Easy Spring Cleaning

If you don’t have time for a huge ordeal, here are some tips from the Good Housekeeping Institute on how to tackle the important stuff.

Behind the big stuff

This is a great time to move the beds, sofas and other heavy furniture that you typically don’t bother with. Going one side at a time, pull the item away from the wall. Clean behind it and use the appropriate attachment on your vacuum to get the floor and baseboards. Push it back in, and pull out the other side to do the same.

Get no-streak windows

Definitely consider getting a microfiber cloth. They are relatively inexpensive and significantly cut down on elbow grease. Plus they are lint free and leave no streaks.

Tackle the bathroom

Invest in a cleaning tool with a pivoting head and extendable handle. Use disposable cloths to get behind toilets, shower walls, tubs and more. Don’t forget to get rid of old cosmetics etc. from the medicine cabinet.

Get the nooks and crannies

With the brush attachment on your vacuum, get the dust on window sills, door frames, heating vents and other often-forgotten-about places.

Window Exteriors

Get a squeegee for windows, it’s worth the investment.

Top to Bottom

Clean your areas starting at the top and working to the bottom
