Move-In Cleaning
For apartments, offices and restaurants in Airport Area: trained cleaners, professional equipment and a clear price agreed before work starts.
Booking move-in cleaning in Airport Area should be straightforward, and Dhaka Cleaners keeps it that way. Tell us what needs attention, roughly how big the space is and any rules your building has, and we plan around them: a trained team sized to the job, suitable equipment and a time that suits you. Local traffic, parking and access are factored in as well, so the team can arrive ready to start at the agreed time.
The Airport Area covers the neighbourhoods and roads around Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Kurmitola, between Uttara and Nikunja and Khilkhet. It mixes homes with offices, hotels, eateries and businesses that serve travellers, all exposed to heavy traffic on the Airport Road. We clean homes and commercial premises across the area, including quick turnarounds before a family member flies in.
Airport Area is a mixed residential and commercial area, and the property types common here (apartments, offices and restaurants) each bring their own requirements for move-in cleaning. A family flat needs work planned around daily life; a workplace usually needs it done out of hours; older buildings may have narrow stairs or no lift for equipment. We ask which of these applies to you, so the team, the tools and the timing are right from the start.
A mixed area of apartment buildings, offices, hotels, restaurants and shops along and near the Airport Road, with residential streets set back from the main road.
Heavy traffic dust on glass, balconies, entrances and floors is the main challenge, so commercial premises benefit from frequent glass and floor cleaning. Homes often need a deep clean timed around travel, such as before a relative arrives from abroad or after a long absence.
For homes in Airport Area, the process is built around your household: we agree priorities with you, work through the space methodically and finish with a walk-through.
We check each room with you, note existing stains or damage and agree priorities.
Ceiling fans, light fittings, cornices, door tops and high shelves are dusted and wiped.
Cabinets inside and out, counters, wall tiles, sink and fittings are degreased and cleaned.
Tiles, grout, taps, showers, toilets, basins and mirrors are descaled and sanitised.
Wardrobes, doors, switchboards, window frames, glass and grills are cleaned room by room.
Floors and balconies are scrubbed and mopped, then we walk through the property with you.
While we clean, you can focus on packing, transport and getting utilities connected.
Pest control and water tank cleaning can be arranged around the same move-in date, subject to team availability.
Every cupboard, drawer and surface is clean before your belongings go in.
Cleaning an empty property reaches places that furniture will cover for years.
Equipment: We work with vacuum cleaners, extension poles for fans and high fittings, floor brushes or a scrubbing machine suited to the floor type, and microfibre cloths.
Starting from ৳ 5,000 per property (minimum)
For homes in Airport Area, move-in cleaning starts from ৳ 5,000 per property (minimum). The final price depends mainly on the number of rooms or the floor area and the current condition, and it is confirmed with you before the team is booked.
Airport Area sits close to Uttara, Nikunja, Khilkhet and Cantonment, and Dhaka Cleaners plans work across these areas together. Homes can usually choose daytime or weekend slots, while shops and offices often prefer early-morning or after-hours visits; both are offered where available. Same-day service may be possible, subject to team availability, so call or WhatsApp to check.
Cleaning timed around a flight arrival can usually be arranged with a few days' notice; same-day visits are subject to team availability.
Main-road traffic around the airport can be slow at peak times, so we allow extra travel time and confirm the exact entrance and parking before arriving. Restricted airport premises need permits arranged by the client.
Common questions about move-in cleaning in Airport Area.
Often, yes, if you book a few days ahead. Tell us the arrival date and we will schedule the clean as close to it as team availability allows, so the home is fresh when they arrive.
Pest control and water tank cleaning can often be arranged around the same move-in date, subject to team availability. Pest treatment usually works best once cleaning is finished, and we will advise on the right order.
The price is agreed before work starts. Payment is usually made after the job is finished and you or your representative have checked the property.
It is best if someone who knows the property is there at the start to agree priorities and at the end to check the work. You do not need to supervise the team in between. If nobody can be present, speak to us beforehand so we can agree access and sign-off.
