Fall Cleaning Checklist For Luxury & Airbnb Homes

The fall season will be here or it already is when you read this, so by now, it's already time to get cleaning. One of the many reasons you should perform pre-fall cleaning is to start the new season squeaky clean. A more logical reason to perform cleaning before fall is to make the heating and ducting arrangements more hygienic.

Similarly, here is a rundown of cleaning tasks you must get done before the fall arrives!

Important Fall Cleaning Guidelines & Essentials for Homes

Everything is in a state of decay or changing its state in the fall season, from the leaves to the blooming weather. In such times of being in between worlds, your cleaning can become a lot simpler when you hire professional cleaning services.

Yes, they will cost a buck or more (definitely more) but they will get it done right and save you the time and energy. Yet, regardless of whether you hire them or not, let the cleaning services in Surrey or wherever you reside, take care of the following.

1. Ceilings & Rugs

If you don't have cobwebs, it's fantastic that you live in a neat environment but the ceiling still demands a good dusting. While you're at it, with or without help, do cover your valuables or practically anything on the floor that you don't want to clean twice. Also, fresh and clean clothes are a must for dusting unless you want to smudge your ceiling.

Regarding cleaning rugs, never put them directly in the washer, nor ever dry them directly in the washer. Please follow a YouTube video guideline for fall rug cleaning or consult a professional, to prevent damages and losses.

2. Windows & Decor

The incredibly boring task or fun, depending on whom you ask, is also in the queue after you clean your in-house decor. Summer passed and any areas that didn't receive your attention except the cooling air ducts will now demand your time and effort.

Use newspapers to clean your windows, or get a smooth but soft brush/damp wiper if you want to deep clean them. Considering you cleaned it with dust in place, or even without, follow the ordeal by dry soaking the window to prevent particles from sticking to its surface.

Similarly, use fresh wipes (not paper wipes) to clean your decor items, and be extra careful when cleaning them to avoid unfortunate results.

3. Garage, Closet, & Air Ducts

Whether it is an Airbnb-listed property or not, even the garage needs to be cleaned for dust and debris so it can not smell and look great. Here you may need to make use of deep cleaning items (which would be taken care of if you had hired a professional cleaning service company) in Surrey or wherever your residence area is for de-staining the floor.

To clean your closet, take a systematic approach to cleaning by taking one shelf or compartment at a time, without spending your whole day doing it. Next, your air ducts, air vacuuming system, or HVAC units will need to be cleaned to prevent blasting your heating furnace in winter when you run them on.

4. Kitchen, Bedroom & Floor Cleaning

Lastly, the main attraction areas of the house you own or rent will need cleaning services by you to look pristine again. Start with the Kitchen (because less comfy areas = no task abandonment) to clean the usual suspects, i.e., countertop, appliances, furnishings, floor, and the corners you forgot about.

After kitchen cleaning is complete for the fall season, it's time to make your bedroom and bedding clean to prevent bug bites and general discomfort. Do not forget to fragrance treat your place after all the cleaning to remove the stench of harsh cleaning agents, if you may have used any. Also, floor cleaning of the ENTIRE property is the final mission, should you choose to perform.

You must perform floor cleaning. No takebacks.
