Move-in & move-out

Move-in and move-out cleaning in Framingham

Empty homes only: the old house after the truck pulls away, the new one before the first box comes in. Free same-day estimates by phone.

Chapter 01

The house with nothing in it

Move-in and move-out cleaning at SC Cleaning Services is built for empty homes. In the company’s own words: “We clean old homes after your furniture is taken out & new homes before your furniture arrives.” That one sentence sets the whole job. The crew works in rooms with nothing to move around, so the cabinets, closets and floors can be reached end to end.

The timing is the point in Framingham, Ashland, Holliston, Medfield and Walpole, where a closing date or the end of a lease rarely leaves much slack. If you’re moving out, the visit comes after the truck pulls away. If you’re moving in, it happens before the first box comes through the door. Either way you spend moving day on the move itself, not on a bucket and a sponge.

Call the office at (508) 816-6286, say which side of the move you’re on, and talk through your dates. The estimate is free and the answer comes the same day.

Inside every cabinet, closet and the oven

The full service list reads like a walk-through with every light on. Inside the cabinets and inside the closets. Countertops and baseboards. The doors, front and sliding. Cobwebs come down, window sills get wiped, and the blinds and light fixtures are cleaned too.

The bathroom is cleaned in full. Carpet is vacuumed, floors are vacuumed and washed, and the windows are done on the inside. The oven and the fridge are included where the home has them, and they are the two jobs most people dread at the end of a move.

A few things sit outside that list and carry an extra fee: a toys declutter, sweeping the garage, the porch and deck, outside windows, professional carpet cleaning, and cleaning supplies and rags. SC doesn’t publish prices, so ask for the cost of any add-on when you call (508) 816-6286.

For sellers, buyers and the agents between them

Jane Neilson of Realtor-Boston ’Burbs put it on Google: “I have hired SC for several listings. Her crew is polite, friendly and very thorough.”

Ethan Gordon had a tighter clock. His father’s condo needed to go on the market quickly, so once it was cleared out he called SC for a deep cleaning. “The place looked brand new afterwards,” he wrote, and he added that the team “scheduled us in on short notice.”

Sellers and buyers around Framingham, Wellesley, Newton and Weston can get a free same-day estimate by phone at (508) 816-6286. The office is open Monday to Friday, 7:30 am to 5 pm. Tell them the dates you’re working with and they’ll tell you what fits.
