Fall Cleaning

The phrase "spring cleaning" is part of the American lexicon -- everyone knows what it means and most people give their homes a thorough scrubbing once the snow melts and days grow longer and warmer. But what about fall cleaning? As someone who obsessively cleans, I believe that fall cleaning gets short shrift.

 

As we prepare for the arrival of winter and the winter holidays, what a better time to give the homestead a good going over. For me, the month of October has always involved fall cleaning. I get the gardens ready for winter, cutting everything back, cleaning up, and removing all the remaining flowers. But outside isn't the only area I focus on.

Fall is a great time to clean windows, purge unwanted items, organize closets and drawers, and engage in all those spring cleaning activities.

So, this October, in addition to enjoying the colors on the trees, bringing out the warmer clothes from storage, and getting ready for Halloween, I am also setting some time aside for fall cleaning.

I use all the cleaning products and am very satisfied with the results. I especially like the LOC Plus Glass Cleaner. I use it for both my home and janitorial business. It contains no ammonia and, when mixed correctly, will not streak, even when using it on the inside of car windshields. I just wish that it came in a larger container, like a 1L or 4L bottle. On a side note, I am extremely disappointed that they are dropping the 1L and 4L pumps. I sure hope they are coming out with pourable caps or something to replace them. Not everybody uses pistol grip sprayers for the cleaning products.

Gregory, Giving our homes and businesses a thorough cleaning in both the spring and fall is a great idea. A friend owns a cleaning business and recommends a "deep" cleaning at least twice a year, more often if lots of pets or younger children. I like the Amway cleaning products because there's one for each thing: kitchen, bathroom, glass, shower and multi-purpose for nearly everything else. Makes it easy even for a guy like me! Now when I clean I know what to do and don't mind it as much as I used to. That's a big selling point for my retail business.
