The season of renewal is upon us and it's time to start spring cleaning by ridding your home of the dust and allergens that accumulated over the winter. Allergy season’s impending arrival makes spring cleaning especially important.
Ready to organize the house and deep clean every nook and cranny? The Linen Chest team has put together a printable room-by-room spring cleaning checklist and several tips and tricks to help you get there.
Best tip for cleaning the house
Always start cleaning each room with the high items (ceiling lights, moldings, etc.) and finish with the low items (baseboards, floors, carpets...). This method allows you to remove more dust and dirt without going over the same area several times.
The bedroom
This bedroom spring cleaning checklist will help you ensure the bed and room you sleep in are as healthy and comfortable as possible. It’s time to deep clean to eliminate dust and dust mites, purge your dressers and closets, and freshen up your bed with bedding for the warmer months.

The kitchen
The kitchen is usually the area where the messiest activities take place. Grease, spills and crumbs often end up in hard-to-reach places, such as the oven, inside the hood or under the refrigerator. Special attention should be paid to this room, to ensure that everything near the food is spotless and sanitized.
