The Ultimate Move-Out Cleaning Checklist for Landlords in Newmarket

A room-by-room move-out cleaning checklist for Newmarket landlords and tenants โ€” built to pass inspection and protect security deposits.

Moving season in Newmarket means one thing for landlords: turnover pressure. A thorough move-out clean is not optional โ€” it is the difference between a fast re-listing and costly vacancy delays.

Kitchen โ€” Deposit-Critical Zones

  • Degrease range hood, backsplash, and stovetop (including drip pans)
  • Clean inside oven and microwave
  • Wipe all cabinet faces, handles, and interior shelves if required in lease
  • Sanitize sink, faucet, and disposal splash guard
  • Mop floors and clean baseboards

Bathrooms

  • Descale shower heads, grout lines, and glass doors
  • Disinfect toilet inside and out, including base and behind
  • Polish mirrors and chrome fixtures
  • Empty and wipe vanity drawers if turnover standard requires

Living Areas & Bedrooms

  • Dust ceiling fans, vents, and light fixtures
  • Wipe all switches, doors, and trim
  • Vacuum carpets or mop hard floors edge-to-edge
  • Clean interior window tracks and sills
