1. Cleaning Kitchen

You can start the cleaning project from the most difficult area of the house – kitchen. This area is infamous for gathering mess. A decent approach to begin the year off right is to dispose of anything you store in the kitchen that you truly don’t require anymore. In case you haven’t utilised the toaster in months, for instance, consider selling it to a local shop or donate it to an orphanage, alongside any other small appliances or equipment that consuming up room.

2. Cleaning Living Area

Just like any other room, the living room in your house can gather mess if excessively numerous things are kept at it and if there is no space to store what can be thrown or given away. Abstain from including magazine and daily newspapers racks that can get topped off easily unless you have a habit of removing them and reusing old printed material on schedule. In case you have a bookshelf in your living area, the start of the year is the right time to check your books and give away any that you don’t require or won’t be reading again.

3. Cleaning the Bathrooms/Toilet

Bathrooms/ Toilets are infamous for gathering everything from expired prescriptions to nearly empty jugs of cleansers and soaps. Just like any other room in your home, the initial step is to de-clutter all the things that are old or no more utilised. You need to empty all the drawers and the area under the sink, also clean all the cupboards or shelves, and dispose of expired medicines, and sunscreen lotions, cleanser that you utilised once, before putting it in a drawer to never utilise again.

4. Bedrooms And Cupboards

The trick is to clean, clean, clean! Give away your clothes that does not fit anymore or that you haven’t worn in a year, and kids’ toys that are no longer used. Room organisation is about capacity; whether the room has a kid or a grown-up, it’s vital that there are fitting spots to store every item from garments to toys. Also, don’t forget carpet cleaning in every room, especially bedroom to avoid germs and harmful bacteria from making a home in the carpets.

5. Stairways, Hallways, & Storerooms
