What's Included in a Move-In Cleaning in the UAE?

A move-in cleaning is a top-to-bottom deep clean of an empty property before you unpack, including inside cabinets, oven and fridge. Servia move-in and move-out cleans start from AED 840. With no furniture in the way, the crew reaches every surface the previous occupant missed, so you move into a genuinely fresh home.

# Quick answer

• What it is: a full deep clean of a vacant home, done before your furniture arrives.
• Extra vs a normal deep clean: inside all cabinets, inside oven and fridge, and wall spot-cleaning.
• Cost: from AED 840, fixed at booking.
• Time: usually 4 to 8 hours with a crew of two.

# What is included

A move-in clean covers everything in a standard deep clean plus the hidden interiors that matter in an empty home.

• Kitchen: degrease surfaces, inside all cabinets and drawers, inside the oven and fridge, sink and tap descaling.
• Bathrooms: full descale and disinfection of toilet, shower, tiles and fittings.
• Living areas and bedrooms: dust extraction from skirting, shelves and vents, interior windows and glass, floor scrub and mop.
• Whole home: wall spot-cleaning to lift marks, balcony sweep and wipe-down, and AC vent dusting.

Because the property is empty, the crew can clean behind and inside spaces that are impossible to reach once furniture is in.

# Move-in vs move-out: same clean, different goal

# Why book one in the UAE

Handover cleans between tenants are rarely as thorough as they look. Dust and fine sand settle in empty units fast, kitchen cabinets often hide grease from the last occupant, and AC vents collect months of dust. A professional move-in clean means the first surfaces your family touches, and the cupboards your plates and clothes go into, are actually disinfected.

What is the difference between move-in and move-out cleaning?

The clean is the same depth. A move-in clean prepares a fresh home for you; a move-out clean focuses on handover condition and can include a photo report to help recover your deposit.
