Moving Cleaning Shaftesbury
Moving is stressful enough without scrubbing kitchens, cleaning white goods or tackling bathrooms on top of the packing. A professional moving clean takes one big job off your list.
Toughmuck cleans properties before you move in or after you move out, across Shaftesbury and the surrounding area.

Moving in or out of a property in Shaftesbury?
Whether you're leaving your old home or getting a new one ready, the easiest time to clean is while the property is empty. With no furniture or boxes in the way, our team can reach floors, cupboards, wardrobes and appliances properly.
Our moving cleans in Shaftesbury cover bathrooms, floors, limescale removal, white goods, built-in wardrobes and detailed kitchen cleaning, including hobs, ovens and sinks. You focus on the move; we'll leave the property clean and fresh.
Shaftesbury, the hilltop town in north Dorset, and the villages around it — Motcombe, Fontmell Magna and beyond — are all within our cleaning area.
Shaftesbury combines period houses and cottages in and around the centre with newer estates on the edges. Older homes often need careful, detailed cleaning around fireplaces, beams and high ceilings, while the newer estates bring end of tenancy and moving cleans.
Why book Toughmuck for your moving clean?
Moving day rarely leaves time for a proper clean. Our team has more than 25 years' experience and brings its own professional products and equipment, so there's nothing extra for you to buy or keep unpacked.
We'll fit the clean around your dates — before the van arrives at your new home, or once it has left your old one — and give you a clear quote before we start.

the boxes arrive.
Moving out, or moving in?
Moving out? A thorough clean once your belongings have gone leaves the property ready for buyers, landlords or the next occupants — so you leave on a clean note.
Moving in? Having your new home deep cleaned before the furniture arrives means you start with fresh kitchens, bathrooms and cupboards rather than someone else's dust. We can also clean both properties as part of the same move.
What will Toughmuck do for you?
We'll work through the empty property room by room — kitchen and appliances, bathrooms, floors, cupboards and storage — so it's ready for whoever moves in next, whether that's you or someone else.
Everything ready for moving day
People moving home across Dorset use us to take cleaning off their checklist. Here's what a moving clean in Shaftesbury can include.
Kitchen & appliances
Hobs, ovens, sinks and worktops cleaned in detail, along with cupboards inside and out. Oven cleaning can be added to any moving clean.
Fridge-freezers & white goods
Fridge-freezers, washing machines and other appliances are included in the service, so they're clean and ready for the next household.
Bathrooms & limescale
Baths, showers, sinks and toilets cleaned and disinfected, with limescale removed from taps, screens and tiles.
Floors & carpets
Floors cleaned throughout the property. If the carpets need more than a vacuum, professional carpet cleaning can be added.
Moving clean questions answered.
Is it better to clean before furniture arrives?
Where possible, yes. An empty property gives our cleaners easy access to floors, cupboards, wardrobes and the spaces where furniture usually stands.
If that isn't possible, tell us what will still be in place and we'll plan around it.
Can you clean both properties?
Yes. Speak to the team about cleaning your old and new property as part of the same move.
Just give us both postcodes and your moving dates when you ask for a quote.
Do you bring the equipment?
Yes. The team uses its own professional cleaning products and equipment, so there's nothing for you to leave out of the boxes.
All you need to arrange is access to the property on the day.
How long does it take?
It depends on the size of the property and its condition. A one-bedroom flat takes far less time than a five-bedroom house.
We'll talk through the property and give you an estimated time with your quote.
If you're working to a sale completion, move date or tenancy handover in Shaftesbury, tell us the date when you ask for a quote and we'll plan the clean around it.
