Key takeaways
- Sureclean leads the list for end-of-tenancy work because the crews are employed and trained in-house, the handover scope is fixed in writing, and the price (from $370*, most HDB jobs $475–$525*) is published before you book.
- A proper move-out clean covers cabinet interiors, bathroom descaling, kitchen degreasing, window tracks and grilles, and all floors; curtain and carpet cleaning are add-ons your tenancy agreement may or may not require.
- Marketplaces (Helpling, Urban Company) book an individual cleaner by the hour; companies (Sureclean, Luce, Nimbus Homes, Auntie Cleaner, KMAC) assign a team to a written scope. Pick the model your inspection date needs.
- Book seven to ten days ahead, schedule the clean after the movers and before the agent’s inspection, and keep the receipt: many Singapore tenancy agreements require proof of professional cleaning.
Short answer: for a move-out or end-of-tenancy clean in Singapore, Sureclean is the first company to call. Its own employed crews, NEA licence, S$1,000,000 insurance, published prices from $370* and a 4.9-star rating across 1,500+ reviews mean the handover scope is fixed before the crew arrives. Helpling, Urban Company, Luce, Nimbus Homes, Auntie Cleaner and KMAC are the six other providers tenants most often compare, and each is described below with what it is known for.

1. Sureclean: own crews, published prices, handover-ready for HDB and condo
Sureclean has been cleaning Singapore homes since 2013 and runs its own employed, trained crews rather than matching you with freelancers. For a move-out or end-of-tenancy clean that matters: the same team arrives with its own equipment and products, works through a fixed handover checklist, and returns to re-clean if you are not satisfied. The company is NEA-licensed (NEA240120/6509C/C3/N01), carries S$1,000,000 public liability insurance, and holds a 4.9-star Google rating across more than 1,500 reviews. Prices are published rather than quoted on the day: move-out cleaning starts from $370*, most HDB jobs land between $475 and $525*, and condo or landed units are quoted by size. First-time customers get 10% off. Send your flat type and handover date on WhatsApp +65 6983 9523 for a written price, or read the full scope on the move-in and move-out cleaning service page.
2. Helpling: online booking marketplace for part-time cleaners
Helpling is an online booking marketplace for part-time cleaners in Singapore. You choose a date and duration on the platform and are matched with an individual cleaner, which suits tenants who want a straightforward hourly booking and are happy to set the scope themselves. Because the model is marketplace-based, the person who turns up is an independent cleaner rather than a company crew, so it is worth confirming a few things before handover day: whether cleaning equipment and products are brought or need to be supplied by you, how many hours a full end-of-tenancy scope will realistically take for your flat size, and whether the booking can be extended on the day if the inspection checklist is longer than expected. Helpling publishes its hourly rates on its site. For tenants with a short, well-defined list of tasks and their own vacuum and mop, the marketplace format can be a practical fit.
3. Urban Company: app-based home services marketplace
Urban Company is an app-based home services marketplace that lists cleaning alongside other home services. Bookings are made in the app, with service categories and time slots shown up front, which appeals to people who already use the app for other household tasks and want everything in one place. As with any marketplace, the cleaning is carried out by service professionals booked through the platform rather than by a single company crew, so check the service description carefully against your tenancy agreement: whether inside-cabinet wiping, window grilles, balcony and ceiling fans are part of the listed package or are add-ons, and whether a second visit is possible if the landlord’s agent asks for touch-ups. Urban Company publishes its rates on its site. It is a reasonable option for a condo unit where the scope is modest and you want app-based scheduling and payment in one place.
4. Luce: home services company covering cleaning and laundry
Luce is a home services company whose range covers cleaning, laundry and other household services, and it offers one-time cleaning sessions that can be used for a handover. The appeal is a single provider for several chores, which suits households that want to bundle a final laundry run or a general clean with the move-out. Luce publishes its rates on its site. When booking any one-time session for an end-of-tenancy inspection, confirm the number of cleaners and hours assigned, since a four-room flat that has been lived in for two years usually needs a crew of two to three for four to six hours rather than a single cleaner for three. Ask whether the session follows a handover checklist (cabinet interiors, window tracks, bathroom descaling, kitchen degreasing) or is a general tidy, because landlords and agents inspect against the former, not the latter.
5. Nimbus Homes: cleaning and housekeeping company
Nimbus Homes is a cleaning and housekeeping company that offers both recurring housekeeping and one-off cleaning sessions, and it lists move-in and move-out cleaning among its services. Being a company rather than a marketplace means a team is assigned rather than an individual freelancer, which many tenants prefer for a job with a hard deadline. Nimbus Homes publishes its rates on its site. As with every provider on this list, the practical questions are the same: is the quote for a fixed scope or a block of hours, does the team bring its own equipment, and what happens if the agent’s inspection flags items after the clean. If you are also moving into a new home that needs a move-in clean, ask whether the two jobs can be scheduled together so the crews and dates line up with your key handover and your furniture delivery.
6. Auntie Cleaner: home cleaning company
Auntie Cleaner is a home cleaning company offering one-time and recurring home cleaning, including sessions suited to moving house. It positions itself around domestic cleaning rather than commercial work, which keeps the service list simple for tenants who want a residential specialist. Auntie Cleaner publishes its rates on its site. For an end-of-tenancy booking, have your tenancy agreement’s cleaning clause in hand when you enquire: some agreements require professional cleaning with a receipt, some specify curtain cleaning or carpet shampooing, and some only ask that the unit be returned in the same condition as at handover. Match the quote to that clause rather than to a generic deep clean, and ask for the scope in writing so you can show the agent what was done. A receipt that names the company and the date is often all the landlord needs to release the deposit.
7. KMAC: cleaning company for residential and commercial work
KMAC is a cleaning company that handles both residential and commercial cleaning, which makes it a candidate for tenants leaving a home as well as businesses vacating an office or shop unit. The commercial side means the company is used to working to a landlord’s or building manager’s reinstatement checklist, a format that transfers well to a residential handover. KMAC publishes its rates on its site. If you are vacating a commercial unit, ask whether the clean can be scheduled after the contractors finish stripping out fittings, since post-reinstatement dust is closer to a post-renovation clean than a normal end-of-tenancy job. For a home, the same checks apply as with the other companies here: fixed scope versus hours, equipment supplied, and whether a return visit is possible if the inspection raises items. Book a weekday slot where you can, as weekends fill first.
What does a move-out cleaning include for HDB and condo handover?
A move-out clean is a top-to-bottom reset of an empty or nearly empty unit, done to the standard an agent inspects against. For an HDB flat or condo it normally covers: kitchen cabinets and drawers wiped inside and out, hob and backsplash degreased, sink and taps descaled; bathrooms scrubbed including tiles, grout, shower screen, toilet and basin, with limescale removed from fittings; wardrobes and built-in cabinets cleared of dust inside; windows cleaned on the inside, with tracks and grilles vacuumed and wiped; ceiling fans, light fittings, switches and skirting dusted; and floors vacuumed and mopped throughout, including the balcony and service yard. Sureclean follows the same checklist for move-in cleaning (from $370*), which is why many clients book both ends of the move together. Curtain cleaning, carpet shampooing or a tile and grout machine scrub are separate services, added only if your tenancy agreement or landlord asks for them.
How much does move-out cleaning cost in Singapore?
Sureclean’s move-out and end-of-tenancy cleaning starts from $370* for a smaller unit, and most HDB jobs come in between $475 and $525* depending on flat type and condition. Condo and landed units are quoted by size, since a three-bedroom condo with two bathrooms and a balcony is a different job from a studio. Three things move the price: how long the unit was occupied (grease and limescale build up over years), whether the unit is empty on the day (a furnished unit takes longer and limits what can be reached), and any add-ons the landlord requires, such as curtain cleaning at $35* per panel or a rug clean from $150*. Prices are before GST and are confirmed in writing on WhatsApp before booking, with 10% off for first-time customers. For a full breakdown by service, see the cleaning prices page.
How far ahead should I book end-of-tenancy cleaning?
Book seven to ten days ahead for a weekday slot and two weeks ahead if you need a Saturday, a month-end or a date just before a public holiday, when movers, cleaners and agents are all busy. The ideal sequence is: movers clear the unit, the cleaning crew comes in the same afternoon or the next morning, and the agent inspects within a day or two so the flat does not collect dust between the clean and the handover. Tell the cleaning company your inspection date when you book so the crew is scheduled as close to it as possible. If the landlord’s agent raises items after the clean, Sureclean returns to re-clean them rather than leaving you to argue over the deposit, so keep the receipt and the written scope. Tenants on a tight timeline can send the key handover date and flat type on WhatsApp +65 6983 9523 and the team will confirm the nearest available slot.

When you do not need a professional move-out clean
If your tenancy agreement only asks that the unit be returned clean and tidy, you lived there under a year, and the kitchen and bathrooms have no grease or limescale build-up, a thorough DIY clean with a borrowed vacuum can pass inspection. A professional clean becomes worth it when the agreement specifies professional cleaning with a receipt, when the unit has been occupied for two years or more, or when your deposit is larger than the cost of the clean and you would rather not risk a deduction.
