In the Miami area, move-out and move-in cleaning are the same service read off one published table: from $450 for a one-bedroom, one-bath to $750 for a four-bedroom, three-bath, per visit, for a vacant property in normal condition. A move with two ends — a home you hand back and a home you receive — is therefore two visits, each priced by its own home’s size.
That is the part the cost guides skip: the exit clean and the arrival clean are not two products with two menus. Same 38-item checklist, same 2–3 person team, same table. The only thing that changes is which home you read the row for — and which add-on makes sense at which door.
One table, read once per home
These are the published starting prices for a vacant property, by bedroom and bath count. The canonical source — the only copy that gets updated — is the table on our move-out cleaning in Miami page, and it serves both directions.
- 1 BR · 1 bath · from $450
- 2 BR · 1 bath · from $500
- 2 BR · 2 bath · from $575
- 3 BR · 2 bath · from $625
- 3 BR · 3 bath · from $700
- 4 BR · 3 bath · from $750
The condition attached to those rows is in writing on that same page: the starting price applies to a vacant property in normal condition, and the final price depends on size, scope, condition, access, parking, and additional services. It answers the clock too: a studio or one-bedroom typically takes a morning to an afternoon, while larger homes can run most of a day.
The double bill, as arithmetic
Say you are handing back a 2 BR · 1 bath apartment in Kendall and picking up the keys to a 3 BR · 2 bath house in Westchester. On the published rows, that is $500 for the exit and $625 for the arrival — $1,125 in starting prices for the whole move. That is arithmetic on the published table, not a quote: each home is priced on its own condition and its own access, and either one can move off its row.
What moves them is covered in depth by this guide’s two siblings, so it is not repeated here. The exit-side economics — the booking form’s condition multipliers, the occupancy question, what the photo archive does for the deposit conversation — live in what a move-out clean costs. The arrival side — why an empty, just-vacated unit is the visit most likely to land exactly on its starting row — lives in what a move-in clean costs.
“The home you leave and the home you get are graded by the same six rows. Price both before the truck is booked, and the cleaning stops being the surprise line of the move.”
What each end includes
One checklist covers both directions. A visit works an empty property from kitchen through common areas: surfaces, sink, cabinet and appliance exteriors, microwave inside and outside, bathrooms, empty cabinet, drawer, closet and shelf interiors, doors, handles, switches, baseboards, cobwebs, and floors — 38 items, closed out with a full photo archive PDF. Refrigerator interiors, oven interiors, and window services are quoted separately.
And a move-in is not a lighter version of it. The service page’s own answer: it is the same 38-item checklist, scheduled between the previous occupant’s exit and your arrival, so cabinets, appliances, and bathrooms are clean before you unpack a single box. Whatever the last tenant’s cleaner skipped becomes that visit’s problem instead of yours.
The add-ons, split by door
The published separate lines are the same at either end: empty refrigerator $65 · inside oven $65 · oven + refrigerator bundle $115 · interior windows from $10 per pane · trash/junk removal by separate quote. Range-priced work, occupied properties, and extreme residue require review.
Where they earn their money depends on the direction. On the exit, the oven and refrigerator are the two interiors a final walkthrough opens — that is what the $115 bundle is for. On the arrival, the line a new resident most often adds is the $65 empty refrigerator: it is the surface your food touches on day one. Interior windows belong to whichever home actually owns the glass, and junk removal is almost always an exit-side line.
Two dates in one month-end
The calendar is the hard part of a double move, not the price. Booking needs at least 24–48 hours of lead time, and end-of-month dates fill first because most leases turn over then — and moving within the Miami area drops both of your cleans into that same crowded week.
The order is fixed by the keys. The exit clean goes after the last box is out and before your final walkthrough. The arrival clean goes into the gap between the previous occupant’s exit and your own move-in day. If either home is a high-rise, its logistics — elevator reservations, loading docks, visitor parking — can shape how the visit is scheduled, and in Brickell or Miami Beach most condo associations require a reserved freight elevator and a firm move-out window. Two buildings means two rulebooks: book both visits as soon as your dates are set, choose move-in/out on the booking form, and note each date.
And the deposit?
Honestly hedged: the clean addresses the items landlords check most — the kitchen, bathrooms, empty cabinet and drawer interiors, reachable surfaces, spot-cleaning of wall scuffs — and eligible completed visits include a CleanCheck photo report you can forward at handoff. The deposit decision itself always rests with your landlord. What a double move gains from two dated photo sets is symmetry: proof of how you left one home, and a dated record of how you received the other, right at the start of your lease.
The short version
One table, $450 to $750 by size, read once for each home in the move. The same 38-item scope in both directions; refrigerator, oven, and windows as their own lines; and two visits competing for the same month-end — the exit before the walkthrough, the arrival before the boxes. All six rows are on the move-out cleaning in Miami page, the same page either visit is booked from.
This guide is part of the JAS operating playbook — written for the week you are holding two sets of keys and neither home is clean yet.
