Are you preparing for a big move? Why not tackle spring cleaning too? Here are four tips from the pros to help you clean and prep for your move at the same time.
Tip #1: Downsize and Donate
Decluttering is always on the spring-cleaning to-do list, and it should be on the move prep list as well. Go through your drawers and closets and pull out things that no longer fit, that you no longer use, or that you don’t want anymore. Sell or donate these items to lighten the load for your move.
Tip #2: Clean as You Go
As you pack your belongings, dust and wipe them down before you put them in boxes. You don’t want to unpack dusty, dirty items when you get to your new home. Cleaning as you go will mean you’ll have a cleaner home when you get to your destination and unpack.
Tip #3: Clean Your House as You Pack It
Lots of people pay for move-out cleaning. Instead of packing and leaving things dirty, clean as you go, and you’ll leave a clean house behind and save money not using professional cleaning.
Tip #4: Get Organized
Spring cleaning usually includes getting organized. This is especially important if your spring cleaning goes hand in hand with a move. Get organized now, so your home and belongings are not in chaos when you get to your new home.
