Spring is in the air! As the days get longer and the weather warms, it’s the perfect time to declutter, deep clean, and revitalize your home for the brighter months ahead.

At Home Clean Heroes, we believe spring cleaning is a chance to refresh and recharge. So, put on some upbeat tunes, grab your favorite cleaning supplies, and let’s get started! Listen to the perfect cleaning playlist here

Benefits of Spring Cleaning

Spring cleaning offers a multitude of benefits that go beyond a sparkling home. Here are a few of the ways your home and even your health can benefit from a spring clean:

  • Improved Health: Dust mites, pollen, and other allergens can irritate your sinuses. A thorough spring cleaning helps remove these allergens from your carpets, furniture, and upholstery. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reports that indoor air quality can be two to five times worse than outdoor air, primarily due to dust, mold, and other allergens. Deep cleaning can significantly improve indoor air quality by removing these pollutants.Happy woman reading a book in a clean home with her dog
  • Enhanced Mental Well-being: Clutter can be stressful. Spring cleaning lets you declutter and organize your space, making it calmer and more peaceful. According to a study by the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), clutter can increase levels of cortisol, the stress hormone. A clean and organized home can greatly reduce these stress levels.
  • Elevated Aesthetics: Deep cleaning gets rid of built-up dirt and grime, making your home look bright and fresh. Decluttering also removes visual clutter, creating a more attractive space for you to enjoy.

Preparing for Spring Cleaning

Before you dive headfirst into cleaning, a little preparation goes a long way. Here’s what you’ll need to do:

  • Gather your supplies: Stock up on essentials like mops, vacuums, cleaning solutions, rags, and storage containers so you don’t have to stop mid-clean and run out to get something. Keep that momentum going by preparing ahead of time. 
  • Set realistic goals: Decide what you want to accomplish during your spring cleaning session. Do you want to deep clean the entire house, or focus on decluttering one room at a time? Setting realistic goals will help you stay on track and remain motivated.

  • Bedrooms: Declutter and remove any out-of-season clothes or items you no longer use. Wash your bedding and swap it out for lighter spring linens or throw pillows to add a touch of spring cheer. Dust all surfaces, including dressers, nightstands, and lamps. Vacuum the entire room, paying special attention to areas under the bed.
  • Bathrooms: Time to get down and dirty! Scrub the tiles and grout with a strong bathroom cleaner to remove any hard water stains or grime. Clean and disinfect the toilet, sink, and shower/bathtub. Don’t forget to wipe down the mirror with a glass cleaner for a sparkling finish. Finally, organize under-the-sink storage with bins or containers to make bathroom essentials easier to find.
