How to Prepare for Your Apartment Handover (État des Lieux) in Geneva

AK Déménagements — Professional moving and cleaning services in Geneva for apartment handover

Moving out of an apartment in Geneva? The handover inspection (état des lieux de sortie) can be strict, and real estate agencies (régies) inspect every corner before returning your security deposit.

Here is a quick checklist to ensure a seamless move-out:

1. Deep Cleaning is Essential Windows, shutters, oven, kitchen hood, and bathroom tiles must be thoroughly cleaned.

2. Fix Minor Damage Fill small nail holes in walls, replace burnt lightbulbs, and fix loose cabinet handles.

3. Furniture & Belongings Clearance Everything not included in the original lease must be removed. Old furniture or bulky waste cannot be left in common areas.
