The Beginner’s Guide to Cleaning after Holidays

As soon as we start enjoying the holidays, we don’t even know how quickly they get over. Then it comes the time for you to remember all the parties, the guests, the merriment, and obviously the mess. If you plan a post-holiday cleaning spree after hosting the family for the holidays, here are some tips to help you. Start with Decluttering During the holiday season, we often tend to accumulate stuff. Although giving gifts is great, finding your kitchen filled with used storage containers, storage areas stuffed with unwanted decorations, and trash bins full of waste is not always that great.

Cure the Winter Blues with a Deep Winter Cleaning

It’s not a secret that for a lot of people, winter can really get them down. The short days. The cold. Inclement weather. Gray skies. Feeling cooped up inside the house. Seeing why winter is a lot of people’s least favorite season isn’t hard to do.What’s also not a secret about winter is that it’s a tough time to keep a house clean the way you like it. With people spending a lot more time indoors, counters and appliances see more use, floors see more feet, and furniture sees more bodies, bodies that sometimes spill things or drop food crumbs. When it’s snowy or slushy outside, dirt and water inevitably end up in doorways and foyers and other places as well.Take all that and add the low spirits that often accompany winter and you might find less motivation to keep up with things. And so the house gets messy even though you don’t like it.There’s a way Nap’s Maintenance Services can add some cheer to what for some is the dreariest of seasons: a deep winter cleaning. Reasons To Get a Deep … [Read more...]
