Trick or Treat? Halloween is right around the corner! With that, post-Halloween cleaning can be a lot. From candy wrappers to glitter, to chocolate stains and face paint, there can be a lot to do the next day. Here are 5 cleaning projects to complete before Halloween to help alleviate some of the stress afterwards.
Kitchen
If you’re planning to do a lot of baking this Halloween you should clean your kitchen before you start. Kitchen prep for Halloween can include cleaning out your sink, dishwasher, and clearing any clutter on the countertops. This will provide ample space to bake. Once you’re finished, it will also make for an easier cleanup afterwards by not allowing too many dishes to pile up.
Dining Room
Pumpkin carving can get messy. To help minimize the mess and save some time, you should give your dining room a thorough clean before you begin. There may be a short period of time between pumpkin carving and welcoming your guests so cleaning beforehand can help for an easy transition. Make sure you remove and clear any items that you don’t want to get pumpkin guts on. At the time of carving, you can cover your furniture and floors in plastic for an easy clean up afterwards.
Storage
While you’re digging through storage looking for your Halloween decorations and costumes you’re probably thinking to yourself ‘I’ll clean this later’. But we all know that later turns into next year and the cycle repeats. While you’re grabbing items, start to take note and organize other items as well. You’re already in there, may as well clean! Cleaning and organizing your storage now will make you feel refreshed and ready for the other holiday seasons approaching.
Entryway
Between the trick or treaters and your party guests, you want to make sure that your entryway and front of home are clean. This can include relocating shoes and jackets to make space for your guests, any dusting and vacuuming that needs to be done, and swapping out summer decor for Halloween decor on your front porch. To eliminate dragging any dirt into your home, you can hire a Pro to clear any debris outside.
