You may want to consider doing a deep clean once you get into your new space and having a few cleaning supplies available is super handy. Consider bring the following with you: glass cleaner, paper towels, sponge, all-purpose cleaner, rags, and Clorox wipes or other cleaning wipe variation. Some larger items you can bring with you is a broom, mop, and vacuum so you can do a quick run through before your space fills up with boxes.
