Spring cleaning is a tradition to welcome the refreshing season with a fresh and clean home. It is the perfect way to shake off the winter blues and welcome the summer yellows that come with warm sunshine. However, spring cleaning is a huge task and extremely overwhelming. You are left with the thoughts of “Where do I begin?” and “How do I ensure that I don’t miss a single spot?”
Well, stop feeling overwhelmed because we have got your back with the ultimate spring cleaning checklist that will effortlessly refresh your home in the right way. Let’s get started!
The Ultimate Spring Cleaning Checklist For Your Home
A spring cleaning checklist is a roadmap to refreshing and revitalizing your home. Let us help you with the ultimate checklist without any further ado.
Begin with Decluttering Your Space
Winter leads to a lot of clutter as you lazily pile up things. So, you must look at your entire home and declutter the space. Look at every single room, closets, cabinets, drawers, everything. Go through all the stuff cluttered and get rid of the things that serve you no use. If you’re confused, ask whether I used it in the last few months. If the answer is “No,” toss it out, or you could recycle it if possible.
Dust Everything (Yes, Everything!)
Dust is sneaky by nature and will find its way into even the smallest corners of your home. So, make sure that you dust your entire house, not missing even a single surface. You could create a list if you are worried about forgetting some spots. Be sure to include ceiling fans, light fixtures, windows, blinds, sills, baseboards, electric switches, appliances, furniture, shelves, picture frames, and other decor items. Also, make it a point to move the furniture and clean it behind and under it. The same goes for electrical appliances.
Freshen Up Your Floors
Once you have cleaned the surfaces and removed the dust that settled on them, it’s time to pay attention to your floors and carpets. Winter leads to dirt and grime settling on the floors and carpets, making them slippery and dirty. So, freshen them up by vacuuming your carpets and rugs and mopping the floors and tiles. For deeper cleaning, you can also choose steam washing for carpets, pressure washing, disinfection, and lamination for the floors.
Revive Your Kitchen
The kitchen is the most used place in the house and thus prone to getting dirtier than the other spots. So, cleaning the kitchen is an essential part of your spring cleaning checklist. Make sure that you scrub the countertops, backsplash, and sinks. Also, wipe the kitchen cabinets both inside and outside. It is equally important to clean the fridge, dishwasher, and microwave to get rid of any food residues and lurking odors.
Refresh Bedrooms & Living Areas
Your bedroom and living area are where you spend a lot of your time. So, it is equally essential to refresh these spaces by thorough cleaning. Consider rotating your mattress and vacuuming it to eliminate dust, dirt, and foul odors. Do the same with the carpets in your bedroom, too. Along with it, wash all the bedding, including the bedsheets, pillows, and comforters. Replace the heavy comforters with lighter ones. Clean under and behind the bed and furniture, and wipe down all the other decor items and equipment in the room and living areas, including nightstands and lamps.
Bathroom Deep Clean
Bathrooms are breeding grounds for mold and mildew growth, which can lead to strong and foul odors. So, deep clean your washroom by scrubbing the sinks, tubs, and showers and disinfecting the toilets. Also, wash the shower curtains and bath mats and wipe down the mirrors and other glass surfaces. Take the time to organize the bathroom storage as well so that you can dispose of expired toiletries and stock up on fresh ones.
Don’t Forget the Windows & Doors
It is often easy to overlook the doors and windows during cleaning. However, winter leaves behind smudges, stains, and grime that give the doors and windows an unclean and wary appearance. They also block the refreshing sunlight from entering the home. So, clean the doors and windows inside out to ensure no dust and grime buildup left behind.
