How To Prep For Spring Cleaning In Michigan

As we prep for the snow to finally melt and the days finally grow longer, Michiganders know it is time to dive headfirst into spring cleaning.

Here are a few tips to make your seasonal refresh as simple as possible.

Start With Your Garage

The first question that might have popped into your head is...why?

Well, Michigan winters are brutal, especially in your garage. Between the road salt, slush, and cluttered snow equipment and gear, it is about time to sweep out the old and reorganize.

While cleaning out your garage, think about unused winter items that you can donate to Michigan thrift stores or shelters. You should also check for salt damage on your garage floors and prepare space for your upcoming summer essentials.

Again, out with the old, in with the new.

Winter Deep Clean

A good deep clean might not be what you want to do but it is needed.

With the salt and moisture from the snow, all of those weather elements can take a toll on your carpets, floors, and windows.

If you are not in the mood for a true deep clean, there are plenty of options for outside resources. Rent out a carpet cleaner or hire any of these West Michigan cleaning services to remove the winter blues from your home.

Get Your Yard Ready

After a cold and chillingly brutal winter, Michigan's spring season weather can be just as unpredictable.

Once the snow is good for good, it's time to rake up leaves, clear dead plants, and prep your garden beds.

If you live in the northern part of the state, you already know that you must be patient. Late frosts can still happen there through early May.

With these tips, you will have your entire spring cleaning completed in no time!
