Cleaning Up After the Holidays

The holidays are full of fun and festive activities, some of them more messy than others. Guests parade through our homes, also some more messy than others! Here are quick tips for cleaning up your home after the holidays. We hope they’re helpful!

 

Work From the Top Down

 

When you start to clean up after the holidays, start from the top and work your way downward. This means, don’t start with the flooring, as things might drop onto the floor while you’re cleaning. Start with countertops, furniture, and other surfaces.

 

Steam Clean Counter Tops

 

Who knows what was on those counter tops after holiday festivities? Food, drinks, liquor, dessert, everything… It’s time to get down to business and steam clean them back to their original condition!

 

Organizing

 

Everything has its own place! Slowly but surely, you can put everything back where it belongs and decrease clutter. Once this is done, it’s time to move onto the flooring…

 

Cleaning the Carpets

 

Finally, the bottom: the carpet. After you’ve removed whatever debris may be laying around after the party, give the carpets a good vacuuming. Then, we always recommend steam cleaning to thoroughly remove dust, dirt, dander, and other debris from your carpet fibers. It’s an easy way to restore your carpet to a newer, pristine condition.

 

Calling in the Professionals

 

Sometimes a job is just too big, and we need help from the professionals! There’s no shame in that. A cleaning and restoration company (like The Steam Team) can really help you out! Consider hiring the professionals for a solid deep cleaning after the holidays!
