We know, we know — it’s still technically winter. But come September 1st, something in the air shifts.
The sun stays out longer. The air smells fresher. And suddenly… we notice the dust.
Spring is around the corner — and that means one thing: the annual clean-out we love to hate.
But what if you could start it now, in small, easy steps — and avoid the overwhelming chaos when September hits?
This month, we’re giving you a Pre-Spring Cleaning Checklist to get your home primed for a proper reset — without the stress. (And spoiler: this is also how to make your actual spring clean way easier.)
Tackle these 6 prep steps now, and future-you will thank you:
Before you deep clean, make space to clean.
Clear benchtops, nightstands, coffee tables and desks. Get rid of expired coupons, broken kids’ toys, and random “junk drawer” stuff that migrated into your life.
Pro tip: Use the 60-second rule — if it takes under a minute to throw out, put away or donate, do it now.
There’s nothing worse than psyching yourself up to clean… and realising you’re out of spray.
Want to go natural? Restock with bicarb, vinegar, and eucalyptus oil for a DIY-friendly arsenal.
Don’t clean them yet — just spot what needs doing and make a short to-do list for September. Awareness = power (and less panic).
Booking in a spring detail? Do this first:
