National Cleaning Week is Here!
Spring is almost here and with that brings spring cleaning! Conquer your spring-cleaning checklist during National Cleaning Week which begins the 4th Sunday of March and National Old Stuff Day on March 2nd. Every now and again our lives get so chaotic that we don’t have time to clean and tidy up our homes. Celebrate National Cleaning Week by removing all the stains, collecting all the dust and shining all the faucets, cabinets and furniture. We have compiled a list of spring-cleaning tips to help you stay organized and tidy up your house.
House Cleaning Tips
Tackle National Cleaning Week by staying organized and creating a schedule. Cleaning a dirty house can be extremely overwhelming and time consuming. Make a list of everything you want to clean and on what day. By breaking up your to-do list into steps, you’ll be able to focus on areas that should be higher priority.
Clean One Room at a Time
By cleaning one room at a time you won’t be mindlessly scrubbing and polishing everything in sight at once. Focus all your energy on one room at a time and don’t leave until you have accomplished cleaning the entire room. By designating certain rooms and spaces to clean on specific days your daunting list will seem to shrink. One day could be for the kitchen and living room, another day for bedrooms and bathrooms, and another for other rooms like the garage and basement.
Clean Top to Bottom
Work your way top to the bottom when you start to clean each room so that you’re able to save time and clean all hidden areas. Start high and work your way to the ground so you don’t ignore the dust on the ceiling fan blades, dangling lights, air vents and anything else hanging. From there, start washing the blinds, doorframes, windows, pictures on wall, etc. Once you get to the floor, move on to wiping all baseboards, vacuuming rugs, cleaning up cobwebs and all the extra dust and grime you may find.
Move Furniture!
Don’t be afraid to move around the furniture to find all the junk, dust bunnies, and dirt that has accumulated over time. Move all the couches, and look under your fridge, because most likely it’s been too long since you have cleaned these areas. Avoid missing hard-to-reach places and hidden space by simply moving your furniture. Then begin to remove all scuffs on leather or jewelry, clean off all the dirt, grime and fingerprints on walls and items, deep clean your toilet, remove all dust, polish all your home surfaces and clean all your mirrors.
