With spring just around the corner, the flowers are preparing to bloom, the birds are about to start chirping and the mood is cheerful all around. However, there is one event lurking in the background. That’s right – spring cleaning is upon us!
Many of us don’t know where to start when it comes to this lengthy task. Well, to prepare you for the UK’s Spring Cleaning Week, we have created a room-by-room printable spring cleaning checklist! So grab your cleaning supplies, put on your gloves and let’s dive right in.
If you have window screens as well, you’ll want to clean them in every part of the house where you’re using one. Simply remove them and scrub both sides with a sponge and soapy, warm water. Use a scrub brush to remove any grime that can’t be removed with a sponge and you should be all set.
Note: If you don’t want to use any hard chemicals while cleaning, you can switch to a combo of vinegar and baking soda. We recommend them as cleaning agents, because they are tough on stains, while also acting as a deodoriser and disinfectant. Perfect for any room of the house.
Kitchen spring cleaning checklist
This kitchen spring cleaning checklist will help you sanitise and organise your cooking area beyond reproach. So, grab your cleaning gloves and your mop bucket and let’s get to it!
We want to make sure the kitchen remains functional and clean, so start with the small things, like throwing away any rubbish and dated food products and then start moving up to the larger appliances and areas that need your attention.
It is important to include your bathroom in your spring cleaning list. Unfortunately, we often overlook it, and this makes for the perfect opportunity for mould, limescale and bacteria to take over.
We often dread doing the bathroom, because it often means removing old layers of limescale. Thankfully, more acidic commercial cleaners or a mixture of strong vinegar and lemon juice can dissolve it easily. Just be careful of using anything too abrasive, as it can damage the chrome underneath the limescale.
Discard any old makeup, medicine, and other cosmetics
If you’re looking to deep-clean your bathroom, check out or bathroom cleaning checklist! We’ll go over the exact tools you need and give you some advice on how to remove some of the toughest stains within the bathroom, so be sure to use it if you need more advice!
Hallway/stairs
The corridors are another place that is often forgotten when you’re tidying your home. So, when you get around to your spring cleaning chores, make sure you take care of it as well.
Dust all skirting boards, lighting fixtures, shades, and wall mounts
Wipe and dust the treads, risers, balustrades, and handrails
Vacuum any doormats
Living room
The living room is one of the key areas of any home. It’s where the whole family gathers or where guests are entertained. That’s why it’s important to keep it in great shape. Add it to your spring cleaning checklist.
Dust and clean any mirrors, picture frames, and other decorative items
Vacuum and clean all upholstery
Dust and clean all drawers, shelves, cabinets and other furniture
As it is often the most used room, it can get dirty very quickly, especially if you have a large family. In order to keep it clean, you can enforce some rules, like not wearing shoes within the living room, or making sure everything goes back to its proper place after it’s done being used. This ensures that the living room stays cleaner for longer and much easier to clean once Spring comes round again!
Bedroom
The next stop in our room by room cleaning checklist is the bedroom. Our place of rest is crucial not only to our health but our mind and general wellbeing, too. So, keeping it clean and tidy is vital.
Wash all beddings
Wash any pillows and cushions
Dust and clean all drawers, shelves, cabinets and other furniture
Dust and clean any mirrors, picture frames, and other decorative items
