Apartment Cleanouts / Make Ready Service

Ariel’s Apartment Cleanouts / Make Ready Service

A vacant unit costs money every day it’s not lease-ready. Ariel Cleaning provides fast turnaround make-ready cleaning and cleanouts for landlords and property managers across South Florida, so units go from move-out to move-in without the usual delay.

Standard Make-Ready - Starting at $175

A 1-bed, 1-bath unit with a normal move-out gets a full make-ready clean for around $175.

Heavy Cleanout + Clean - Starting at $350

A unit left in rough shape, with furniture or trash left behind, runs closer to $350 once cleanout and hauling are included.

Multi-Unit Turnover Package - Custom Quote

A property manager with several units turning over the same week books them as one coordinated job instead of separate appointments.

Why Choose Ariel Cleaning

Fast Turnaround

We know every vacant day costs you rent – most make-readies are scheduled within 48 hours of the request.

Cleanout and Clean, One Crew

If the previous tenant left furniture or trash behind, we haul it and clean in the same visit instead of requiring a separate junk removal appointment.

Built for Property Managers

We can work directly with your leasing team on scheduling and invoicing across multiple units.

Move-In Ready, Not Just Swept

Appliance interiors, cabinets, and baseboards are part of every make-ready – not just visible surfaces.

Wiped down and cleared of anything left behind.

Living areas & baseboards

The spots a rushed clean usually skips.

Entry & flooring

The first impression a prospective tenant gets.

How We Handle What the Last Tenant Left Behind

Not every move-out is clean – furniture, trash, or a garage full of boxes are common. We sort what’s there, haul what needs to go, and set aside anything obviously worth donating rather than treating it all as trash. Once the unit’s cleared, the same crew moves straight into the deep clean so there’s no gap between cleanout and cleaning.

Standard Turn vs. Heavy Cleanout Turn

Standard Turn

  • Normal move-out, nothing left behind
  • Straightforward deep clean, no hauling needed
  • Fastest turnaround

Heavy Cleanout Turn

  • Furniture or trash left behind by the previous tenant
  • Requires haul-away before the clean can start
  • One crew handles both instead of two separate appointments

How It Works

  1. We Clean (and Clear, If Needed)

Full deep clean, plus haul-away of anything left behind.

  1. The Unit’s Ready to Show

Photo-ready and lease-ready, usually within 48 hours.

What Slows Down Turnovers in South Florida Rentals

  • Humidity means a unit sitting vacant even a couple weeks can develop musty odors or early mold in bathrooms if it’s not cleaned and aired out.
  • Snowbird season creates a seasonal spike in move-outs, so booking a make-ready early in that window helps avoid scheduling delays.
  • South Florida’s mix of older buildings and new construction means make-ready needs vary a lot – some units need deep grout work, others just need a fast surface clean.
  • Storm season can delay move-outs and turnovers, so flexible scheduling matters more here than in other regions.
  • Left-behind furniture is common in transient rental markets near beach and tourist areas, making cleanout-plus-clean a frequent combo request.
