The days are longer, the sun is brighter—and suddenly, you notice the dust on your blinds, the smudges on your windows, and the winter clutter that’s overstayed its welcome.
That’s right… it’s spring cleaning time.
But where do you even begin? If your house feels overwhelming, you’re not alone. The key to successful spring cleaning is knowing where to start and how to move room by room without burnout. Whether you’re tackling it yourself or calling in pros like TopClean, here’s your go-to guide.

Step 1: Set the Mood & Make a Plan
Spring cleaning isn’t just about scrubbing—it’s about resetting your space and mindset. Before diving in:
Prep like a pro:
- Create a checklist of every room
- Gather your supplies (or let TopClean bring them!)
- Put on your favorite playlist or podcast
- Set a timer for each task to avoid fatigue
Pro Tip: Focus on one room at a time instead of bouncing around the house. You’ll get more done and feel a sense of accomplishment faster.
Step 2: Start with the Hardest Room — the Bathroom
Bathrooms build up grime all winter long. Starting here checks a big item off your list and gives you instant momentum.
Your spring cleaning bathroom checklist:
- Scrub tile grout with an acid-based cleaner
- Disinfect all surfaces (toilet base, handles, faucet)
- Wash shower curtains or replace liners
- Clean behind and under everything (even the trash can!)
- Descale the showerhead and polish faucets
Want a spa-level clean without the stress? Our professional bathroom cleaning service hits every overlooked corner.
Step 3: Conquer the Kitchen Clutter
Kitchens see daily action—so a deep spring clean will instantly make your home feel fresher and more functional.
Don’t forget to:
- Clean inside cabinets and toss expired pantry items
- Degrease stove tops and behind appliances
- Scrub backsplash and sanitize countertops
- Wipe down light switches, handles, and walls
- Deep clean your fridge (pull out the drawers!)
Bonus tip: Empty your dishwasher filter—most people don’t even know it exists!
Step 4: Refresh the Living Room
This is where the dust bunnies hide. Go beyond the coffee table with these spring cleaning musts:
- Wash throw pillows and blankets
- Vacuum behind and under furniture
- Clean baseboards and vents
- Wipe electronics, TV screens, and remotes
- Dust shelves, artwork, and ceiling fans
Don’t skip your windows! Or better yet—let TopClean’s window cleaning pros do it for you.
Step 5: Reclaim Your Bedrooms
Your bedroom should feel like a retreat. Spring is the perfect time to create a calm, clean space for sleep and relaxation.
Spring cleaning checklist:
- Rotate and vacuum your mattress
- Wash bedding, duvet covers, and curtains
- Declutter nightstands and under-bed storage
- Organize your closet (hello, donation pile!)
- Dust headboards, lamps, and wall corners
