- All belongings must be out of the building prior to check-out.
- This also includes removal of staples, adhesives, tape on walls/ windows, etc.
- Remove debris from drawers and floor. Sweep and vacuum if your building has them available at the front desk.
- All trash must be removed from the building and placed into the dumpsters outside. You may obtain trash bags at the front desk.
- Failure to properly clean your room or remove your trash from the building will result in charges to your student account.
- You should coordinate the cleaning of the room with your room/ suitemate(s) to avoid any unexpected charges.
- Place your key (if applicable) in the envelope, then seal and sign the envelope.
- If currently issues a Temporary Lockout Key/Card, please place these items in the Check Out envelope as well.

All residence hall rooms, bathrooms and common areas will be inspected by Residential Life staff after all students have checked out. As stated in the license agreement, students may receive additional damage/cleaning charges applied to their MyNevada accounts after these inspections. It is in students' best interests to ensure the condition of the room at check-out is the same as when they checked in to avoid any charges.
