March is just about upon us and that means many people will be thinking about spring cleaning. Even though winter is still going to have its way with us during this month, it’s a good opportunity to begin planning what you’re going to do in the spring season.
Here are a number of spring cleaning tips that can help you get a great start on cleaning and making your home as healthy, comfortable, and safe as possible.
Spring Cleaning Tip #1: Focus on one room at a time.
When the spring season rolls around, many people have a tendency to jump into spring cleaning with both feet first. They open up their entire home and try to clean everything at once. Soon, they are overwhelmed with the task they suddenly taken on.
It’s best to start with one room at a time.
Spring Cleaning Tip #2: Empty each room.
When you’re starting with one room at a time, empty as many items out of the room as possible. This means clearing out the closet, taking any movable furniture out, emptying anything out from under the bed, and more. You don’t have to move dressers, the bed, or other large furniture items.
Spring Cleaning Tip #3: Clean from the top down.
Start wiping down the ceilings and the walls, all of the fixtures, including ceiling lights and ceiling fans, and then all of the furniture from the top down.
Spring Cleaning Tip #4: Vacuum everything.
You want to vacuum all of your carpeting and floors. You should move all of your furniture out of the way so you can vacuum behind and under everything.
When it comes to cleaning your carpets, it’s best to hire a professional carpet cleaning service, but you want to take care of all of those other tips first to maximize the cleanliness and helpfulness of your home for the spring and summer season ahead.
