Book move-out clean

You work all week, and somehow the weekend still disappears into scrubbing bathrooms and vacuuming up pet hair.

Or worse — you hired someone once, they showed up late, rushed it, and skipped half the list. So now you're back to doing it yourself.

Why most cleaning services disappoint

You've got four options. Three of them have a catch.

Do it yourself

Free, but it costs four to six hours every week — and it never actually stays done. You're starting over by Wednesday.

Costs your weekend

Someone off an app

Cheapest on paper. No insurance if something breaks, no coverage if they're hurt in your home, and no backup when they cancel Sunday night.

The liability is yours

A national franchise

Reliable-ish, but priced by the hour, upsold at the door, and run by a call center that has never seen your kitchen.

Nobody owns the result

Halo Housekeeping

Insured W-2 employees working from a written profile of your home, a price quoted for your actual house, and a guarantee if we get it wrong.

Documented and guaranteed

The problem was never the person cleaning. It's that nobody wrote anything down — which is exactly why we built the Halo Standard.

The Halo Standard

A five-step protocol, so quality never depends on who's holding the mop.

ONE

Quote in 60 seconds

Tell us about your home online. Written price back, usually same day. No in-home sales visit.

TWO

Your home profile

We document your standards on the first visit — products, priorities, what to skip entirely.

THREE

The checklist clean

Every task worked in order against your tier's checklist. Non-toxic products and a full-size HEPA vacuum, all supplied.

FOUR

Named, never anonymous

You get your cleaner's name before they arrive. Nobody unannounced ever stands at your door.

FIVE

The 24-hour window

Anything missed gets re-cleaned free within a day. The job isn't finished until you say it is.

Book your clean in about a minute.

Three services in two years before this one. What changed is that I stopped having to leave notes — they wrote everything down after the first visit and it just gets done that way now.

They missed the inside of the shower door once. I mentioned it that evening and someone was back the next morning. No company has ever done that without an argument first.

The quote was the price. I'd been quoted hourly by two other companies and both came in over. Halo told me the number before starting and it hasn't moved in eleven months.

Pricing details

Priced for your home, not off a list.

Two homes of identical square footage take very different amounts of time depending on layout, condition and pets. One published number would either overcharge you or get walked back at the door — so we quote yours.

What shapes your price

  • Size and number of bathrooms
  • Condition of the home today
  • Standard, deep, or move in / out
  • Monthly or one-time
  • Pets in the home
  • Any add-ons you want

What's never on the bill

  • Booking or trip fees
  • Supply or equipment charges
  • Surcharges added after the clean
  • Cancellation penalties
  • Anything you didn't approve

How you get your number

Tell us about your home and we send a written quote, usually the same day. No in-home sales visit, no obligation. You pay after the clean is finished — never before — by card, ACH, Apple Pay or Zelle.

Add-on services

Inside the oven or refrigerator, interior windows and tracks, blinds detailed, laundry washed and folded, deep pet-hair removal, closet and pantry organizing. Priced individually, never added without asking.

Post-construction

Renovation dust needs a different process and different equipment. We work with general contractors, property managers and homeowners to get a unit ready for occupancy. Free walkthrough on larger projects.

Commercial & contracts

Offices, small commercial spaces, short-term rental turnovers and property management portfolios. Volume scheduling and consolidated invoicing available. Tell us the scope.

Straight answers

Everything you're probably wondering, handled.

Can I trust strangers in my home?

Every Halo cleaner is a W-2 employee, background-checked, bonded and insured — not a subcontractor pulled off an app. You'll have their name before they arrive, and you don't need to be home.

Will it be the same person every time?

Usually, but we won't promise it — people get sick and take vacations, and we'd rather be straight with you than break that promise in month three. What doesn't change is the standard: your written profile goes to whoever is assigned.

What if I'm not happy with the clean?

Tell us within 24 hours and we come back and re-clean that area at no charge. No forms and no argument about whether it counts.

Are there hidden fees?

No. Your quote comes in writing before anything is scheduled and that's what you pay. Add-ons are optional, priced separately, and never added without asking you first.

Do you bring supplies?

Everything, including a full-size HEPA vacuum. Products are non-toxic and safe around kids and pets once dry. Prefer your own products? Leave them out and we'll use those.

I have pets and specific requests.

Both are normal. Pet-hair removal is included in the Deep Clean and available as an add-on otherwise, and anything you want handled a particular way goes straight into your home profile.

Am I locked into anything?

Never. No contract, no minimum term, no cancellation fee. Skip a month, pause for the summer, or stop entirely — just let us know.

How soon can you come?

Most new clients are scheduled within three to five days. If you need something faster, call us — we hold a small number of slots for short-notice work.
