Easy Steps to Spring Cleaning

Warm weather is upon us, time to spend quality time with friends and family outside and enjoy the sun that we’ve missed all winter long. Before you make any plans, there’s some work that needs to be done. Get started by giving your home a thorough cleaning. Follow these easy steps to spring cleaning and get started enjoying the warm spring air!

Go Room by Room

Spring cleaning does take some time, and can be overwhelming, rather than getting yourself stressed looking at the big picture, focus on one room at a time. This will help you keep you in order and help keep your time and attention dedicated to one room at a time.

Prioritize by Importance

Lists make our lives easier, by making a list and prioritizing by level of importance you will stay on track and get your spring cleaning done in no time. Start with the most important tasks within each room, check your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors, and then move onto smaller projects. Making a list will save you time and help create a schedule that is easy to follow and achieve.

Declutter

While on the topic of prioritizing tasks, there are some prioritizing techniques to follow when decluttering. Spring is the time of the year that you should start fresh, and that starts with getting rid of the clutter in your home. You can recycle, donate, or simply throw away whatever items you no longer have use for and haven’t been used in years. Clothing is usually number one, try to keep things organized and use two different colored trash bags when sorting through clothes. White bags can be for donations, and black for what you’re throwing away, this will make it easier to remember what’s going to the donation drop box and what’s going to the curb.

Clean and Organize as You Go

Just because you’re planning a big spring cleaning doesn’t mean your home should go unkempt all winter long. Create and follow a weekly/monthly checklist of home maintenance projects, making it easier to manage rather than trying to tackle everything at once. By following a weekly/monthly list of tasks you will be able to break up the chores into manageable and maintainable projects.
