Handover Cleaning Service in Zürich: Spotless Standards, Guaranteed Return of Deposit


Moving out of your apartment in Zürich comes with more than just packing and saying goodbye—it also means handing over your property in flawless condition. Landlords in Switzerland have very high expectations when it comes to cleanliness, and any deviation can result in deposit deductions or delays.

That’s where Züriclean’s handover cleaning service in Zürich becomes essential. We provide comprehensive deep-cleaning tailored specifically for tenancy handovers, with a 100% handover guarantee—ensuring your apartment meets all inspection standards without stress.

Why Professional Handover Cleaning in Zürich is Non-Negotiable

In Zürich, every detail counts when returning a rental property. From limescale in the shower to fingerprints on window frames, nothing goes unnoticed during the handover inspection. If the property isn’t handed over in pristine condition, landlords have the legal right to bring in their own cleaning company—and charge you the cost.

At Züriclean, we take over the entire cleaning responsibility so you don’t have to worry about any last-minute issues. Whether your apartment is in the heart of Zürich Old Town, near Bahnhof Enge, or in trendy Zürich West, our professional handover cleaning team ensures your apartment looks just as it did the day you moved in—or better.


What Is Handover Cleaning with a Guarantee?

Handover cleaning is a specialized form of deep cleaning done at the end of a rental contract. It covers every corner of the apartment and is followed by an in-person inspection with the landlord or property manager.

With Züriclean’s handover guarantee, we offer:

  • Presence during the handover appointment
  • Immediate rectification of any cleaning complaints
  • No extra costs for additional cleaning requests during inspection
  • Support in English, German, Spanish, or Italian for smooth communication

This service is designed to give you complete confidence that your home meets Swiss handover standards—and your deposit stays intact.


Our Handover Cleaning Services in Zürich Cover:

  • Handover cleaning with inspection-day support
  • Full property deep cleaning (kitchen, bathroom, windows, etc.)
  • Final cleaning tailored to landlord or agency requirements
  • Apartment/flat cleaning for handovers in any district of Zürich
  • Custom solutions for furnished and unfurnished homes
  • Exit-list based cleaning and documentation support
  • Pre-inspection walkthroughs and checklist verification

From newly built apartments in Leimbach to heritage buildings in Seefeld or lake-view residences in Wollishofen, Züriclean provides professional handover cleaning throughout Zürich.

What to Expect from Züriclean’s Handover Cleaning in Zürich

Our expert cleaners follow a detailed, room-by-room checklist developed according to common Zürich landlord expectations. This includes:

  • Kitchen: Degreasing ovens, disinfecting surfaces, deep-cleaning inside cabinets
  • Bathrooms: Descaling taps, polishing tiles, scrubbing grout lines
  • Windows: Inside-out glass cleaning, frame detailing, and sill wiping
  • Floors and Walls: Vacuuming, mopping, spot-cleaning, and baseboard dusting
  • Balconies/Storage Rooms: Clearing cobwebs, sweeping, and surface cleaning
  • Fixtures and Fittings: Cleaning light switches, handles, and radiators

With our handover guarantee, if anything is flagged during the inspection, we resolve it on the spot—no added charges, no stress.

Why Not DIY? Why Professional Handover Cleaning in Zürich Is the Smarter Choice

Many tenants consider cleaning the apartment themselves, only to find that their efforts fall short of Swiss expectations. Without industrial-grade tools, materials, and training, it’s easy to miss something critical—which could cost you your deposit.

At Züriclean, our teams are highly trained and well-coordinated. We clean efficiently and thoroughly, assigning experts to specific zones. Our reputation across Zürich is built on precise execution, quality assurance, and dependable results.

Avoid Hidden Costs and Last-Minute Delays

If your apartment doesn’t pass inspection, your landlord may hire a cleaning service—often at premium prices—and deduct the cost from your deposit. Worse, delays in handover can create scheduling issues for the next tenant and damage your rental history.

With Züriclean, you avoid that risk entirely. Our pricing is upfront, our services are transparent, and our team is committed to delivering spotless results—every single time.

Prepare for Your Zürich Apartment Handover Like a Pro

Here’s how to ensure your handover is successful:

  • Empty the Apartment: Remove all personal belongings and trash
  • Submit the Exit List: Send us the agency's checklist so we can clean accordingly
  • Fix Minor Damages: Patch holes, replace bulbs, tighten loose fittings
  • Clean Extras: Chimneys, cellars, or blinds may require additional attention
  • Confirm Insurance Coverage: Liability or pet insurance may be helpful for any damages
  • Be Present at the Handover: Or appoint a reliable handover agent to represent you
  • Bring Documents: Rental contract and move-in report to clarify responsibilities
