Set yourself up for Spring Cleaning success this year by taking some time to get ready! All big jobs begin with a list – and Spring Cleaning is no exception. A checklist will not only help to manage your expectations and allow you to tackle each task methodically one at a time, but it will also help you to avoid feeling overwhelmed which can often happen this time of year.
Next up, you’re going to want to get in the mood! A recent survey commissioned by Libman reveals that 92% of Canadians surveyed claim to feel more relaxed when they have a clean home and 90% believe having a clean home is important for mental health with their physical health (89%) right behind. So… crank up your favourite playlist and adjust that attitude – you’re going to be glad you did, we promise!
With the music going and your checklist in-hand, next you’re going to need to identify your household cleaning tools. This is simple: Determine what you’re going to need to get all the jobs on your checklist done – and make sure you’ve got them on-hand.
This may go without saying, but you want to make sure they’re all clean and in good working order. Wash anything that needs it, repair anything that isn’t working and replace anything that can’t be repaired with quality-made, ergonomic and sustainable options. Taking good care of household cleaning tools helps to ensure their longevity and reliability – saving you time and money.
Lastly, corral your household cleaning tools. You may want to do this by task, by room or by floor. Bottom line: The benefit of having what you need at your fingertips when you need it cannot be overstated. Spring Cleaning is a lot of work – make your life easier not harder.
