Moving in or out of Des Moines
Whether you're handing back the keys to an apartment near Drake University, northwest of downtown, leaving a rental near Grand View University on the east side, or selling a house anywhere in the city, the job is the same: an empty home that has to be ready on a deadline. Our office in Clive is a short drive west of Des Moines, and because we work around the clock we can clean an empty unit late at night or early in the morning, between the movers and the next tenant.

Move-out cleaning FAQ
How much does move-out cleaning cost in Des Moines?
Most Des Moines move-out cleanings fall between $239–$500+. The price depends on the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, how much cleaning the home needs, and which add-ons you pick. You see your exact price when you book online.
Should my belongings be out before the move-out cleaning?
Yes, if you can. An empty home lets our cleaners reach every floor, closet and cabinet, so schedule the cleaning for after the movers leave.
Do you also do move-in cleaning?
Yes. The same service works for move-ins: we clean your new Des Moines home before the furniture arrives, so you unpack into a clean space.
Can you clean at night or on a weekend before my key handoff or closing?
Yes. Rapid Maid is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so we can fit the cleaning around your lease end date, key handoff or closing.
Do landlords and property managers book move-out cleanings?
Yes. Landlords use our move-out cleaning to get a unit ready for the next tenant. For several units or ongoing tenant clean-outs, see our commercial cleaning page or call (515) 305-3231.
