Spring Cleaning

February 27, 20252 min read

It’s SPRING. Or at least it will be soon. Can you believe it?

As the gentle warmth of spring begins to fill the air and nature blooms in all its glory, it’s the perfect moment to turn our attention inward and refresh our homes. After the long and snowy (for some of us) winter months, a thorough spring cleaning can transform your living spaces, bringing clarity, energy, and renewal that mirrors the season’s fresh start.

Did you know that preparing before your professional cleaning service arrives can make a significant difference?

By tackling small tasks and organizing your space ahead of time, you’ll maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of our cleaning team. Here’s a room-by-room guide to help you prepare for spring cleaning success:

1. Kitchen: The Heart of the Home

  • Tidy Tabletops: Clear the countertops of small appliances, utensils, and other items to allow professionals easy access for deep cleaning.

  • Empty the Sink: Wash or load dirty dishes into the dishwasher. 

  • Organize the Pantry & Fridge: Take a few minutes to check for expired goods (and throw them away if they expire).

2. Living Room: The Space for Gathering

  • Pick Up Loose Items: Gather toys, clothes, and other miscellaneous items to clear surfaces.

  • Declutter shelves: Remove fragile or personal items from the shelves, making our cleaning team more efficient.

  • Organize Electronics: Tuck away cords and secure loose wires to make dusting and vacuuming efficient. 

3. Bedroom: Your Sanctuary

  • Tidy Bedside Tables: Remove personal items, books, or clutter for easier cleaning.

  • Organize Closets: A quick organization session can provide clear floor space and ensure all areas are accessible for cleaning.

  • Wash Bedding: Consider washing your sheets before the cleaners arrive and put them on the bed for us to change for you.

4. Bathroom: The Refresh Zone

  • Remove Personal Items: Clear toiletries, makeup, and toothbrushes from the countertops to ensure thorough sanitization.

  • Check Shower and Tub Areas: Remove loofahs, shampoo bottles, and other items to speed up and improve cleaning efficiency. 

5. Entryways and Hallways

  • Store Shoes and Coats: Please remove footwear and outerwear to ensure the floors are accessible.

  • Remove Clutter: Tidy up keys, bags, or miscellaneous items from tables or hooks.

Bonus Tip:

  • Communicate Your Needs: Please inform us about any specific focus areas or challenges you want us to address.

  • Secure Valuables: For peace of mind, store your jewelry, cash, and any important documents in a secure location.

  • Pet Prep: Keep your pets in a secure area to avoid distractions during cleaning.
