What's Covered
The One-Time Moving Clean covers every surface and area that appears on a typical landlord move-out inspection report, not just the surfaces that are easy to clean. Interior appliances, cabinet interiors, baseboards, window sills, and grout are the most common sources of security deposit deductions. All are standard checklist items.
TotalCare Cleaning will work with buyers, sellers, landlords, property managers, and real estate agents in Stuart. Coordination with tenants or management can be arranged directly. We will work around closing dates and move-out deadlines.
Pricing starts at $391 for 1 bedroom through $817 for 5 bedrooms. All priced by the home, all supplies included.

Join the Opening List →About 41 percent of occupied homes in the City of Stuart are rented, and many more Treasure Coast homes change hands every year as owners sell, downsize or move north. Whether you are handing keys to a landlord or to a buyer, the last clean happens in an empty home, and that is what the Moving Clean is built for.
This guide covers the Florida deposit rule, how to clear large items in Stuart and Port St. Lucie, what an empty Treasure Coast home needs before a walkthrough and how the Moving Clean differs from a deep clean.
Section 83.49 of the Florida Statutes sets the timeline. Once a lease ends and you have moved out, a landlord who is not keeping any of the security deposit has 15 days to return it. A landlord who intends to claim part of it has 30 days to send you written notice of the claim by certified mail to your last known address.
You then have 15 days from receiving that notice to object in writing. If you do not object, the landlord may deduct the claimed amount and return the rest. That short window is the reason to document the home on the day you leave: photos of each room, the inside of the appliances and the bathrooms, plus a dated record of the cleaning.
Cleaning is one of the most common reasons for a claim. A home that is visibly clean at the walkthrough removes the easiest one.
The rental picture varies sharply by town. In the City of Stuart, about 41 percent of occupied homes are rented and about 39 percent of units sit in buildings of 10 or more units, so a typical Stuart move-out is a two bedroom condo or apartment. In Palm City only about 10 percent of homes are rented, so most moves there are sales of owner occupied houses.
Port St. Lucie, with more than 260,000 residents, is mostly detached three bedroom homes, and many rentals there are single family houses rather than apartments. Those come with a garage, a lanai and more bathrooms to clear before the next tenant.
Cleaners will bag ordinary trash for your bins, but they do not move or carry out furniture, appliances or other large items. Each town handles bulk items differently, so plan the pickup around your move date.
The Moving Clean includes everything in a One-Time Deep Clean, from hand washed baseboards and wiped blinds to window tracks, fans, light fixtures and vents, then adds the parts of an empty home that a landlord or buyer opens first: inside the oven, inside the refrigerator, and inside the kitchen and bathroom cabinets and drawers.
In Treasure Coast homes, a few spots deserve extra attention. Sliding door tracks collect sand. Bathroom grout and caulk hold mildew after months of humid weather, since Stuart normally gets more than 6 inches of rain a month from June through October. And the older condo stock, with about 46 percent of Stuart units built before 1980, often has original cabinets and fixtures that need mild products rather than abrasive pads.
A Moving Clean runs $391.00 to $817.00 across the five size rows. A two bedroom Stuart condo is typically priced at $493.00, and a three bedroom Port St. Lucie rental house at $538.00. The full table is on the Stuart house cleaning cost page.
The same clean works for an empty home before you unpack. If you are new to the area, the deep cleaning guide explains how the climate builds up grime here, and the recurring cleaning guide shows how often most households schedule visits once they settle in.
