To prepare your home for the warm months ahead, you'll need to remove all of the dust, debris and other leftovers from the winter. As you clear the landscape and start washing the interior and exterior of your home, it's important to get a checklist together.
Here are some tips for spring cleaning your home inside and out so you don't miss a speck of dust:
#1 Deep clean carpets.
Carpets and furniture accumulate a lot of dust and debris, so it's time to deep clean them. Look at having your carpets cleaned by local services — either steam cleaned or shampooed. Some brands of vacuums are steam cleaners, so you can deep clean your carpets yourself. If you do invest in a steam cleaner, you'll need to put down towels where family members can walk until the carpet dries.
