Spring cleaning is the one time of the year when many of us perform a deep cleaning of our homes. While we may vacuum, clean the countertops, and do the laundry on a regular basis all year round, when was the last time that you cleaned on top of the refrigerator or inside of the oven? Spring cleaning is the time to tackle these not-so-commonly cleaned areas to ensure that your home isn’t hiding any dirt or grime.
In today’s blog post, we are going to provide you with a few tips to make spring cleaning easier.

Make a Detailed List for Each Room
The best way to ensure that everything gets done during spring cleaning is to make a list for each room. Write down every task that you want done and get as detailed as you need to, especially if a family member is going to be working from your list as well. Make sure to include regular cleaning tasks as well as deep cleaning projects so you can have a clear idea of how much work you have ahead of you.
Create a Schedule
After you’ve created a list of cleaning tasks broken down room-by-room, you can schedule out the cleaning tasks. If you have a significant other and children helping, this is a great time to decide who can handle each task and how long it will take. While it’s nice to think that spring cleaning can all get done on one saturday afternoon, chances are, it will take a bit longer than that depending on the size of your home. Give yourself an entire week or maybe two consecutive weekends to ensure that you have enough time for every cleaning project.
Start By Decluttering
When you are ready to get started cleaning, choose the room you’ll begin in and start by decluttering. Anything that is lying around, pick it up and place it in the area where it belongs. Decluttering may also help you to throw away some unneeded items as well.
Clean Top to Bottom
When you begin cleaning your home, it’s essential that you start at the top and clean down. As you clean, you are likely to knock dust or crumbs off of the surface you are currently cleaning, which is absolutely fine if you haven’t cleaned the surface below it. Starting from the top ensures that you won’t find yourself cleaning the same area more than once.
