With the holidays over, it’s time to think about the cleanup. With so many tasks at hand, it may be difficult to find a place to start. To begin the year right with a fresh and tidy house, check these tips from ServiceMaster by Wright!
Do Not Let Gifts Become Clutter.
- The best way to start cleaning after the holidays is not to let gifts, wrappers, and boxes become clutter
- Gifts are sometimes unwanted or excessive. You may opt to ‘re-gift’ items that you don’t want, need, or already have a lot of, or you can donate them to charity.
- Wrappers, boxes, and gift tags should go to the recycling bin and not be left lying around.
Takedown Holiday Decorations Systematically.
- The Yuletide season can wear people out, which may prompt homeowners to consider taking down the decor at a later time. It’s also tempting to gather all the decor up and stash them away to get the job done.
- While it certainly is easier to do a quick job of it, it’s better to take your decorations down and pack them away systematically. That way, your decorations are handled with care and they eventually last longer.
- In addition, you won’t have to reorganize your stuff later on just because you did not organize them the first time.
Clean Your Carpet.
- Carpet Cleaning in Fort Myers, FL is a priority after the holidays to prepare your home for the new year.
- Carpets set the tone of a room, and a dirty carpet is not just unappealing but also unsanitary and can trigger respiratory and allergy issues.
- Spills are unavoidable sometimes, especially when celebrating, and food and drinks that get spilled become stains. You need to spot-clean any stain immediately because stains are harder to remove once they have set.
- Vacuuming and paying more attention to high-traffic areas are also important in maintaining the cleanliness and pleasing appearance of your carpet.
- Expert cleaning by professionals is a must if you want more thorough cleaning.
Give Your Bathrooms Deeper Cleaning.
- Everyone uses the bathroom, so special attention must be given to the parts that don’t always receive more than a cursory cleaning, such as the floor and the walls.
- Professional tile and grout cleaning will give your bathroom the extra sparkling cleanness it deserves after all the use it had to bear all season long.
Other areas of your house also need attention. Use this checklist as a guide for effective and successful post-holiday cleanup in Fort Myers, FL:
