Spring Cleaning Tips for Your Home

Mar 5, 2020

Spring is right around the corner here in Maryland and many homeowners are starting to get the itch to start cleaning. Spring cleaning is a great way to freshen up your living space and set an uplifting mood in your home. When the days start to get warmer and the sun starts to shine brighter, it’s a great time to get to work.

But spring cleaning isn’t just throwing open the windows to let in the fresh air and packing away sweaters and boots until fall. There are some additional things you can do in your home to really make it feel shiny and new. Let’s look at some simple spring cleaning tips that can make a huge difference in your home. 

Declutter

One thing you can do to make a huge impact in your home (and make all future cleanings easier on yourself!) is to declutter areas that have simply collected too much “stuff”. Does your kitchen have several junk drawers? Is your kitchen island now the place where your mail collects? Having clutter throughout your home not only makes it look less desirable, but it can also negatively impact your mood and mental health.

In addition, clutter makes cleaning more difficult. It’s harder to wipe down a countertop that is covered in papers, keys, miscellaneous toys, and other “junk.” A great way to limit clutter is to assign everything a home within your house, but in some cases, it’s beneficial to eliminate old items altogether. 

Donate or Dump

If the clutter is just too much and you have an excess of things you don’t need or want, then you may want to take a trip or two to Goodwill, your local donation box, or the dump. Instead of packing all of your winter clothes into boxes, why not take the time to determine which items can be donated and which are worth keeping?

If you have children, you probably have an excess of toys in the house following Christmas so consider boxing up some old toys that aren’t used anymore and donate them to someone in need. If you find there is simply too much to donate it all, or you have things that aren’t in good enough shape for donation, having a dumpster delivered to your home for a week can make cleaning out the excess easier and more efficient. 

Deep Clean

Once you’ve dealt with the clutter and excess, you can get to work deep cleaning your home. You’ll find it much easier to clean thoroughly when there isn’t extra junk lying around. Spring is a great time to do some often overlooked cleanings, such as gutters, siding, and kitchen appliances.

Carpet and floor cleaning is another great thing to do during the spring. Over the course of the winter carpets and floors get dirty and can harbor germs and dust that can cause allergies or illness. By having your carpets professionally cleaned you can eliminate those allergens, freshen up your home, and enjoy beautiful, spotless carpets.
