Spring is the perfect time to make a deep clean happen <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">before<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> your move. Taking the time to deep clean your space before a move can make the process easier with less stress. We\u2019ve rounded up a few helpful spring cleaning tips to complete before your move below!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Deep Clean<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you vacate a space, you are expected to leave the property in its best possible condition. Why not get a jump start on the process before you move? Completing a deep clean of your property early will make cleaning up easier when it\u2019s time to move. Start by cleaning your property from floor to ceiling. Here are a few helpful ways to complete a deep spring clean:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dust the ceiling fans and clean any cobwebs or stains from the ceiling and trim<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use a soapy sponge or cloth to remove any marks on the walls<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clear out your cupboards and cabinets, then wipe them down fully<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vacuum out your drawers\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clean out your refrigerator and wipe up any crumbs or food that may have spilled<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scrub the floors in your bathroom, kitchen, and bedroom<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Declutter<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t waste money on moving unwanted items from one property to the next! Take inventory and declutter your spaces before you move. Here is a list of helpful items you may want to get rid of before you move:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Books, DVDs, video games or entertainment you no longer use<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Old or broken dishes, glasses, utensils or small kitchen appliances<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clothes, shoes or accessories you no longer wear<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Torn or worn bedsheets, towels and curtains<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Toys or activities that your children have outgrown<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Broken tools, old yard equipment or any outdoor items you no longer use<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Large pieces of furniture that may not fit in your new space\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Purge or Recycle<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you decide on items you\u2019d like to get rid of as you declutter, be sure to purge or recycle what you aren\u2019t using. As we mentioned above, you don\u2019t want to spend the time or money packing away items you are no longer using. Don\u2019t forget to consider how your furniture will fit in your new space, too. Some items may be too small or too large and should be donated, instead of included in the move.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Clean the Small Spots<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure to give every small nook and cranny in your current space a good clean. Chances are that you haven\u2019t really given your space a deep clean in several months and these smaller areas tend to have dirt or grime pile up over time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Get Organized\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you move into a new space, it\u2019s like a fresh start. Make sure you have your personal items organized, so you can put them away faster when you move.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Work with UNITS Baltimore<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re planning a big move in the future, UNITS of Baltimore wants to help!
