The move-in / move-out clean is designed for empty homes going through a transition: tenants leaving, new buyers moving in, or landlords turning over a unit. With furniture out of the way, your Pro gets inside every cabinet and drawer, behind every appliance, and into every baseboard and blind. Most empty homes are completed in 5–7 hours. Pricing starts at $347. Zulma isn’t charging sales tax during launch, so your price is all-in: the number you see before you confirm is the number you pay, with no hidden fees.
Available 7 days a week across the Niagara region and Hamilton. For weekend or holiday move dates, book at least a week ahead. Those slots fill fast.

Who this service is for

Tenants protecting their deposit. Most Ontario landlords expect this level of clean for a full deposit return. Zulma provides a detailed receipt you can share with your landlord or property manager. New homebuyers. Move into a place that smells and feels like new, especially after the previous owners’ last frantic clean. Landlords between tenants. Get the unit photo-ready for listings or showings within 24–48 hours of move-out.
Just renovated or built? The Post-Construction Clean is purpose-built for removing fine drywall dust and construction debris that a standard move-out clean isn’t equipped for.
