Move-Out Cleaning Checklist for Edmonton Renters

To get your full damage deposit back, an Edmonton move-out clean should cover every surface a landlord inspects — inside appliances, cabinets and closets included. Use the checklist below, or have it done professionally so it passes the walk-through.

The full checklist

• Kitchen: inside oven, fridge, microwave, cabinets, drawers; counters and backsplash
• Bathrooms: tub, shower, toilet, sink, mirrors, tile; inside vanity
• All floors vacuumed and washed
• Baseboards, door frames, light switches and walls spot-cleaned
• Inside all closets and storage
• Windows, sills and tracks
• Remove all garbage and leftover items

Why it matters

Landlords most often deduct from deposits for ovens, fridges, bathrooms and floors. Hitting every item above is what turns a walk-through into a full refund.
