Cleaning for Spring: List For Spring Cleaning

Cleaning for Spring
Spring is in the air and you know what that means? Yes, open the windows and start your spring cleaning! Not sure where to start? Here are some tips to get you started, as well as a checklist so you don’t forget anything.

First, it is helpful to start with some kind of list. You can make a list for each room if that is easier for you to break it down. Don’t forget rooms like the laundry area, utility room, garage and even closets.

You will want to make sure you have all cleaning supplies you need on hand. Make sure dusters, mops or brooms are in good shape, too. Spring is a great time to replace things you need for cleaning.

Start with getting rid of clutter. Do only one room at a time so you don’t get overwhelmed. Have a box or bag ready for donation, a trash bag for trash or recycling, and a basket or box to put items in that need to be put somewhere else in the house.

Some of the bigger task in each room are cleaning windows and window coverings. Those nasty baseboards usually get neglected, so those should be on your list as well.

In each room you will want to think about cleaning the furniture. You also want to move the furniture so you can clean around and underneath it.

In the bathroom you can add cleaning out under the sink or cabinets to your usual cleaning routine. It would only add another 10 or 15 minutes and you would have that knocked out.

You have probably heard this before, but start at the top. Dust high moldings, light fixtures or ceiling fans before going down to the walls and floors. Clean light switches, lamps, pictures and doors on the way down.
If you are going to clean window or door screens, start with those first and get that out of the way. If you have a guest room that doesn’t get used much, maybe you can skip that entirely and just focus on the high traffic areas in your house.

Don’t forget these areas in your home:
Closets
Pantries
Cosmetics/Medications
Windowsills
Vents
Fridge and Oven
Mirrors
Under Beds
Clean your computers and electronics
Shower curtains/liners

    It is so important to clean mirrors, especially in the bathroom. I can’t tell you how many photos I see on social media with mirrors that have toothpaste all over them.

    Oh gosh I hate cleaning, the skirting board are probably the bane of my life when it comes to spring cleaning – I find it so hard getting down low and cleaning them so I guess it’s more a mobility thing.

    Cleaning is something I normally hate but this pregnancy now that I’ve gotten rid of the sick feeling – its all I want to do. I obsessively clean my bathroom, my mirror and my kitchen!

    We are half way done with the spring cleaning. This year was a bit different since we now have 3 levels and so many places to clean!

    It’s getting to be that time of year! We’re still chilly in the mornings but by afternoon, it’s nice and warm out. Time to start spring cleaning. 🙂

    Windowsills…they are the bane of my existence! I can never seem to keep them clean! I blame an old house that is prone to chipping trim 🙂

Raise your hand if you love snacks. 🙋‍♀️I Raise your hand if you love snacks. 🙋‍♀️I discovered yet another subscription box called City Snack Pack, which features snacks from a different city monthly.  This was a lot of fun to unbox, you guys. And what was really super cool about this one was it featured a product from my favorite show...Shark Tank! Check out the video in my bio or search Saving Mamasita on YouTube.
