The kitchen is probably the most used room in the house. It’s the hub that parties revolve around, the command centre for backyard barbeques, and the birthplace of all those delicious holiday meals. It’s also the room that requires the most cleaning. The most daunting part is knowing where to start and how to thoroughly clean your kitchen.
The list of things that need to be cleaned in the kitchen is pretty long. Most of the things on that list are different cleaning tasks everyone avoids until it’s absolutely necessary. And while some of those tasks may be difficult, the payoff is huge. So, stop putting those deep cleaning tasks aside.Â
Either contact your local maid service in Chamblee, GA to help you out or tackle them by yourself. Properly cleaning your kitchen is not much harder than knowing how to clean your living room correctly, how to organize your bedroom or how to deep clean your bathroom tiles.
How do you deep clean and organize a kitchen?
There are many things that need to be cleaned in the kitchen. There are appliances, the stove, the oven, the sink, the floor, and the list goes on. Knowing where to start is half of the work.
1. Do a pre-clean
Before you really get down and dirty, do a preliminary surface cleaning. This will clear away unnecessary clutter and make your job a lot easier. Simply wash, dry and put away any dirty dishes, clean the countertops and remove everything that does not belong in the kitchen.
2. Organize everything
Organize your kitchen in a way that makes sense to you. You might want to organize things vertically with snacks and cereals on the lowest shelves, canned goods on the middle shelves, and seasonal items that you only rarely use on the top shelves. You may have an alternative system already in place that you’re comfortable with – whatever works for you is great.Â
3. Clean the cupboards and drawers
More often than not, kitchen drawers and cupboards end up as places where many miscellaneous things are kept. What you can do when cleaning and organizing the cupboards and drawers is to:
- Remove everything from the cupboards and place it on the kitchen table.
- Separate all seasonal items and place them in boxes for storage.
- Check the expiration date on any food items and throw away the expired ones.
- Throw away any unnecessary, broken or unwanted items.
- Clean the shelves and drawers.
- Return all of the items back, grouping similar items together.
4. Clean the face of the cabinets
There are a number of kitchen cleaning products on the market designed for different types of cabinet faces. No matter which one you go for, make sure that you’re always using safe and effective products.Â
Alternatively, you can go for a homemade cleaning mixture. All you have to do is to mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 5 tablespoons of vinegar, and 2 cups of water. Use a spray bottle to spray this onto the stained surface and wipe with a clean cloth.
5. Clean the appliances
The toughest one to clean, of course, would be the fridge. It’s no wonder since something is bound to spill inside of it at some point. The only proper way to clean it would be to take all of the food items out. Clean all of the shelves and drawers in the sink, then put all of the items back into the fridge.
Same goes for any other bigger or smaller appliances, including a dishwasher, microwave, oven, etc. When you’re done cleaning them inside and out, don’t forget to actually move them so you can clean behind and under them as well.Â
