Spring Cleaning Tips and Tricks

Springcleaning Tips and Tricks for

As we move on from winter hibernation and thaw out in the spring sunshine, motivation levels tend to increase. The annual spring cleaning ritual has become a staple for many.

If you’re planning your spring clean, take a look over these tips and tricks to get the job done to the highest standard.

1. Make a to-do list

Don’t forget anything — make a list of all the bits and bobs you want to get to room by room. Don’t forget about sorting cupboards and drawers, cleaning walls, windows, sliding door tracks, and dusting on top of cabinetry!

2. Begin at the top

When embarking on a big clean, it’s best to start from top – literally. Save yourself from doublehandling areas by commencing your clean from ceilings first, then to fans, walls, higher shelves and so on, saving floors until last. 4. Say goodbye when necessary

Don’t be afraid to say goodbye to items that are no longer needed. Arrange a few piles — one for the keep items, one for items to sell or donate, and another pile for items that are ready for the bin.

5. The finishing touch

A new plant or two, a fresh candle, washed curtains — the finishing touches will ensure that all your effort is wrapped up beautifully.

3. Start over again

Sometimes a clean isn’t all you need, but more of a serious sort out too. We can quickly and easily accumulate lots of “stuff” over the years, and it’s worth taking the time to pull everything out and review its importance. 6. Know your limits

We can’t be masters of everything, but there are plenty of professionals who specialise in a variety of spring cleaning tasks. Whether it’s the cleaning jobs you really don’t like doing, helping to create more organisation in certain spaces or help getting the garden.
