Dallas leases turn over quickly, and a clean, empty unit is what stands between you and the deposit you put down when you moved in. On moving day you are already stretched thin, so the final scrub is the easiest part to hand off. We take it on and leave the place ready for the walk-through.
We are Move Out Cleaning Company, and we clean move-outs for renters across Dallas and the wider DFW area. We clean to your landlord’s move-out checklist at a price we set before we start, bring our own crew and supplies, and re-clean any missed item for free. This page covers what we clean here, what it tends to cost, and how the Texas deposit rules work.

What our Dallas move-out clean covers
A move-out clean is a detailed, top-to-bottom clean of an empty unit, focused on the places a landlord or leasing office actually checks. For a typical Dallas apartment or house, that includes:
- Kitchen top to bottom: inside and outside the oven, stovetop, inside the fridge, cabinets, counters, backsplash, and sink
- Bathrooms scrubbed: tub and shower, tile and grout, toilet, vanity, mirrors, and hard-water buildup
- Floors vacuumed and mopped, with baseboards wiped and closets cleaned out
- Interior windows and sills, ceiling fans, light fixtures, vents, switch plates, and door frames
- Spot-cleaning on walls and doors where scuffs tend to show
You can read the full room-by-room scope on our move-out cleaning page, and if you are in an apartment, our apartment move-out cleaning page covers the specifics that matter in a leased unit.
An upfront price with no add-ons
Your Dallas clean is quoted as one flat price, worked out from the size and condition of the place rather than charged by the hour. The crew and the supplies are included, and nothing is added at the end. If your landlord’s checklist is missed anywhere, let us know and we will come back and re-clean that area at no extra cost. A thorough clean clears away one of the most common reasons a deposit gets reduced, which gives you the best chance of getting the full amount back.
Dallas deposits and the 30-day rule in Texas
Here is the general picture for Texas, shared as information and not as legal advice. The Texas Property Code gives a landlord 30 days after you surrender the unit and provide a forwarding address to refund your deposit, and any amount kept has to come with an itemized list of the deductions. There is no state cap on how large a deposit can be. Across DFW, plenty of leases also call for a receipt proving the carpets were professionally cleaned, so check that clause before you turn in the keys. Rules and lease terms change, so confirm the current state law and your own lease before relying on any of this.
The cleanliness of the unit is the piece you can control. A place cleaned to the checklist removes the simple deductions, and our security deposit cleaning page explains how we align our work with what landlords look for. We cannot promise what your landlord will decide, but we can make sure a dirty unit is not what costs you.
Where we clean across Dallas and DFW
We cover the city and the suburbs around it. In Dallas we clean move-outs in Uptown, Deep Ellum, Oak Lawn, Lower Greenville, and Bishop Arts, from apartments to rental houses. Out in the metro we work across Plano, Frisco, Irving, Arlington, Richardson, and Garland. Wherever the unit sits, the clean is built around the place and the checklist that goes with it.
What a move-out clean costs in Dallas
Cost depends on size and condition, so here is a range to work from. A move-out clean for an apartment in Dallas often ranges from about $130 to $300, and for a house it often ranges from about $300 to $550, with larger homes and heavier build-up toward the top end. Once we know the address, the size, and the condition, we give you one flat number that stays put unless the scope changes.
Scheduling around your move
Move dates in Dallas can be tight, especially when one lease ends as another begins, so we schedule around yours. Most renters have us clean after the furniture is out and before the final walk-through. Our end of lease cleaning page explains how we time the clean to your handover.
Give us your Dallas move date and we will fit the clean to it.
We clean in metros across the country, listed on our locations hub, including nearby Houston and Austin. Wherever your Dallas place is, send the details and we will take the final clean off your list.

Questions people ask
Do Dallas leases really require a carpet-cleaning receipt?
Many across DFW do, asking for proof the carpets were professionally cleaned at move-out. We handle vacuuming and floor cleaning on every job, so tell us what your lease requires when you book and we will confirm what your clean includes.
How long does my landlord have to return my deposit in Texas?
As a general rule, a landlord has 30 days after you surrender the unit and give a forwarding address to refund the deposit, with an itemized list for anything kept. This is background information, not legal advice, so confirm the current law and your lease for your situation.
Will a clean guarantee I get my deposit back?
No one can guarantee that, because the decision is the landlord’s. What a clean to the checklist does is remove cleanliness as a reason to withhold money, which gives you the best chance of a full refund.
What does a move-out clean cost in Dallas?
As a rough market range, apartments often run about $130 to $300 and houses about $300 to $550, depending on size and condition. We give you one flat quote for your specific place up front, with the crew and supplies included and no hidden fees.
What if the walk-through finds something missed?
Tell us and we come back to re-clean that area at no extra charge. The clean is done to your landlord’s checklist, so correcting a missed item from it is on us.
