By going in with a plan, you can slowly make progress on your to do list and still have time to enjoy all of your hard work.

Spring Cleaning Tips

Need some tips on getting ready for spring? Use this list of the top five easiest ways to clear out the clutter and embrace the warmer weather ahead. Enlist some help from your family and you’ll have your home clean in no time at all!

1. Create a Schedule: Make a list of all the areas in your home that you will need to tackle. Prioritize your list by the areas that need the most attention. These will probably be areas that you didn’t get to clean during winter months, like the garage, cars, backyard and basement.
2. De-Clutter: During winter, clutter can pile up quickly. But, as popular shows and articles have uncovered, clutter can have a psychological effect on your happiness. Make three piles of things to keep, things to donate, and things to put into self storage.
3. Clean Your Carpets: It’s so easy to overlook your carpets. You vacuum, isn’t that good enough? If you have pets or children, your carpets take a beating during the winter months. You should consider getting your carpets professionally cleaned twice a year to keep them fresh and allergy-free.
4. Don’t Do Everything at Once: It’s easy to take the first nice day and just start cleaning everything, but it can quickly burn you out. Stick to your schedule and tackle a little bit at a time. Make sure to get outside and enjoy the warm weather!
5. Don’t Be Afraid to Enlist Help: There is no rule that all your spring cleaning has to be done by you. Consider hiring a one-time maid service or have your family tackle one project. It’s not about how you get it done, it’s about getting it done!
