I suggest buying a bunch of cleaning supplies right up front. If I move into a new apartment (which I've had to do three times in the past few years) and don't have a broom, It will take me months to remember to buy one. In one apartment, I remembered to bring a broom, but not a dustpan, so we just sweapt the dust under the fridge. Another time, I remember having to "mop" with two wet towels under my feet. It was actually pretty fun. All those cleaning supplies, sanitizers, and such can be really helpful to have around right from the start.
But then again, some people [read college boys] like things really dirty.
