How much does a move out cleaning service cost in Bloomington?
A move-out and move-in cleaning in Bloomington starts from $369 per visit, while a standard house cleaning for an occupied home starts from $229. Empty homes require a deeper house cleaning because baseboards, grout, and the inside of every appliance, cabinet, and closet are cleaned before the landlord or new owner inspects the property. We quote a flat price per visit based on the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, and the overall condition of the home, so the total cost is known before anyone arrives, whereas an hourly rate can increase if the work takes longer than expected. That single flat price includes inside the oven, inside the refrigerator, emptied kitchen cabinets, bedroom closets, and wiped baseboards without extra add-on fees. Every request receives a free itemized quote detailing what will be cleaned during the move out cleaning.
What move out cleaning in Bloomington involves that a generic one does not
In Bloomington, 53 percent of homes are single-family detached houses and 12 percent are in large apartment buildings with 20 or more units, while in nearby Credit River, 98 percent of homes are single-family houses. Larger houses with multiple bathrooms and staircases require more time to scrub baseboards and tile grout than compact apartments. From November to March, snowy winters bring road salt and slush into entryways, leaving stubborn white streaks on hardwood, vinyl, and tile floors. Landlords and buyers notice these salt marks immediately during a winter walkthrough. Wiping entry floors regularly during a move prevents salt from grinding into floor finishes, while scrubbing window tracks removes accumulated dust before the final handoff.
Getting the security deposit back in Bloomington
In Minnesota, a landlord must return your security deposit or provide an itemized list of deductions within three weeks after your tenancy ends and you supply your new mailing address or delivery instructions. To learn more about deduction rules, normal wear and tear, and what to document on moving day, visit our Minnesota move-out and move-in cleaning page. Keeping clear, dated photos of every room after the clean alongside an itemized receipt helps clear up any disagreement with a landlord.
How long it takes, and when to book cleaning services in Bloomington
A studio or one-bedroom unit usually takes 2 to 4 labor hours to clean. A two-bedroom home takes 4 to 6 labor hours, while a three-bedroom house of 1,500 to 2,000 square feet takes 5 to 8 labor hours. Larger properties with four or more bedrooms starting at 3,000 square feet require 8 to 14 or more labor hours. Sending a two-person crew cuts the time spent on site in half, though the total labor hours remain the same. Heavy grease inside the oven or food spills in the refrigerator can add 2 to 3 hours to the visit. Schedule your cleaner for the day after the movers finish, and ensure electricity and running water stay on.

Move out cleaning in Bloomington: FAQ
What is the starting price for a move-out cleaning in Bloomington?
Prices start from $369 per visit for an empty home. The final rate depends on the number of bedrooms and bathrooms as well as the home's condition, rather than the square footage.
Is it worth cleaning an apartment before moving out?
Booking a move out cleaning makes sense when your security deposit is larger than the cost of the clean or when your lease requires a clean unit upon departure. If your lease already charges a non-refundable, fixed cleaning fee regardless of condition, check with your landlord before paying for a clean.
What does a move-out cleaning include?
The service covers the interior of the oven, refrigerator, cabinets, and closets throughout the home. Every bathroom is scrubbed top to bottom, baseboards are wiped down, and all hard floors and carpets are thoroughly vacuumed and washed.
Do you charge by the hour for a move-out cleaning?
No, every visit is quoted as a flat rate based on bedrooms, bathrooms, and initial condition. Hourly estimates make it difficult to predict the final bill because the time needed varies depending on who performs the work.
How long does a landlord in Minnesota have to return a security deposit?
A landlord has three weeks from the end of the tenancy to return your deposit or send a written list of withheld amounts, starting once you provide a forwarding address. For complete details on state regulations, visit our Minnesota move-out and move-in cleaning page.
