Move-Out Checklist

Track move-out tasks completion

The Move-Out Checklist Tool from Tool World is designed to streamline the moving out process for tenants. Moving can be a stressful experience, but with our user-friendly checklist, you can ensure that every detail is addressed. As you prepare to leave your rental property, simply input tasks related to cleaning, repairs, and documentation. Each task can be checked off as you complete them, helping you stay organized and reduce the risk of overlooking important steps. Utilizing the Move-Out Checklist Tool not only aids in staying organized but also serves as a fantastic way to communicate clarity with your landlord. Completing tasks like cleaning appliances, patching holes, or updating your address can all be tracked, ensuring that you meet your obligations and give yourself the best chance of having your security deposit returned in full. By having a clear list of tasks, you can feel confident and less stressed about the move-out process.

Inputs

Provide the following 5 values to run the Move-Out Checklist:

  • Deep Cleaning Done? [select] (required)
  • Utilities Notified? [select] (required)
  • Keys Returned? [select] (required)
  • Meter Readings Taken? [select] (required)
  • Address Changed? [select] (required)

What it calculates

This tool returns:

  • Complete (%) — primary result
  • Tasks Done (/5)
  • Status

Worked example

For the sample inputs below:

  • Deep Cleaning Done?: 1
  • Utilities Notified?: 1
  • Keys Returned?: 1
  • Meter Readings Taken?: 1
  • Address Changed?: 1

the Move-Out Checklist produces:

  • Complete: 100%
  • Tasks Done: 5/5
  • Status: Ready

How it works

The result is derived through the following steps:

  1. complete = parseInt(cleaning) + parseInt(utilities) + parseInt(keysReturned) + parseInt(meterReadings) + parseInt(addressChanged)
  2. percent = (complete / 5) * 100
  3. status = complete === 5 ? 'Ready' : 'Incomplete'
