Move-in / move-out cleaning that stops the security-deposit fight
The hardest cleans are the empty ones. With nothing in the way, every surface is exposed — every baseboard, every cabinet interior, every smudge on every wall. The next tenant sees all of it. Tidy Guys handles move-in and move-out cleaning across Nashville for offices, retail, and commercial spaces in transition.

Why move-in / move-out is its own service
Move-in / move-out cleaning is more thorough than a standard recurring clean and faster than a post-construction clean. The space is empty, which means we can hit every surface — but it also means the standards are higher. There is nowhere for dust to hide. Pricing reflects that: it's a project price, not a per-visit rate.
Pricing
Move-in / move-out cleans are priced as one-time projects based on square footage, the condition of the space, and any added services (carpet steam clean, window exterior, paint touch-up coordination). We give written quotes within one business day. Most jobs can be scheduled within 24–72 hours of quote acceptance.
