The Essential Spring Cleaning Check List 2022 

The Essential Spring Cleaning Check List 2022 – March is finally here! It’s time to put away our winter essentials and get ready for spring and summer with a good cleaning. A tradition of renewal, Spring cleaning is when everything gets cleaned; the dust of winter is swept away and we get a head start on the often hectic seasons ahead. Many people avoid spring (deep) cleaning simply because they don’t know where to begin. But the process of cleaning a space is actually pretty easy. Each task is quick; the tough part is getting started. Even if you aren’t quite ready to put on your rubber gloves and dive into a major deep clean, you can complete the challenge when you are ready.

In this article, we’re going to talk about how to get your home spring-cleaned or seasonally cleaned in no time and with less effort than you might think. It’s all about planning ahead and taking just a few minutes each day to complete a couple of tasks and have a tidy home you love.

Keep cleaning products to a minimum

If you need to shop for cleaning products for spring cleaning, keep items to a minimum. Too many cleaning supplies can create unnecessary clutter, and you probably won’t need all of them to keep your home fresh and clean. Instead, opt for a good all-purpose cleaner or vinegar and water, furniture polish, microfiber cloths, and some paper towels. Those items will cover the majority of surfaces in your home. Then, purchase other specialty cleaning supplies only as needed.

Spring Cleaning Checklist

Approaching your house room-by-room is the most effective way to deep clean it without feeling overwhelmed. Take the guesswork out of your spring cleaning with the seasonal cleaning checklist below. You can complete it over the course of a week, month, or any time you need to do some seasonal house cleaning.  Feel free to skip any areas that have been cleaned recently, and focus on the parts of your home that were largely neglected over the winter. Do a task or two a day, set a timer for 10-15 minutes, or work through the checklist over the month.
