Move-Out Cleaning Checklist for Georgia Renters and Landlords
By ScrubMAX Team · August 26, 2026 · 5 min read
The room-by-room move-out cleaning checklist we use to help Georgia renters recover deposits and help landlords turn units faster.
Why move-out cleaning decides your deposit
Georgia landlords and property managers inspect for normal wear versus dirt. Dust on blinds, greasy range hoods, and soap-stained showers are the line items that most often cost renters part of a deposit — and all three are fixable in one visit.
Kitchen
- Inside and outside of all cabinets and drawers
- Inside oven, stovetop, range hood, and drip pans
- Inside and behind the refrigerator
- Sink, faucet, and disposal flange
- Countertops, backsplash, and light switch plates
Bathrooms
- Tub, shower walls, and glass — including hard-water and soap scum
- Toilet base, hinges, and behind the tank
- Vanity, mirror, and drawer interiors
- Exhaust fan cover and vent
Bedrooms and living areas
- Closet shelving and tracks
- Baseboards, door frames, and switch plates
- Ceiling fans and light fixtures
- Window sills, tracks, and interior glass
- Floors vacuumed and mopped edge to edge
Landlord and Realtor turns
For rentals and listings, we photograph completed units on request so you have proof of condition for the next tenant or a showing. Repeat turn schedules get priority booking.
