Spring cleaning may get all of the glory, but there’s certainly something to be said about deep cleaning your home before the fall season hits. Here are some of the best things to do to prepare your living space for the chill of fall.
- Thoroughly wash windows. Prepare your windows for fall by cleaning each one thoroughly with a steak-free cleaner.
- Deep-clean any carpets. Whether you own a carpet shampooer or you decide to pay for a professional, it’s important to deep-clean the summer’s worth of dirt out from inside of your carpets.
- Organize your closets. Donate any unworn clothing, pack away summer items, and organize your colder weather clothes throughout your closet.
