Great Job, Ladies! New sub here. I've always deep cleaned my apartments when I moved out. My landlords were amazed and I've been told that "No one does that." I also deep clean apartments before I move my things into it. Like others have said in the comments, you should treat and care for things that aren't yours better than you treat and care for your own things. Guess it's just the way we were raised, with respect for others and their things?

I was living in a duplex before i bought my house. I did a deep clean before I moved out and the landlord told me that it was the cleanest move-out he's ever seen! Made me proud. Actually, I lived there for 10 yrs and ALWAYS kept duplex clean from get go anyway, so didn't have to do that much in the first place.

One tip I heard on another cleaning channel and I thought was brilliant…… she lays pieces of wax paper on top of the kitchen cabinets so there is no greasy dusty build up, she just picks up the wax paper, gives things a wipe and puts new wax paper down….cheap and saves so much cleaning time and products !

You actually clean the top of the cabinets! My landlord hired cleaners to do a move-in clean after the last tenant left it dirty. The place needed a deep clean and they just did a basic maintenance clean. The kitchen needed so much work, I did a MUCH better job myself after they left!

Exactly, and then when you move out they charge you to clean it! I take photos every time I move in or out and definitely email them right away with the list of flaws you find. Then there’s a paper trail. My current landlord does bi-yearly inspections and I use it as my time to deep clean. Behind the stove, fridge, etc.. Like my mom use to say, limpia hasta donde no ve la suegra. I know, I butchered that saying. Please correct me if you know the right one.😂
I use baking soda in a bowl with a few drops of essential oil. Just leave it out for 12-24 hrs. A tip I got from my mom (who was a housekeeper for 40 yrs) was to cut an onion in 1/2 & place where needed. Onions absorb odor, then toss. Bonus tip...if your rice burned a little, toss a 1/2 onion in it so your rice doesn't have that burned smell/taste. Hispanic moms are the 💣 Love your content!

hi everyone 🙂 i usually try to not express my personal decorating opinions but i was just so happy to see a landlord clean between apartments so well that i threw my opinion about carpets out there; i guess because of my experience having lived in a rental with carpeting [a gross story that could have been prevented]. i know some people do like wall to wall carpeting; and it does often look nice, but i just don't like them at all for a host of reasons [mostly because of dirt/germs]. But i do know too that for some elderly people, wall to wall carpeting is a safety option for them. So anyways, i hope i didn't hurt anyone's feelings; happy decorating and cleaning everyone. 🙂 God bless everyone.

I can't imagine leaving a home in that state. I'm so sorry you had to deal with that. I never considered myself to be a clean-freak, but I must be. I have a check list of cleaning tasks that need to be done weekly, monthly, or twice a year. The list is broken into 15-30 minute tasks. Each day, I pick two tasks. Once in a great while, I'll need to spend more than an hour (never more than two) cleaning. Most days, it's not over 45 minutes. By the end of each task's timeline, it's done. I used to do a spring and a fall deep clean, but I always dreaded them. The task list method helps me keep my house clean without being overwhelmed.

I was one of those people who did not know how to clean and it would take forever to get it all done, so I hired a housekeeper and I would get her to show me how and what to use. She was great! She showed me what products were best for the different jobs and to use a cheap sponge mop to clean the tubs and surrounds and the walls...the best was having 7 or 8 laundry baskets and put one in each room and while cleaning a room..put anything that did not go in that room in the basket. then after all the rooms were clean, then deliver all the stuff to the rooms where it belonged. Now that I am old and in a wheelchair, I can still do most of the cleaning.
Re: smell. From post-move out tenant cleaning experience, I think the smell you encountered may have been from maggots. I once cleaned a house with a fly problem where the smell wouldn’t go away no matter how clean all surfaces were. Turned out, there were maggots behind the baseboards. Once we removed all the baseboards and cleaned underneath, the smell finally disappeared.

Cleaning Vinegar in a spray bottle works great and is inexpensive. For greasy clean-up, a couple of drops of Blue Dawn dish detergent works great! (Dawn & Cleaning Vineger in a spray bottle works fantastic as spot treatments for laundry.)
My landlords NEVER had to clean my apartments when I moved out. I was taught that you take better care of "borrowed" goods than you do your own and leave it cleaner than when you got it. The thought of leaving my dirt behind for someone else to clean is unacceptable. My landlords loved me. Fast forward to age 69 with progressive osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia. I need help cleaning but can't bear the thought of someone else doing it. My hubby just doesn't have the same standards I have so I try to do things myself and spend 2 days to a week recovering. Anyhow, the landlord occupation is not for me because people just don't care like they used to...

When I was with a cleaning company I preferred move in/move out cleans. There’s was nothing in our way and we got to do a thorough job of it. We worked as a team of 4 (kitchen, bathrooms, dusting, vacuuming) and when one was done they helped another. My favorite days lol
I read a story once about ladies who cleaned with Lysol. They prided themselves on the fact that if someone came to their house they could smell Lysol because it indicates their house was clean. For myself, I got cancer at the age of 46, I began researching cleaning products that have cancer causing chemicals. I was shocked. Bleach for instance is so incredibly toxic. If used properly it’s not so bad, but we tend to overuse it. I also became extremely sensitive to scents. So I must be very careful of anything that has artificial scents added. I admire how deeply you clean this place, I must tell you I do not believe I’ve ever moved into a very clean place like this. I always found something needing to be cleaned.

I use to deep clean rental properties and it is a lot of work when you ACTUALLY clean the entire environment! I always start from the top, and work my way down. The most difficult part for me was bidding on jobs because there was almost always more than expected on the surface. I always took things apart as far as I could to get to the deepest parts. Like ovens, at 19:02 that bottom looks like it comes out. You can clean it easier and then clean underneath that where the oven cleaner and other crumbs and juices) drips through! I would also run the oven at 350 for about a half an hour to “bake-out” the oven cleaner smell, and any cleaner/debris I missed would be easier to see for a final touch up as well. Do you do that as well? So awesome to see a like-minded deep-cleaner who puts in the effort like you do!

I wish my landlords had hired real professionals like you. All the landlords I've had hire cleaners who claim to be professional but will only clean just enough to make it LOOK clean. Every time I move into a new rental, there are cobwebs everywhere, grimy window sills and frames, grimy floors, carpet coated in pounds of dust. And the bath tubs are their own horrors. It makes moving in so much more stressful than needed because I have to deep clean the new place while packing up and moving out the old place.

I was told by a retired firefighter to put white vinegar in plastic or glass bowls all over the house and change it out every few days to rid my BIL's house of the dead smell. I haven't done any cleaning yet, but the vinegar has helped, so I can get in there to start cleaning... I think I will try this Zep when I start cleaning.

It's a lovely unit and they did not treat it well but you are really upbeat and that's refreshing! I love the way you clean, you clean like me and it's so satisfying to watch! In NZ we pay two weeks rent in advance when we rent a place. When we leave, if it's not perfectly clean, including ceiling and walls, then we don't get our initial two weeks rent. It's a lot of money so generally people clean and clean and clean to make sure they get their money back. We even hire a carpet cleaner if there's carpet and waterblast the outside of the house. It's a really big deal, I can't imagine just walking out leaving a place looking like that!

AWESOME VIDEO!!! I like the idea of wax paper on top of the cabinets. I pretty much clean like this and I was trying to figure out the best cleaner to use on my wooden kitchen cabinets and lo and behold, I already have some Dawn Powerwash. Can’t wait to get started on my kitchen. I clean out my refrigerator (shelves and drawers, all of it) several times a year. I hate a messy refrigerator. We also take our refrigerator out twice a year and the stove once a year to clean under it. But it is only my husband and I who live here, and a short haired senior Chihuahua so under those appliances, it isn’t too bad. Thank you for a great video! Be safe and take care. ❤

This!!!! It all depends on everyone’s living arrangements that can depend on how often it should be done. ☺️☺️
Amazing job...folks can learn alot from your clean techniques 😊
Move out cleaning is hard. Never knew till I worked for a company! Walls, floors, fans, windows. It takes 4-13 hours for studios to 3 bedroom!
You are amazingly thorough. I enjoyed watching
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Y’all deserve an award 4 such an Awesome Job!!! TFS, Rest n Relax but Take Care!!!🙏🏼💜🙏🏼💚

Ahhh 🤗🤗🤗 thank you
Beautiful work! Thank you for posting details, actual supplies & how to use them.
I rented a 3-bedroom 2-bath mobile home for two years and I did such a deep clean when I moved out the landlord's were extremely surprised because they've never had anybody clean the way I did , told me when most tenants move out that usually replace carpets and everything else but with me they didn't have to do that. They gave me back my deposit within a week with a letter of thank you for keeping the house so clean. And I didn't have to clean the dishwasher because I hate using a dishwasher I think dishwashers are nasty so when I moved out the paperwork was still in the new dishwasher
For cleaning the microwave you should use a glass bowl put two cups of water and two tablespoons of either white vinegar or lemon juice. Microwave on high for five minutes. Let it sit for about 10 to 15 minutes to cool. Then carefully remove glass bowl and glass turn table. Clean with damp cloth starting inside top, sides and bottom. The steam usually softens any stuck on food. Plus you can be cleaning something else while it’s steaming up.
I wish you lived near me. I'm moving out soon too! Your awesome and very thorough. Thanks for the video and tips too.
Incredible. Once in my life, I want to leave in a place this clean and beautiful.
I can highly recommend Liquid Gold furniture polish. It makes everything shine like new, especially my wooden kitchen cabinets and tables etc. Thanks for the video. I love to learn about different amazing products that work and make a difference.
Gee, I wish my apartment complex management provided such a service for move-ins. I always thought that it should be mandatory to hire people to clean, if not have a staff to do so. I think I will add this to my list of suggestions for my city. Thanks for your integrity, responsibility, and diligence!
Oh my goodness…. I would have loved to move into such a clean unit! I never had such a clean apartment to move into
Can you share the checklists that you use for both deep cleanings & regular basic cleanings?

Thank you with the help in what to do about a regular clean product to keep down pet smell (that doesn’t have a strong odor)! My daughter has Asthma and can’t tolerate high odor cleaners. Definitely going to give this one a try!

Try Nature's Miracle pet cleaning products. They work pretty good.
I read where you can take like a hand grater like for cheese or finer than cheese, and after you clean the windowsills, grate a small amount of Irish Spring soap down onto the windowsill and the bugs won't come back. I haven't tried this yet but I'm looking forward to this. Hope this helps. Thank you for the taking the time to show us your products also, because I am not a good housekeeper and I need all the help I can get but I can't afford to hire anybody. However if you're in San Antonio let me know and I will definitely hire you. I will find the money
I really enjoy watching your channel. Love you cleaning ideas. I just moved into my apartment and they cleaned, but not deep enough for my liking. I have to get the tips of the cabinets, they are grimy. Thanks for that info. Blessings to you and your mom. I also don't know how I would have done with all this flies. Lol
Looks great! You and your mom are so cute. Very meticulous and thorough. Wow, what a difference. Like night and day. 👍
This was awesome. I clean deep and just know it needs to be done! I want to suggest that the drapes need to touch the floor to look better. It was a good idea to toss the blinds as they are a pain to clean. God Bless
Wow, what a great video! You know where all the dirt is, and get all of it! I wish you could come and help me get my house good clean! I used to keep a very clean and organized house, but 10 years ago, I became disabled. I can't do the housework I used to do. I'm physically incapable of it. I loved working to make it sparkle... and now I have to look at dust bunnies! I love seeing how thorough you are!😊
Hi! I totally understand! I had rented property in past it’s amazing what people leave behind , one tip that I will give you take away bad smells is put out a plate or bowl of charcoal and pell apple on top, it will take away any bad smell, trust, if there a dead mice you can’t find, it will take that smell away with in a day , thanks! 🤗🥰
NIce job! I'm dealing with a move out situation as well. I was going to do it myself, but it was quickly apparent that the task was bigger than I could handle alone. Even the cleaner wasn't able to get everything, like the places where candle wax is now a part of the bedroom carpet, and she was here six hours! I'm going to buy or borrow an iron and try that. I'm more bothered by the things that are broken or have gone missing. It makes me sad, because I'd never treat someone else's space and things like that.

That is the pain of renting out places these days. No respect at all.
You are right - "clean" doesn't have a scent. I noticed when going to other people's houses, then coming back to my own, I notice a musty odor (I have 2 dogs and wall-to-wall carpeting in all but kitchen, hallway, bathrooms and foyer. There was a ceiling leak that was fixed but the carpet in the living room got wet, so I suspect that's part of the odor. I'm sure the dogs add to it as well. You'd love me as a tenant - I do amazing move-out cleanings after myself and family.
Just found your channel. Love your information, given in a pleasing and understandable way. Thank you. Have subscribed.
Many years ago I moved into a horrible house. The linoleum floor was so dirty that I didn't realize it had a pattern until I started scrubbing. When I left, the floor was clean and I had installed pale yellow vinyl wallpaper in the kitchen and hall. I've never used Zep. Thanks for your video.
I have lived in my apartment for 11 years. The longest i have ever lived anywhere. I have never moved the appliances, it never occurred to me. But i guess it does make sense. Thank you for talking about that.
New subscriber from Georgia... Enjoyed your video, you girls did an excellent cleaning. I clean behind all my appliances including the washer and dryer every 5-6 months. See you soon!!!
You are amazing. That was awful the way tenant's left that home. I just found this channel. Love it.

This house is spotless compared to some of the eviction tenants I've seen. bullet holes through walls garbage everywhere mattresses on the floor feces everywhere. people are absolutely fucking disgusting
Look into using cordless drill and scrubbing brush attachments. They come in stiff and soft bristles. Saves a bunch of elbow grease

It also could have been the drip pan of the fridge. It only takes one fly to lay at a minimum of 50 eggs. I've seen worse than that. Enjoyed this video. DISAGREE about the clean scent - to me, bleach smells clean. That's clean.
Your tenants are lucky that you do such a thorough job. Wish you lived near me!
You are awesome! This is really a skill that I need to master. Thanks for sharing🙌
Take the vent covers and blinds to the shower or outside to a hose. Takes a few minutes and then done. The blinds can dry over a fence.
Great job! Turns out that's a very nice apartment-after your cleaning.
I agree! It’s a lot of work to clean even an empty house. So much more space to cover.
Have you seen the ceramic scraper that looks like the one that holds the razor? It’s great and it doesn’t scratch whatever you’re using it on.
For the ceiling fans, we use a pillow case, put it on each blade and the dust catches in the pillow case. Then you can use your favorite cleaner on it without dust getting in your face or falling down.
The cleaning you have done is amazing. In Australia, we have to clean the rental before we leave. It is documented when we move in and when we move out with the real estate agent. We also have to provide our own appliances - fridge.

I would prefer to supply my own appliances -- soo tired of paying for appliances that don't work well. Owners tend to get the cheapest model on the market, or they get used appliances so the tenant has to deal with problems that caused the earlier owner to replace it.
