How to keep your model nice and clean?

How do you guys keep your work clean while modeling? I happen to mess up stuff when I move vertices and such. Is there a way to move vertices on the grid properly, a kind of "snap to grid" function or other methods to make it easier?

(of course I try to move vertices manually as seldom as possible, but sometimes I just have to D:~)

dont try and align your vertices to a grid when modeling, only the ones that need to line up with the floor or other walls in your map.

that was the first barrier i had to get over when learning to model, to disreguard the grid. its evil.

when you are dragging verts around, try to use the x,y,z restrict...so you can only drag x, or only drag y etc..makes it much easier to move them around. you only really need the grid if you a building a prop of some sort, and you want equal dimensions, even then i only use numbers not the grid (snap to grid really lacks in 3dsmax)
