- Usual return clock: 14 days.
- Ordinary wear and tear is not deductible.
- Ask for a written forwarding address and record whether keys were returned.

Frequently asked questions
Plain-language answers about Arizona move-out checklist papers. LeaseGen.io is not a law firm. Confirm current statutes before anyone signs.
- What is a move-out checklist?
- It records unit condition when the tenant surrenders possession. Use it alongside the move-in list before you send the deposit accounting. A landlord may not demand security, including prepaid rent, of more than one-and-a-half months’ rent (A.R.S. § 33-1321). Nonrefundable fees must be labeled in writing or they are refundable. After the tenancy ends and the tenant returns possession, the unused deposit and an itemized list are generally due within 14 days, excluding weekends and legal holidays. A move-in condition form is required.
- When is the deposit due back in Arizona?
- Unused deposit money is generally due within 14 days after the tenancy ends, with an itemized list of lawful deductions (A.R.S. § 33-1321). Ask for a forwarding address in writing.
- Is the move-out checklist the same as deposit itemization?
- No. The checklist documents condition. Itemization is the formal accounting that states what you kept from the deposit and why. You may need both.
