The best part about this free spring cleaning checklist is that it breaks down the rooms to clean in your house in an easy-to-use way. That means that you’ll be able to clean the areas and keep track of the biggest areas that need the most attention as well.

I love using this thorough cleaning checklist in that way because it helps me stay on track and stay on course.

Entryway

The cleaning list for the entryway might be short, but it’s like the tip of an iceberg. A lot is going on beneath the surface.

Decluttering your entryway closet is the most time-consuming task. Once you finish reorganizing, keeping the closet tidy will be so much easier!

Sweep, vacuum & mop floors
Wipe baseboards
Clean entrance mats
Declutter closet

Kitchen

Even if you’re regularly doing maintenance cleaning in the kitchen, a more thorough approach is needed every once in a while. Spring cleaning is the perfect time to deep-clean your kitchen and eating area!

Deep clean appliances such as your coffee maker and toaster
Sweep, vacuum & mop floors
Clean areas behind appliances

Wipe baseboards
Wipe & sanitize countertops

Living Room

Making your living room nice is not just for welcoming guests to a clean home. This is the room where the entire family relaxes, and it’s a much more pleasant experience when the room is tidy.

Wipe & polish furniture
Dust surfaces, light fixtures & tops of electronics
Wipe screens & remotes
Wipe baseboards & power cords.
Remove clutter

Bathrooms

There’s lots of stuff to do when cleaning a bathroom, and this list will make sure you don’t forget anything. This is a place that can quickly get cluttered with personal products, so the occasional purge will clear up a lot of space!

Bedrooms

One of the most important parts of having a clean bedroom is organizing closets and dressers. This will help you have a place for any item and avoid seeing a room full of clothes lying around.

Sweep, vacuum floors & mop
Vacuum & rotate mattress
Dust & wipe surfaces & light fixtures
Declutter closet & dressers
Launder & replace linens
Store off-season clothing

Laundry Room

As ironic as that might be, the laundry room won’t clean itself. You’ll also need to manage laundry storage and make an inventory of cleaning products. Once you get rid of old or empty products and create the storage space you need, laundry days will be so much easier!

Wipe down the washing machine & dryer exterior
Sanitize washer & dryer
Replace old & empty products
Fold & put away any laundry

Whole House

These tasks need to be done pretty much everywhere. It’s good to do them once you are finished with the room-by-room cleaning.

Wipe railings, doors, light switches, trim & baseboards
Organize documents, mail & shred unnecessary paperwork
Declutter drawers

Garage & Basement

The garage and basement are those areas where we tend to store everything that doesn’t have a place in the house. That includes items that are broken or we no longer use. Reorganize these areas, and you’ll free up a ton of storage space you forgot you even had!

Sweep floors
Wipe shelving
Organize bins & tools
Donate or trash unwanted items

Outdoors

A nice porch and backyard require a ton of work. However, if you split these tasks across a few days, they’ll look like new, and you won’t end up exhausted.

Organize shed
Sweep walkways, porch, stairs & patio
Powerwash driveway
Replace old decor
Wipe & wash patio furniture
Clean gutters
