Based in Costa Mesa, Connor’s Cleaning services move-outs throughout Orange County — from small studios in Costa Mesa and Newport Beach to 4-bedroom houses in Irvine, Laguna, and the LA coast. Every clean is done to the standard property managers, landlords, and Airbnb hosts inspect against, so your security deposit comes back and your listing shows well.
We handle the whole home in one visit: interior appliances, cabinets and drawers emptied, baseboards, blinds, floors, and a full vacant-home reset. If you’re just as focused on the next tenant walking in as you are on the last one walking out, we cover both with move-in cleaning.

Condo move-out
HOA-friendly cleaning for condos across OC + the LA coast. Elevator scheduling, coordinated timing with movers, and a scope that meets both HOA move-out inspection and the landlord’s checklist.
House move-out
Single-family homes 2–5 bedrooms. Full-home reset including garage sweep as an add-on. Coordinated with your moving day so we arrive after the truck leaves.
Renters, owners, and the people who inspect after them.
Get your security deposit back.
We clean to the checklist your landlord or property manager actually inspects against — not a generic “we cleaned” clean. If they push back on any line item after inspection, we return and re-clean it free within 72 hours.
Ready your home for the next chapter.
Selling, listing, or leaving a rental? A move-out clean gets the home to a showing-ready or handoff-ready state. Coordinated with photographers, stagers, and realtors on request.
Turn your unit faster.
Direct-schedule with us for unit turnovers between tenants. Consistent standard across every property, flat-rate invoicing (we bill you directly, not the tenant), and same technician every time so they learn your buildings.
Reliable turnovers on your timeline.
Portfolio pricing, coordinated scheduling, and turn-key deposit reporting. Preferred vendor for OC property management firms and real estate teams handling luxury inventory across Newport Coast, Irvine, and the coast.

The other side of the move.
Before your furniture arrives is the easiest time to deep-clean a home — empty space, full access to every corner, no working around your things. Move-in cleaning uses the same scope as move-out, timed against your closing or lease-start date so you arrive to a home that feels like yours from day one.
Ideal for buyers taking possession, tenants signing new leases, and anyone who wants a fully-reset baseline before they unpack. Price matches the move-out tier for the same home size.
Before & after.
Real move-outs across Orange County — kitchens, bathrooms, floors, and the details that fail inspections.
Deposit-back guarantee.
If your landlord or property manager flags any line item on our scope within 72 hours of inspection, we return and re-clean it free. No fees, no arguments, no fine print — because our standard is the inspection standard.
What clients ask before they book.
How much does move-out cleaning cost?
Starting rates: Studio $249 · 1BR $289 · 2BR $389 · 3BR $479 · 4BR $629 · 5BR $799. Final quote depends on square footage, home condition, and add-ons (garage sweep, interior windows, etc.). We confirm the total before we start — no hourly billing.
What is included in move-out cleaning?
Interior cabinets and drawers, closets, baseboards, inside oven, empty refrigerator, microwave, appliance exteriors, and a detailed vacant-home reset — kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, floors, glass, fixtures. See the full checklist above.
How long does a move-out cleaning take?
4–8 hours for most homes. Studios take about 4 hours, 2-bedroom apartments 5–6 hours, larger houses 7–8 hours. Because we’re flat-rate, we take the time it needs — no shortcuts, no clock-watching.
Do you clean inside ovens and refrigerators?
Yes — both are included in every move-out clean at no extra charge. Refrigerator must be emptied before we arrive (or scheduled as an add-on to remove contents).
Can landlords or property managers schedule service?
Yes. We work directly with OC property management firms and independent landlords on unit turnovers. Direct billing, flat-rate per unit, and consistent standard across every property.
Do you provide cleaning supplies?
Yes — every clean includes EPA Safer Choice certified solutions, HEPA vacuum, microfiber cloths, and all supplies. You don’t need to buy anything or leave anything behind.
Is move-in cleaning also available?
Yes — move-in and move-out are the same scope with different timing. If you’re taking possession of a new home, we’ll schedule the clean against your closing or lease-start date so you arrive to a fully-reset space.
