There are a lot of facets to consider when moving from an old apartment to a new one. These may include but are not limited to; proximity to central business district CBD where the latest events are happening, the need for large space, present neighbourhood characteristics, or you are simply just tired of your landlord and you feel like
moving.

However, having considered these facets, the big question is what should you consider when moving into your new home?

2. CLEAN BEFORE MOVE DAY

You never know what went down there, when it comes to cleaning you can’t be too certain. A proper deep cleaning, pest removal, disinfecting and fumigation process is absolutely advice, staying safe in good health is paramount.

Deep cleaning should not be taken with levity, it is an important step in preventing the spread of viral infections. Deep cleaning is not like regular cleaning: wiping down surfaces and cleaning windows, sweeping and washing the floor with soap and water, deep cleaning on the other hand is more disruptive and specific.

Typically, deep cleaning involves using strong chemicals that clears out a room before it can be occupied again. Disinfection services take things a step further. No cleaning system is 100% perfect but deep cleaning adds a layer of safety that regular cleaning cannot offer.
