🇺🇸🇺🇸 Free Tip Friday: 9 Essential January Cleaning Tips!
Start the new year fresh with these simple but effective cleaning strategies. Plus, enjoy 10% off your first cleaning when you book with VeteranMaid this month!
1. Declutter First
Before diving into cleaning, take some time to declutter. Sort items into “keep,” “donate,” and “discard” piles to make your space more manageable.
2. Dust High, Clean Low
Start by dusting ceiling fans, light fixtures, and shelves before vacuuming or mopping. This prevents dust from settling on freshly cleaned floors.
3. Refresh Your Carpets
Give your carpets new life by sprinkling baking soda over them. Let it sit for 20 minutes, then vacuum for a fresh and odor-free result.
4. Deep Clean Your Refrigerator
Empty the fridge, toss expired items, and wipe down shelves with a mix of warm water and vinegar. Don’t forget to vacuum behind and underneath!
5. Sanitize High-Touch Surfaces
Disinfect doorknobs, light switches, remote controls, and other high-touch areas to minimize the spread of germs.
6. Wash Window Treatments
January is a great time to wash or vacuum curtains and blinds. This reduces dust and gives your windows a fresh, clear look.
7. Clean Behind Furniture
Move couches, beds, and other heavy furniture to vacuum or mop hidden areas. You’ll be surprised how much dust can build up!
8. Give Bathrooms Extra Attention
Focus on grout and caulking this month. Use a grout cleaner or a mix of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide for a deep clean.
9. Tackle One Closet at a Time
Organize one closet per week in January. Store out-of-season items in bins and donate unused clothing to make space.
