For move-in cleaning, you need to check hygiene inside cabinets, operation of the range hood, and sink drainage. The focus is on clearing dust and protective film left behind from renovation, and thoroughly disinfecting the refrigerator interior to ensure all equipment is ready.
Preparation for move-in cleaning
Although a new kitchen may look clean, it may still have residual renovation dust and protective packaging. When preparing cleaning tools, choose gentle neutral detergents and prepare microfiber cloths for different surfaces.
Key steps for kitchen cleaning
Please wear gloves during cleaning and ensure good ventilation.
- Empty cabinets: Thoroughly clean the interior of cabinets to remove dust and debris left from the renovation.
- Refrigerator cleaning: Check for stains inside from refrigeration, wipe with a mild detergent, and ventilate thoroughly.
- Sink and faucet: Remove water stains and scale, and ensure the drain pipe is clear.
- Range hood: Confirm the vent is clear of obstructions and wipe the exterior surface clean.
Material and surface care
Do not use rough steel wool to wipe shiny stainless steel or kitchen cabinet finishes to avoid scratches. All cleaning agents must be diluted according to factory instructions and never mixed arbitrarily.
Inspection and acceptance
After cleaning, check electrical switches and sockets for residual water, and ensure all components are functioning normally and are completely wiped dry.
