Deep Clean: Top Tips for Spring Cleaning

ClickandStor™ Online Rental Suite has you covered if you want to deep clean and organize your home before summer. Spring cleaning is essential and offers a much-needed reset for your entire home. Your home will feel more spacious and it will improve your mental health after you deep clean. Read on below to find out how you can deep clean for spring. 

Create Your Schedule

Deep cleaning is not a spur-of-the-moment, one day process – it will take a few days to finish. Instead of jumping in full steam, you should plan what you will do first—schedule which room you will clean initially and then which section of that room you will focus on. Time block how long you will spend in each room and commit to a day to get started. After that, create a goal-setting sheet and place it on the door until the project is done. Check off items and goals as you complete them.

Actively Declutter

After that, it is time to determine how often you use each item and whether you can afford to declutter it. Divide each of your belongings in these rooms into passive and active piles. “Passive items” are those items you do not use often. “Active items” are belongings you use daily, if not several times a day. 

You can put active items back since you will use them again soon. Passive items are candidates for self storage or garage sales. You do not need passive items taking up valuable space if you can avoid it. 

Get the Right Cleaning Gear

Make sure you have buckets and latex gloves ready at the helm. Getting the right cleaning gear is the key to an effortless spring cleaning session. There is nothing like a window cleaner that does not streak or a degreaser that leaves no excess behind. You need to ensure you have the brooms, dust pans, and paper towels you will need to get the job done. Choose products based on quality, not just value and price. Cheaper is not always better, especially when it comes to cleaning solutions.

The Best Solution to Clutter

You can solve the problem of a cluttered home by investing in a self-storage unit. This helps you declutter your passive items, such as office documents, old furniture, artwork, seasonal decor, etc. Most units are climate-controlled, so you can completely control humidity levels and mitigate extreme temperatures. Many facilities have daily access, surveillance cameras, and remote locks to keep all your belongings safe.
