Moving into a new home in Orlando is exciting — but before you unpack a single box, it’s worth starting with a truly clean space. Even a home that looks tidy has hidden dust, germs, and grime left behind by previous owners or builders. This move-in cleaning checklist will help you start fresh in every room.
Kitchen
The kitchen deserves the most attention. Wipe down and disinfect all counters, then clean inside and outside of every cabinet and drawer. Don’t forget the inside of the refrigerator, oven, and microwave, and sanitize the sink and faucet. Mop the floors last so you finish on a clean surface.
Bathrooms
Disinfect toilets, tubs, showers, and sinks, and scrub any grout that looks discolored. Wipe down mirrors, cabinets, and light fixtures, and replace the toilet seats if you’d prefer a fresh start. A deep sanitizing here makes the whole home feel new.
Bedrooms & Living Areas
Dust everything from ceiling fans and light fixtures down to baseboards and window sills. Clean inside closets, wipe down doors and switch plates, and vacuum or mop every floor. Cleaning before your furniture arrives is far easier than working around it.
Don’t Overlook These
Air vents, ceiling fans, window tracks, and door frames collect dust that affects your air quality — important in Florida’s humid climate. If the home has been empty or recently renovated, a professional deep cleaning tackles the built-up grime a standard clean can miss.
