One of the most exciting times in life is moving into a new home. Unless it is a newly built home, you may want to give serious consideration to giving the home a thorough, deep clean before you move your family and possessions into it.
Diamond Cleaning can take care of this for you! Our expert cleaning team will thoroughly clean your new house before you move in to make sure everything is in top condition for you and your family.
Get rid of all that old dirt first. Then make sure it’s shiny and new to you!
Before we get into the details, the top tip experts agree on:
- Cleaning should be the first thing you do before the movers arrive, and the last thing you do after the movers leave. When you're leaving a place, try to clean your spaces after the boxes have been packed and before they've been delivered to your new home. Wide open spaces make cleaning more comfortable and help you avoid tripping over things.
Cleaning Tips for moving into your new home if you like to do it yourself.
1. Make sure you have enough time to clean your place
You need to take care of both your old and new places when planning a relocation. Organise the cleaning of your future home before the moving date. This can be stressful with all the packing and preparations going on, so consider the benefits of hiring a company to do it for you. In addition, Diamond Cleaners can offer you great deals on end of tenancy cleaning for your old place.
2. Purchase cleaning supplies in advance
Once the hustle around the move starts most people forget to check their cleaning supplies or leave everything for the last minute. If you are moving to a small flat you might be able to get away with it, but still why get stressed. Buy everything in advance.
3. Rent a carpet cleaning machine and clean your carpets
You need to get your carpets steam cleaned and germ-free before you move into your new property. If you don't have the time and don't know how to do it Diamond Cleaners has extensive experience in carpet cleaning.
