California Move-Out Cleaning: What Landlords Can Charge

A California landlord can only charge you for the cleaning needed to bring the unit back to how clean it was when you moved in (Civil Code § 1950.5). They have 21 days to return your deposit with an itemized statement, must include receipts when deductions top $125, and since April 1, 2025 must photograph the unit before and after any cleaning they charge for.

Sacramento Bulky Item Pickup: Free Options vs Hiring a Hauler

City of Sacramento residents get two free household junk pickups a year (February through October) plus free appliance and e-waste pickups, booked through 311. Unincorporated Sacramento County, Elk Grove, Folsom, Citrus Heights and Rancho Cordova have their own programs. Free pickup is the better deal when you can get everything to the curb and can wait; a hauler makes sense when you can’t.
