“Rosa Cleaning Services did my move in and move out cleanings for my new and old apartments and did a great job! They were communicative, kind, and thorough. The customer service performed by text and email were very quick to respond and they addressed all my questions fast. I will be using Rosa’s service for a recurring cleaning in my new apartment.”

H.C. – Atherton, CA.

“Rosa and her team did a phenomenal job with the move in cleaning our apartment! She really knows a lot about materials/surfaces and is very careful not to use chemicals that will damage anything, The highlight was the grout cleaning. The kitchen and bathroom floors look like new now, a true professional cleaning service experience.”

FAQ About Move-in & Move-out Cleaning

Are there any cleaning tasks you don’t provide?

Our professional services do not include wall washing, carpet shampooing, stain removal, fireplace cleaning, or disassembling light fixtures. Plastic or aluminum blinds are only light dusted.

What are the Add-Ons?

Add-Ons Services

  • Inside refrigerator, freezer, or oven
  • Interior or exterior window cleaning
  • Hand-wiping blinds
  • Balcony, deck, patio, or garage cleaning

Each add-on is available individually, so you can choose only what you need.
Note: Aluminum blinds are fragile, so they are only lightly dusted with a Swiffer. We do not hand-wipe them because the slats bend and damage easily, and heavy buildup may not be removable.

Do you offer maid services after my move in cleaning?

Yes. We provide professional house cleaning services, often referred to as maid services. After your move-in deep cleaning, you can choose to continue with recurring visits, weekly, biweekly, or monthly, to keep your home consistently maintained.

Do you offer guarantees?

Yes. We offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee on all services. If something is not right, contact us within 24 hours and we will return to make it right. This commitment is why clients consider us a dependable San Francisco cleaning service and recommend us as the best cleaning service San Francisco for moving support.
