- Wipe down walls and woodwork – don’t forget the top of skirting boards, window sills and internal windows.
- Light fittings, ledge and tops of doors also need to be dust free.

On moving out day:
- You must be out of the property and return all keys to the Let Leeds office before 11am on the date that your contract ends.
- The best (and easiest!) thing to do is to get your property professionally cleaned. We can offer preferential rates through our contractors, so get in touch.
- Make sure you have fulfilled your list of responsibilities. We have compiled a full list of your responsibilities as a Tenant here.
- Log any maintenance issues on FIXFLO. You can do this by clicking here.
- Remove all your possessions and rubbish from the property.
- Notify all the relevant parties of your new address.
- Contact all your utility companies and request final bills to cover up to (and including) the last day of your Tenancy.
- Re-direct post to your new address.
Following these steps will ensure that moving out of your property runs smoothly and that you’ll get your full deposit back – the beers will be on you!
