It is so exciting to move to a new home. Think of it as an opportunity to reorganize, add some new furniture, and add contemporary finishes. Unfortunately, moving can also be hectic for many. It’s recommended to have a well-organized plan. The strategy is to clear away unwanted belongings before you start to pack. It is a smart decision to hire a moving company to make your move stress-free and help with all the heavy lifting.
You must consider move-in cleaning as part of the plan. During the COVID pandemic, you still have to worry about whether the people who occupied the home before you are clean and COVID-free. Many of our customers say they have found grime and dirt on many surfaces that need to be taken care of before moving in.
The ideal thing to do is to hire a professional cleaning company to help. However, many customers want to do the work themselves. A good strategy is to clean your new home before your professional movers arrive. This helps to eliminate having to move unpacked boxes and furniture boxes when you do your cleaning. It is an excellent opportunity to focus on every corner in the house and all spots.
Here are some suggestions for deep cleaning your new home.
Disinfecting All Surfaces
After you have moved in, it is essential to disinfect all surfaces that the professional movers, cleaners, and others might have touched. Sanitize doorknobs, handles, sinks, windows, and furniture.
Clean High Surfaces
Focus on the dust. Start cleaning upper surfaces such as fans, ceilings, and cabinets. It can be a good idea to clean the walls as well. Many people will use store-bought cleaning products. Consider using warm water and a vinegar solution if you want an alternative.
Clean the Floors
It is good to start by sweeping. Focus on all the dirt and trash lying around. You can also use a vacuum. Many people rent a steamer cleaning machine at the local supermarket. You can also hire a steam cleaning professional to sanitize and clean all the carpets and rugs.
Managing Stains
Sometimes, the usual cleaning detergents might not work on some stains like pet urine or cigarette smoke. Deep cleaning is required to help remove these stains and odours. Research some of the best methods of cleaning that specific stain. Check out YouTube because it is a get-how-to video site. You can also consult an expert to help.
Kitchen
Make sure you start with the fridge and microwave first. Disinfect and clean the surfaces thoroughly. You can use warm water, vinegar, and baking soda to help remove oil stains. Cleaning the kitchen is vital because it assures that your food will remain safe for consumption.
