Move-In Cleaning in Charleston, at the published rate.
Preparing a new home in Charleston, South Carolina, for move-in often requires a thorough cleaning before furniture arrives. With 68,027 occupied housing units in the area, ensuring your new space is spotless before settling in can simplify the relocation process.
People search for this as a move-in deep clean, a pre-occupancy clean or simply a new-home clean. The work is the same either way: cabinet and drawer interiors, the insides of the appliances that stay with the house, bathrooms, and every floor — done while the rooms are still empty, because the same job costs more time once furniture and boxes are in place.
What the service covers, step by step — the checklist, the timings and the published starting price — is on the move-in cleaning page. This page is about running it locally. For everything else we do in Charleston, see cleaning services in Charleston.

Our move-in cleaning service in Charleston is designed to prepare your empty property, whether it's one of the 11,663 one-bedroom units or a larger home, ensuring it's ready for you. We focus on areas like closets, kitchen appliances, and bathroom faucets, leaving your new space fresh. For a full list of what our move-in cleaning includes, please visit our national service page.

What the service covers is set out on our move-in cleaning page.
Charleston sits in Charleston County, South Carolina, and is home to 154,338 residents. Its 68,027 households are a mix of houses and apartments, with 44.5% of homes in multi-unit buildings. Single-family houses make up 54.6% of the homes here. Of residents age 15 and over here, 39.4% have never married, per the same census survey. Our teams also work in neighboring Mount Pleasant, James Island and Hanahan.
Enough to keep a steady rota, but this is not a high-turnover area: 122,043 of 147,085 householders were in the same home a year earlier (US Census Bureau ACS 5-Year 2024 (2020-2024), Table B07013). Move-in cleans here are individual bookings spread through the year rather than one lease cycle everybody moves on, so slots are usually available on the date you need.
By the size of the empty property, from the published starting price on the national move-in page. 25,554 of 77,417 homes in Charleston have three bedrooms and 22,140 have two (US Census Bureau ACS 5-Year 2024 (2020-2024), Table B25041), so most bookings here are a half to a full day. Book it for the gap between closing and the truck — the cabinet interiors and appliance seals are reachable once and never again.
The surfaces you cannot reach once the van is unloaded: inside kitchen cabinets and drawers, refrigerator and oven interiors, bathroom fixtures, closet shelves, baseboards, and the floors last. The full checklist is on the national page.
Say so and we will tell you honestly. Broom-clean changes the time, not the checklist: cabinet interiors, appliance seals and bathroom fixtures are almost never covered by it.
On the national move-in cleaning page — it carries the checklist, the timings and the published starting price, so it is maintained in one place rather than reworded on every local page.
