I’m going to:

Completely empty bathroom, vacuum, deep scrub, wash everything, reset.

Horizontal surfaces of living/dining room.

Clean/purge coat closet.

Self clean cycle of washing machine.

Deeeeeep clean kitchen and get rid of some items I haven’t used in 2+ years.

In one day? I was thinking of taking a week off of work to deep clean (I have a lot of unused PTO and I love cleaning when the house is empty) and I'm still not sure I'd get through all of that, deep clean the whole kitchen? I'm super impressed.

I wouldn’t be impressed people have a window range now what they consider deep clean. When I deep clean my kitchen it is for a sure an entire day. I first remove everything from the cabinets. I then wipe them down inside and out, every square inch. I then wash the floor by hand, using a rag. When I got to put everything back in (pantry is a colossal job) I also wipe all of that down . The fridge gets emptied and bleached down and organized. The freezer too and that gets wiped down with bleach. Of course then we get the the oven which alone is a production, including restoring my cart iron to a mirror finish-that’s actually a 2 day affair. Of course and then there is the basic stuff like clean the counter and recaulking around the sink area and scrubbing down the backsplash. Last but not least I touch up all the kitchen paint.

Once I’m done with a deep clean of my entire house, it is so clean and organized and purged that I could Hire movers to pack me up and move the next day if needed. Each year my goal is to me ina condition that we could move without consideration.

Pp can you share how you deep clean other areas? I’m
Impressed.

+1 Do you have a blog where you break down the specifics of how you clean each area? I'm feeling inspired but also overwhelmed by everything you listed.

Can you please start a cleaning company that does just THIS to the whole house? There will certainly be demand!

Will carpet spray foam work if the vacuum cleaner also doesn’t reach the area by the baseboard? Ore there extra small carpet cleaners out there? I’m fine with trying to clean it with a brush by hand — but worry that if I can’t follow with a power rinsing or power drying that it might create other problems if the carpet shampoo isn’t thoroughly removed.

I plan to do a major clean out throughout the month of January. Then I’ll follow up with clearing more things out and doing donations during Lent.
Purging my closets will take at least a day EACH.
