March Madness
March marks the return of your spring house cleaning. As the break comes near, it will allow you the time to finish your annual home spring cleaning. The concept of Spring cleaning is all about accomplishing a fresh start for you and your family. Clearly, cleaning your home will be a long and daunting task, so the first thing to execute is your spring house cleaning checklist.
The Tough Road
The process of completing the cleaning will be formidable, but you can’t deny that the outcome will be worth it. It is important to be thorough with your checklist and go through and tackle every aspect that needs to be taken care of. One thing to keep in mind is that you must create a realistic schedule; this probably will not be achieved over a weekend. Spread your schedule throughout the week to give yourself time to cover everything from the attic to the inside to the basement and to the yard.
The following is an overall outline of the important aspects of the room that you should scrub, dust, wipe, or sweep. The same spring house checklist could be applied to every room in your home (kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, living room, dining room).
