Moving is the perfect time to get your new home’s exterior professionally cleaned — before you move your furniture in and before you settle in. Here’s a checklist to coordinate your move and power washing for maximum efficiency.
Before Moving In: The Ideal Window
The best time to power wash a home is after closing but before moving in. You have full access to all exterior surfaces, no furniture to work around, and you can see the results clearly before your belongings arrive.
The Moving Power Washing Checklist
- Schedule power washing for the week after closing
- Book house washing, driveway cleaning, and deck cleaning in a single visit
- Have gutters cleaned and inspected
- Check the roof for algae or black streaks — schedule softwashing if needed
- Clean the garage floor before moving vehicles in
- Clean the patio or deck before setting up outdoor furniture
When Moving Out: Leave It Clean
If you’re selling your current home, a professional exterior cleaning dramatically improves curb appeal and can increase your listing price. Buyers notice clean driveways, bright siding, and well-maintained exteriors — and it photographs dramatically better for online listings.
