How tidy should it be? - house valuation

[Matilda2013]

I've got a booking for a house valuation on Tuesday. Do they look into cupboards etc? Or just the surface of the house that needs to be clean and tidy?

I'd just tidy away the obvious things and make the house look as spacious and well cared for, as possible.
Once instructed, a good EA will advise you on staging before taking the photos.
