Part 2 of the Dust Queen Move Series
You’ve signed the papers, the keys are in hand, and your new home is finally yours. But before you unpack and settle in, there’s one more important step—making sure your new space is truly clean. In Part 2 of our Move Series, we’re helping you make your move-in experience feel like a fresh, healthy start.
Why Clean Before You Unpack?
Even if your new home looks clean, hidden dust, residue from previous occupants, and lingering odors can remain. Cleaning before your furniture and boxes arrive ensures that every corner of your new space is fresh, hygienic, and welcoming from day one.
Top-to-Bottom Cleaning Priorities
Focus on these tasks for a truly deep clean:
- Sanitize all kitchen and bathroom surfaces, especially counters, sinks, and faucets.
- Wipe down shelves inside cabinets and drawers before lining them.
- Clean baseboards, light switches, and doorknobs to remove dust and germs.
- Wash windows and window tracks to brighten your space and improve air flow.
- Vacuum and mop floors to eliminate dirt tracked in from the move.
Small Details with a Big Impact
Replace air filters, wipe down inside the fridge, and make sure there’s no debris left in the washer or dryer. Give attention to any lingering smells by using a natural deodorizer like baking soda or citrus. Taking care of these little details early helps you avoid bigger cleaning headaches later on.
Moving In with Confidence
A clean home isn’t just about looks—it’s about comfort and peace of mind. You deserve to walk into your new space feeling safe, settled, and ready to create new memories.
