The Kitchen

Let’s start with the kitchen. This area of your home likely experiences the most liquid spills and other sorts of mess, thus you might need to dedicate a little extra time to scrub every surface.

Remember to wipe down the cabinets, deep clean the dishwasher and microwave, remove debris from the toaster, and use lemon or vinegar to clean the sink.

This is also a great time to remove expired food from the fridge and freezer, then thoroughly wipe them down.

The Bedrooms

Your bedrooms also need plenty of attention. The key is to start by stripping your beds. Vacuum your mattresses, vacuum the floors using baking soda, launder your curtains, tumble dry the pillows, and launder your bed linens and bed skirts.

Spring cleaning is also a great time of year to totally clean out and reorganize your dresser drawers.

The Bathrooms

Moving on to the bathrooms, start by sanitizing your sinks, drains, and faucets. Next, sanitize your showers, bathtubs, and toothbrush holders, and remove expired medications and cosmetics from the counter or medicine cabinet.

Don’t forget to clean the baseboards, wipe down the doors, knobs, walls, and clean the light fixtures.

The Laundry Room

In the laundry room, you’d be wise to start by emptying the dryer lint trap and clean the vent. Deep clean the washing machine and mop the floor under the washer and dryer.

Then go ahead and wipe down the exterior of the washer and dryer, and clean the light fixtures.

The Living Room

The living room typically requires a lot of dusting because of all the furniture. Vacuum the floor and your curtains, and then clean the inside and outside of all windows, and dust your lampshades.

It’s also a good idea to dust all electronics, sanitize remote controls, dust the ceiling fans, and launder your throw pillows.

These are tasks that an experienced cleaning company can take care of quickly and easily.

The Garage

Once you’ve moved on to the garage, start by removing as much clutter as possible. Take the time to organize whatever’s left, then sweep the floor, clean the windows and the garage door, and change the bulbs in the door opener if necessary.
