What do you charge for cleaning fees when tenants move out?

Hey everyone, 

I was curious if anyone had a list of what they charge for cleaning fees when a tenant moves out? Do you have an itemized list if a tenant moves out and leaves things dirty such as?

Stove - $50

Fridge - $75

Etc

Maybe you all just hire a cleaning person instead and let that make the determination? I have heard of landlords having itemized lists, and am looking to include a list in my lease for move out. I am slowly accumulating units, and feel this would be ideal for the future. Thank you for any insight or even a list you may be able to provide. If anyone is kind enough to send something like that over that would very helpful.

Thanks for any help in whatever manner you can!

Ben

I have a list, but it's only an estimate. Cleaning an oven sometimes takes 15 minutes and other times takes an hour. A light bulb costs $1.50 but some cost $10.

If you connect and PM me, I can share my list for you to use as a template.
