Spring cleaning checklist
March is Spring cleaning month!
There’s something about cracking open the windows after a long winter that makes us want to clean the entire house. If you’re like us and in need of a deep clean after hibernation, here’s a list to get you started!
Spring cleaning checklist:
To Clean
Kitchen cabinets- organize and throw out expired food
Disinfect all the toys
Clean windows inside AND out
Wipe off those baseboards
Wash the couch cushions covers and vacuum underneath
Give the bathroom a good scrub
Flip/rotate your mattress
Have the kiddos clean under their bed
Vaccuum out your car- the stale fries in the backseat need to go
Clean the vents (maybe even hire an HVAC cleaner to really get in there)
Empty out the fridge and give it a scrub. Check expiration dates as you fill it back up
Dust the house from top to bottom
Air the rugs out and give them a good scrub (or hire someone to do it)
Wash the curtains
To Organize
Organize your nightstand
Tidy up the cleaning supplies and see what needs refilled
Organize the junk drawer
Organize the linen closet- sheets/towels past their prime need to go
Put away extra shoes that are piling up in the mudroom
To Donate, Recycle, or Trash
If you have clothes in your closet that you haven’t worn in a year, then they need to go
Clear and dispose of any expired meds in the medicine cabinet
Check your socks and underwear drawer, if worn out = pitch it
Rotate, sell, or donate toys that haven’t been played with in a while
Sort out kid’s clothes that don’t fit and donate or sell them
