What is the tradition of spring-cleaning?
Spring cleaning dates back over 3,000 years ago to a spring tradition known as “shaking the house.” It was believed that sweeping up dust and removing clutter from one's home would prevent ill-fortune in the upcoming year. Spring is here. Follow these 5 tips to a successful spring-cleaning:
1. Clear away the clutter:
Whatever mess may look like in your space, eliminating it before starting to spring clean will make cleaning every room easier.
2. Prepare your equipment:
Check your supplies before you begin. Do you have the right towels? The right cleaners? Running out of supplies, or having equipment that isn't ready to use will likely disrupt your spring cleaning plans.
3. Have a plan:
Setting a goal before you begin is helpful for deciding how extensive you need to be. Spring cleaning can be a significant undertaking.
4. Donate:
We all have items that we no longer use that others can put to good use, so put together a donation box. A good rule of thumb is to get rid of anything you haven't used in the past year.
5. Enlist help:
Don't tackle a good clean on your own. Call for backup so you can enjoy the process.
Microfiber towels and cloth-like disposable wipers make the perfect soft tool. Let Mednik Riverbend help with your needs to complete your upcoming spring cleaning.
