Spring is right around the corner, and your home may be due for a deep clean, so we’ve compiled a spring cleaning checklist. We’ve broken it down room by room to help you tackle this annual spring feat. Deep cleaning your home regularly can help you stay on top of larger maintenance issues down the road.
First you will want to go through all of your clothing, food, toys, etc. You’ll want to have a bin for garbage, donation, and keep. Sort through everything to get rid of any unneeded items to eliminate any additional clutter. Once you tackle this you can get started on the next phase. Before tackling spring cleaning it’s a good idea to make sure you have all the supplies necessary. Grab cleaning supplies from your local supermarket or dollar store.
