I would put him in a carrier if you have one, put plenty of substrate in so he can burrow down & feel safe while you do the clean.
If possible keep a little of the old substrate from the cage to scatter around so you can replace a little of his scent, if he has a wheel & toys maybe don't do them at the same time unless they are in a really bad state.

Thank you so much for your concern! I will be getting him a bigger home soon from what I’ve read the one he has is too small. And thank you for the advice I really appreciate it!
