And here’s a few simple cleaning rules to follow as you work your way through the checklists above.

1) Work room by room. Don’t try to deep clean your entire house by yourself in a day. Unless you live in a very small space this likely won’t work. Instead plan to clean room by room allowing you the time you need to deep clean everything in this area.

2) Organize as you go. Plan to get rid of old and unused items. We suggest eliminating items that you haven't used in the past year, its likely you don't need them or could store them in a more permanent storage area versus your everyday living spaces. Bringing trash bins and storage bins with you to each area you are working will bring ease to this step.

3) Plan ahead. Don't just start deep cleaning because you get the urge, use that energy to organize your garage ;) When deep cleaning we encourage you to always plan ahead by knowing what rooms you want to clean, plan out the products you will need to tackle the job, for example glass cleaner for windows or glass structures; as well as the tools you've need for the job, for example feather dusters for dusting special items or a map for hard wood floors.
