The Libman Company Offers Tips for Effective Spring Cleaning


The Libman Wonder Mop

Whether you look forward to your deep clean in the springtime or you dread the scrubbing, some simple things can be done to make the process painless, no matter how much motivation you may need. The Libman Company, a leading U.S. maker of household and commercial cleaning products, offers some tips to help you prepare for the task.

1. Schedule time

Our schedules are full and our to-do list continues to grow. It’s no surprise that spring cleaning often gets pushed back when other things pop up in our lives. Make an appointment with yourself to clean. It can be for an entire day or in hourly intervals but be sure to block out time solely dedicated to cleaning. Keep this time like you would an appointment for the doctor or dentist.

2. Make a Cleaning List

Write down all of the areas and tasks you’d like to tackle during your spring-cleaning initiative. If you feel overwhelmed listing them all at once, you can keep the list on the refrigerator and add to it whenever you come across an area you’d like to clean.

3. Stock Up on Supplies

Using your list as a reference, make sure you have all the tools and cleaners needed to accomplish your list. Stocking up on supplies ahead of time will allow you to keep the cleaning momentum during your cleaning time without having to break for quick trips to the store when you’re out of something.

Here are some of our spring cleaning must haves:

Wonder® Mop – Each Wonder Mop has microfiber GRIPSTRIPS™ that lift up to 20% more dirt leaving your floors cleaner and can be machine washed up to 50 times.

Tile & Grout Brush – This brush has an extra narrow head designed specifically to get into grout and other tight spaces. It features firm and flexible bristles for high power cleaning that toothbrushes can’t compare to.

Flexible Microfiber Duster– Premium microfiber fingers pick up dust and the allergens in them. Cleaning pads are machine washable and reusable.

4. Declutter Before Cleaning

Spend some time in the days or weeks leading up to your spring cleaning to declutter. It’s hard to clean when there is stuff in your way. Set daily goals to declutter one drawer, shelf or room in the days leading up to your cleaning time. This will help to keep the task of spring cleaning from becoming overwhelming and frustrating.

5. Follow Through

When your self-scheduled cleaning appointment arrives, it’s easy to convince yourself you can do it another time. Don’t – spend that allotted time cleaning and get it done. Once clean, you’ll feel better and realize all your prep made it the easiest spring cleaning yet.

6. Clean task by task

Instead of cleaning room-by-room, tackle your new home task-by-task. This method ends up being considerably quicker. Think about it – when you have equipped yourself with a sponge and soapy water, it’s much easier to just continue on than set it down and pick something else up. The new portable Libman Maid Caddy is a convenient way to store and transport frequently used cleaning tools from room to room.
