As the weather warms up and summer approaches, our minds turn to fresh starts. Spring-cleaning is one of the best ways to welcome the new season, and here are a few tips and tricks to make sure the clean up goes smoothly.
Use Eco-Friendly Cleaners
Organic and eco-friendly cleaning products are better for your health and your home. The good news is that the supply of good-for-you cleaning products is on the rise so prices are dropping. It’s very likely you can find a biodegradable cleaning product that’s priced almost the same as a regular product. Metro grocery store at Yonge and Eglinton has a great selection of natural, organic, and biodegradable products. Try one and breathe easier.
Storage solutions
Once you’ve gone through your closets and drawers, it’s a good idea to make sure you’re organizing as you’re putting everything back. Kitchen Stuff Plus and Solutions are in the neighbourhood and full of storage solutions from the small to the big. You’ll find everything you need to get your house back in order this year.
Donations
It’s likely that once you’ve cleaned out the house, you’ll find a few items that your family doesn’t need anymore. If this is the case, be sure to donate these things to others who could make good use of them. Drop off donations at Goodwill on St. Clair Avenue West or call the Canadian Diabetes Clothesline to arrange a curbside pick up right from your home.
And while you’re thinking about “freshening up”, book your family’s dentist appointments this spring too. Before everyone heads off for summer fun, take care of your dental hygiene and you’ll feel fully refreshed. Make an appointment today !
