Some Spring Cleaning Tips

Spring Cleaning Tips

Starting your day off in a clean office is an amazing feeling. This is why springtime is a good time to start addressing those cleaning chores you’ve been putting off. While the overall task can be overwhelming and daunting, it’s one of the best things you can do to improve your day-to-day work life. Take the time out of your busy schedule and give your office or commercial space a thorough cleaning and you’ll be much happier for it. We’ve come up with a list of the top tips that you should be using to help you get your cleaning started right.

Make a List

First things first, you’ll want to make a list.  After all, the entire task can be daunting. This is especially true if you are tasked with cleaning a large surface area. By making a list, you’ll be able to break things down so they are much less intimidating overall. You can break down sections that you’ll focus on cleaning one at a time. This can make it much easier to tackle a large-scale cleaning job. Making the tasks much more manageable is the best way to keep yourself from putting them off. This is especially true when you get the pleasure of checking them off. As you accomplish the different tasks on your list, you’ll have the pleasure of going through and crossing them out. This can help you get rid of the cognitive load that typically comes with tackling such a big project at once. It can help you prioritize your focus and accomplish the goal of cleaning everything you’ve been putting off doing for a long time.

Timeline

Once you’ve created a list, you’ll want to make a timeline. You don’t want the task to be prolonged too much. If you do this, you’ll end up giving up mid-way through. Maximize your chances of finishing everything by creating a realistic timeline. This timeline will give you the motivation needed to not only start the cleaning process but to go through all of it. You want to avoid attempting to fit too much into your busy schedule. This isn’t going to be beneficial for you. Rather, set up a timer and minimize the distractions. Have a specific goal that you want to set out to accomplish and do it. The greater and more productive you can be, the faster you’ll end up completing the project.

Declutter Everything

Spring is the perfect time to go through and get rid of things that you no longer need. If you are looking to declutter, this is the perfect time to do it. By doing this, you’ll be able to free up valuable space and give yourself a lot more room for living. You can get rid of all of the unnecessary items that have been taking up valuable space in your storage room, office, copier room, etc. Find stuff that you no longer use, want, or care about. If you don’t love something and need it, you can toss it. Whether it’s selling it, donating it, or simply getting rid of it. It will end up being worth going through things during this time because you’ll free up space that can be put to better use.

There are plenty of different parts of an office that are typically overlooked when conducting a spring cleaning. Because of this, you’ll want to be certain you are going through every space that gets neglected during your smaller cleaning sessions.

You’ll want to focus on things that regularly get touched and used. You’ll find doorknobs, elevator buttons, electronics, and even fans can be places that house a lot of harmful bacteria. Clean these areas and you’ll be able to make your office a cleaner and safer place to be.

Once you’ve completed your spring cleaning, you’ll feel much more at ease. After all, cleanliness leads to happiness. It can be the fresh start you need during this period of the year.
