Join the Opening List →Belleville is the St. Louis area's anchor on the Illinois side: founded in 1814, mostly by German pioneers, and the county seat of St. Clair County since the seat moved there from Cahokia. About a quarter of its homes date from before 1940.
Because Belleville is in Illinois, a few rules that shape a move or a cleaning visit differ from the Missouri side. This page covers the homes, those rules and the city's sanitation habits.
Belleville was founded in 1814 by pioneers who were mostly German, and it became the county seat of St. Clair County when the seat moved from Cahokia. About 40 percent of occupied homes are rented, and about 66 percent of housing units are single family detached homes.
The city requires a Certificate of Occupancy before a residence can legally be occupied, and it inspects the dwelling for defects and code violations as part of that process.
About 26 percent of Belleville homes were built in 1939 or earlier, and about 72 percent before 1980. That means plenty of plaster, old hardwood, painted trim and small tiled bathrooms, alongside postwar ranches and later houses.
In homes built before 1978, painted sills and trim may contain lead-based paint, so they are wiped damp rather than dusted dry, and never sanded or scraped. Old floors are damp mopped with a well wrung mop, and older tile gets mild products and a soft brush on the grout.
Illinois handles deposits differently from Missouri. A landlord who keeps any of a deposit for damage must send an itemized statement with estimated or actual repair costs within 30 days after the tenant moves out. Clean, empty rooms and dated photos give a tenant the strongest footing in that conversation.
On the other side of a move, Belleville's Certificate of Occupancy means the next tenant or buyer may be waiting on an inspection. Book the Moving Clean, which adds the inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets, after repairs and before that inspection.
Belleville sanitation requires trash, recycling and yard waste to be out by 6:00 a.m., and it collects yard waste in two-ply Kraft paper bags or marked cans of up to 32 gallons. Cleaners bag household trash for your own containers; set them out on your normal schedule after the visit. Large items and furniture are not part of any cleaning service, so arrange those separately.
