Which words do you associate with spring cleaning? Stress and Hard work? A dread-filled ordeal? Corporal Punishment???!! or just ‘Eww…Yuck’! Well, here we are to re-program your beliefs about spring cleaning the house by showing you how easy it can be to transform your home into the spotless abode you desire in just a few simple steps. The main idea is to ‘work smart’ and not necessarily as hard you may think… Let’s find out how.
1. Get the family involved: don’t go solo
The worse part about spring cleaning is the thought of taking the monumental responsibility onto oneself. This will not only drain but also demotivate you even before you begin. The right way to handle the task is by getting the family involved and making it a group responsibility. In this way, maintaining the cleanliness and clutter-free level will be easier apart from the actual clearing and cleaning process being less stressful and quicker for all.
2. Delegate work areas to each family member
The best way to share the work load of spring cleaning, and not get into each other’s way, is by assigning a specific work area to each family member. Delegate a room such as the kitchen, living room etc., home components such as all the windows, shelves etc. or then processes like scrubbing, vacuuming your carpet & rugs and others depending on which works best.
3. Turn on the music and establish a reward to keep everyone in high spirits
Set the mood for a productive family day ahead by playing some peppy tunes in the background. Sing along as you throw, store, scrub, scour, wash and wipe together. Have a sense of humor about it! Don’t take the job too seriously but be assertive enough to set high cleanliness standards: no hoarding! A good way to make sure the kids cover their work areas well, is by offering motivational awards to those who do a good job. Everyone learns, bonds and enjoys themselves while the house gets a good make over.
4. De-clutter unwanted items and have cleaning aides handy
Prior to actual Cleaning Day, plan the actual spring cleaning or de-cluttering session. Getting unwanted items out of the way will make the cleansing process ten times easier. You can donate discarded clothes, toys and even furniture to the Salvation Army and other donation drives. Then stock up on the correct cleaning equipment – brushes, mops, sponges, squeegees, brooms, buckets, vacuum cleaners, spray bottles and the right liquids and detergents. The right tools are essential for convenience and ease of creating a spick and span space.

It can be easy to forget about certain cleaning tasks around the house, including the blinds on your windows. By the time you notice dust and grime building up on your blinds and shades, it’s past time to clean them. What you can’t see as easily are the allergens, dander, bacteria, and more that are also building up! Dingy, dusty blinds need to be thoroughly cleaned, but that probably sounds like an especially tedious DIY cleaning project. That’s where we come in! 
Bright sunshine, high humidity, hot and wet summers, and cool and damp winters are all things we get to experience living in Northeast Florida. We love Jacksonville FL living, but there is no doubt that the conditions here are perfect for mildew growth, and for homes in Ponte Vedra, St. Augustine, and along the First Coast, salt and sand can cause corrosion. These conditions, coupled with the everyday dust, dirt, and debris, can create buildup on your windows and cause damage. Our customers often ask us how often they should have their windows professionally cleaned. In general, we recommend that our customers throughout Northeast Florida have their windows cleaned by a highly rated cleaning company 1-4 times per year, with the average being two times per year for exterior glass and once per year for interior glass. 
Here in the South, mold and mildew can grow during any season, and dirt and grime build up throughout the year. If you live along the coast, salt and sand will accumulate and can damage the exterior of your home - even in winter. When the cold weather arrives, there is no reason to put a pause on your home’s maintenance. Good Jacksonville pressure washing companies can work even when it’s cold!

The holidays are the perfect time to host parties, have out-of-town guests, and visit with friends and family that we don’t get to see very often. When the parties are over and the guests leave, however, the dreaded
