Move-Out & Move-In Cleaning in Victoria, BC
Pearly's Cleaning Co. does move-out cleaning across Greater Victoria, and the same clean works when you're moving in. We clean inside the appliances, cabinets and drawers, plus baseboards, window tracks and marks on the walls. Move-out cleans are a flat rate, from $249 for a studio. Tell us your move date on the quote form to book.
Moving is already stressful. The cleaning shouldn't add to it. We clean top to bottom, to the standard that helps protect your damage deposit, or so the next family walks into a clean home.
Please ensure the home is empty prior to our cleaning service and that no other people (movers, tradespeople, etc.) are working in the space. We also require electricity and water.

For Tenants and Landlords
A move-out clean sits between two tenancies. If you're the tenant, it's the last job before you hand back the keys. If you're the landlord or property manager, it's how an empty suite gets ready for the next person. We work from the same checklist either way.
What Landlords Check
These are the spots landlords tend to check first, and a move-out clean covers every one of them:
- Inside the appliances, plus the stovetop, burners, drip pans and knobs
- Inside the kitchen and bathroom cabinets and drawers
- Baseboards, door frames and window sills
- Window tracks
- Marks on the walls, spot-cleaned (some may need to be painted over)
Booking Your Move-Out Clean
- The home needs to be empty: the furniture out, and no movers or trades working while we clean.
- The power and water need to stay on, so book the clean before the utilities are switched off.
- Landlords can book the same clean for a vacant suite between tenants, before the new tenant arrives.

Move-Out Cleaning Prices
Move-out cleans are a flat rate, so you know the number before moving day and no hourly meter runs while we work. Prices start with a studio, and the rate depends mainly on the number of bathrooms and kitchens, and the square footage.
A move-out clean is its own kind of deep clean, so you don't need to add one.

Move-Out Cleaning in Victoria: Common Questions
What does a move-out clean cost?
Move-out and move-in cleans are a flat rate from $249 for a studio, set mainly by the number of bathrooms and kitchens, and the square footage. No hourly surprises stacked on top of moving day.
Will this get my damage deposit back?
We can't promise that — whether your deposit comes back is your landlord's call. We clean to the standard that helps protect your damage deposit, covering the spots landlords check first: inside cabinets, appliances, baseboards and window tracks.
Do you document the condition of the home?
We document the home's condition with photos and a completed cleaning checklist.
Does the home need to be empty?
Yes. We need it cleared of furniture and people — no movers or trades working at the same time — plus power and water on so we can do it right.
How far ahead should I book?
Move dates are fixed, so book as early as you can. A week or two out is ideal to lock in your slot.
