You made it through the maelstrom that was Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and the new juggernaut Cyber Monday. But now, it’s nearly December and the real holiday frenzy is about to kick into 5th gear. The holidays are a time for family, friends, colleagues, and loved ones to spend quality time together i.e. holiday parties.
How can you ensure your energy stays geared towards the party and not worrying whether the bathrooms are clean and the rugs properly placed. The way to get the most out of The Best Time Of The Year, is to work from a checklist.
Here is a holiday party cleaning checklist for homes and offices:
The Week Before:
Bathroom:
Stock liquid hand soap
Make hand towels visible and accessible
Stock toilet paper and feminine products
Floors:
Deep-clean (preferably with a professional cleaning company like N&A Commercial)
Use rugs to protect hardwood or sensitive areas
Upholstered Furniture:
Vacuum fabric-covered furniture and wash removable upholstery
For best results, schedule a professional cleaning company ahead of time
Tables:
Use tablecloths and covers to protect table surfaces
Stock coasters
Windows, Curtains, and Blinds:
Wash and dry windows with microfiber cloth
Clean and dust blinds, curtains, or drapery
The Day Before:
Spot check all rooms that will be accessible during the party
Dust (tip: use a dryer sheet, it picks up dust mites and prevents future dust buildup)
Pretreat tablecloths (stains are going to happen, accept it and be proactive)
