Move-out wall and trim cleaning including smudge removal and door detail.

Walls and trim collect more scuffs and smudges than people realize — especially in homes with children or pets.


Clean Ways gently wipes walls, trims, doors, and handles to restore them. We avoid harsh chemicals and focus on safe, effective cleaning. Whether it’s fingerprints near light switches or shoe marks on trim, we take care of the little things.


In Colorado Springs, winter coats brushing the walls near entryways create subtle scuffs — something we clean often during move-outs.

Why This Guide Exists

Most renters lose money on their move-out for one reason:

They don’t know what inspectors actually check.

Tiny details — blinds, baseboards, oven racks, window tracks, trash residue — cause most inspection failures.

Clean Ways created this guide so renters, realtors, and property managers have a clear, honest, inspection-ready standard for both Colorado Springs and San Diego.

We also provide trusted move-out cleaning support for San Diego residents.
