporations, such as Bo-Ex, Mitros and Portaal, often hold an inspection before the handover. Keep their list and your move-in report at hand for the cleaner.

The centre is hard to reach by car and parking is paid. Tell the cleaner where they can park, or name a garage or P+R.

  2. Ask what is included in each room, and who brings the products and tools

  3. Look for attention to detail: ask how they deal with the oven, limescale and spots that are often missed

  4. Ask if they come back when a spot was missed at the handover

  5. Agree how the cleaner gets in and who holds the key

Warning signs

  • A fixed price without knowing the size, tasks and access
  • No clear agreement on what is not included
  • Payment up front without a written agreement

What does end-of-tenancy cleaning in Utrecht cost?

A small apartment (1–2 rooms) costs €180–€350. A larger apartment (2–3 rooms) costs €250–€450. A family home costs €350–€550, and a large or detached home €550–€850+. For small jobs, the hourly rate is about €35–€45.

What does a move-out clean include?

Every room: the kitchen cabinets and appliances, limescale in the bathroom, the skirting boards and the floors. Got a handover list? Add it to your job, so it is followed exactly.

How long does it take, and how far ahead should I book?

A small apartment takes about 4 to 9 hours of work. A family home takes longer. Make your booking one to two weeks ahead. Plan the clean one or two days before the handover, so you have time to check the result.

Who pays for end of tenancy cleaning?

Usually the tenant. In the Netherlands you hand back the home in the state it was in when you moved in, apart from normal wear and tear. The law does not say who must do the cleaning. Some landlords and property managers ask for a pro clean in the rental agreement.

Will a professional clean help me get my deposit back?

A thorough clean that meets the landlord’s inspection standards gives you a strong start at the final inspection. It helps tenants avoid deductions and gives a better chance of a full deposit return. Your landlord decides on any deduction from the security deposit, so walk through the home together before you hand back the keys.

DIY or hire a professional?

Moving out of a home is busy. Cleaning yourself saves money, but it often takes a full day in the middle of your move. Hiring professionals gets you the right products for limescale, grease and grout. They also know what gets checked.

What is the difference between end of tenancy, deep and move-in cleaning?

Move-out cleaning gets the home you leave ready for the handover. Deep cleaning is a thorough clean of a home you keep living in. Move-in cleaning is for the home you move into, before your furniture arrives.
