End of Tenancy and Move-Out Cleaning Berlin: Checklist-based handover
The End of Tenancy and Move-Out Cleaning Berlin service from Immo-Clean GmbH prepares flats and commercial units for the handover: every position from the cooker extraction to the skirting boards is worked through a checklist that matches the handover protocol. Fixed crews and an on-site site manager deliver a result that stands up to the deposit inspection.
Short notice before key return
Often yes: send us the property size and the deadline, and we confirm the fastest slot. Same-day and next-day appointments are possible across most of the city, and move-out cleans are usually completed in a single day before the keys change hands.
Empty and furnished properties
Both, with the method matched to what is still in the flat: furnished units receive careful detail work around furniture and fittings, empty properties are worked through completely, down to skirting boards and the inside of cabinets.
Written confirmation after cleaning
On completion you receive a service confirmation with the finished scope, ready for the deposit settlement and the handover protocol with landlord or agent. Checklist-based quality loops mean every room and item is checked against the written scope, with agents and findings logged; landlords receive a copy on request.

Further Move-Out Cleaning Services
Move-Out Cleaning for Every Berlin Property Type
A handover clean is judged by one question: does the protocol pass? These scenarios show the typical constellations we clean for; the viewing then fixes the exact programme.
Altbau Flat with Floorboards
Period boards cleaned and cared for, high windows, stucco, and old fittings handled gently.
Apartment with Carpet and Tiles
Carpet deep cleaned, tiles and joints brought to protocol standard, sanitary descaled.
Furnished Handover
Inventory cleaned around and checked, furniture moved and the floor worked underneath.
Vacant Property
Empty rooms with full basic cleaning, dust control, and airflow hygiene before the viewing date.
Whole House with Cellar and Attic
Staircase, cellar compartments, and attic rooms worked into one handover checklist.
Commercial Unit after Move-Out
Sales and back-of-house areas cleared of adhesive residues and returned to the agreed condition.
After Renovation
Construction dust removed in stages, surfaces polished, and the unit handed over ready for viewing.
Short-Notice Handover
Cleaning at short notice before the appointment, coordinated directly with the landlord or agent.
Handover with Protocol Support
Cleaning aligned with the handover protocol and documented with photos for the deposit settlement.
Cleaners and Methods for Handover Surfaces
Choosing the right method protects floors, fittings, and appliances. Before use, we check the surface, the soil, and material compatibility.
Material-Appropriate Cleaners
pH-neutral maintenance cleaners cover everyday needs. Specialist products are used only where the surface and the type of soil require them - for example, limescale removers on bathroom fixtures.
Floor Protection
PVC, linoleum, natural stone, porcelain stoneware, and parquet each receive their own care plan. Slip resistance and preservation of value come first.
Kitchen Degreasing
Ovens, extractor hoods, and tile splashbacks are degreased with appropriate agents. Stainless steel is polished material-friendly, without leaving residue.
Carpet Treatment
Carpets are cleaned by encapsulation or extraction methods depending on fibre and soiling. Test areas prevent discolouration and confirm expected results.
Move-Out Cleaning in Eight Clear Steps
From the initial survey to documentation, responsibilities, scope, and quality checkpoints remain transparent.
- Initial survey: we record property size, layout, inventory, surfaces, access, and special handover requirements.
- Every room and item is recorded with its scope, method, and defined result in a clear written specification.
- The site manager divides the property into zones and plans routes, material stations, and the timing of the day.
- A fixed team is briefed on access, keys, house rules, and the landlord's inspection criteria before deployment.
- Machines, cloths, and cleaning products are matched to the surfaces and inventory and made ready for use.
- The handover cleaning follows the agreed checklist, with every zone, any unusual findings, and material use documented.
- If anything misses the mark during the walkthrough, we correct it on the spot without escalation chains.
- A written confirmation with completed scope details supports the deposit return and the landlord's handover protocol.
Case Study: Apartment Handover in Prenzlauer Berg
A representative example of how we take over and complete a same-day key handover in Berlin. The concrete figures vary depending on the property.
Starting situation: A 3-room apartment in Prenzlauer Berg with a same-day key handover deadline. The previous tenant had lived there for eight years; the kitchen was heavily soiled, the bathroom had limescale around the taps and shower, and the windows needed interior cleaning. The landlord expected a deposit-safe handover.
Assessment and plan: We scheduled the move-out clean in a single day with a coordinated team: kitchen degreasing and oven cleaning, bathroom limescale removal, floor treatment, interior windows, and full inventory coverage. A checklist defined every item the landlord typically inspects.
Implementation with a fixed team: The team worked to the agreed checklist and documented every zone. The site manager was on site as the direct contact for the landlord and confirmed completion before the key handover. The landlord accepted the property without deductions from the deposit.
What changed for the handover
- Same-day completion before key handover deadline
- Kitchen, bathroom, and floors passed landlord inspection
- Interior windows and frames cleaned streak-free
- Full inventory coverage with documented checklist
- Deposit returned without deductions

What Determines the Price? A Worked Example
Move-out cleaning is not charged as a flat rate per square metre; area, inventory scope, and soiling level all matter. The following values are non-binding guidance figures - the binding fixed price always follows the free site survey.
What factors into the quote
- Degree of furnishing and vacancy - an empty flat shows every trace and usually needs the full programme; furnished units are cleaned around the inventory, vacant properties allow longer windows
- Share of deep cleaning - cooker, extraction, tiles, and sanitary fittings decide how much real basic cleaning is needed on top of the standard positions
- Condition and age of the interior - calcified bathrooms, nicotine, or neglected floors add positions that we price openly rather than hiding in the daily rate
- Timing - a fixed handover date with little lead time costs more than a planned appointment with two weeks notice
Fixed price after the survey
An hourly rate leaves open what the flat looks like at the end; a fixed price defines it position by position. Our quote lists every item from the oven to the light fittings, including the deep-clean share identified at the viewing, so the deposit is not eaten up by surprises. Materials, quality control, and the final inspection are included; the binding fixed price is issued only after the free viewing. Pricing overview.
