Cleaning before furniture and boxes arrive gives you access to corners and surfaces that become difficult to reach later.
Priority areas
- Kitchen cabinets, counters and appliances.
- Bathroom fixtures, tiles and floors.
- Windows and accessible frames.
- Wardrobes and storage interiors.
- Floors and skirting boards.
- Doors, handles and switches.
Take photographs of any pre-existing damage before moving items in. For a larger property, divide the work by room and complete one area at a time.
I appreciate the simple sequence. It makes planning a cleaning day much less overwhelming.
