✅ Late Spring Cleaning Checklist

• Wash baseboards, window sills, door frames, ceilings, and walls
  Clear out the dust and grime that’s built up over the winter—especially in corners and high-traffic areas.

• Vacuum and clean vents and air returns
  Improve air quality and get your HVAC system ready for summer by clearing dust and debris from all vents.

• Dust blinds and wash windows (inside and out)
  Let the sunshine in with streak-free windows and clean window treatments that brighten up the space.

• Wipe down all light fixtures and ceiling fans
  You’ll be surprised how much dust collects here! Bonus: clean bulbs make rooms look brighter.

• Replace batteries in smoke and carbon monoxide detectors
  A quick safety check that’s easy to forget—spring is a good time to make this a habit.

• Clean out your pantry and wipe down cabinet interiors
  Toss expired items, reorganize your shelves, and make space for summer snacks and cookout supplies.

• Move and clean under large appliances
  Don’t forget the spots behind the fridge, washer, and dryer—they’re dust traps!

• Wash mirrors, accessories, throw blankets, and pillow covers
  Fresh textiles and shiny surfaces instantly make your home feel more polished.

• Deep clean and shampoo carpets or rugs
  Get rid of any lingering winter dirt and allergens hiding underfoot.

• Flip or rotate your mattresses
  Helps them wear evenly and improves comfort over time.

• Declutter closets and donate unused items
  A lighter closet = less stress. Plus, you’re helping others with your gently used items.

• Purge expired medicine and refresh your first aid kit
  Especially important before summer travel and outdoor adventures.

• Tidy up the yard and prep your garden
  Mow the lawn, plant some seasonal flowers, and check your outdoor furniture.
