Pressed for Time specialises in March Out cleaning for your military quarters. The Brize Norton RAF base serves 5,800 military personnel and their families, all beholden to the exacting standards of the military. As an occupant of Service Families Accommodation (SFA) it is your responsibility to ensure the property is ready for inspection by the Local Accommodation Officer before you leave.

 

Moving home is well known to be one the most stressful situations to cope with. Added to the pressure of moving is the stress of being posted to a new town and taking your skills to unfamiliar surroundings with unfamiliar people.

 

In preparation for your March Out and to ease the pressure of the move, we ensure your home meets those exact cleanliness standards, promising nothing is left uncleaned or unchecked, protecting your insurance and preventing any post-move charges.

​
