Everyone
has heard of spring-cleaning, but many do not realize doing a thorough fall
cleaning is just as important in keeping you home clutter-free and organized. Even
if you just moved into your new Bryan-CollegeStation home, you will still likely need to get your home ready for winter.
You might be thinking, “I am in Texas, why do I need to get ready for winter?”
Well, although you may never see one snowflake, there will be bone-chilling
days and nights throughout the season. Therefore, packing up all the clothing
and items you are not going to need, will make room for the things you do.
Wardrobe Makeover
During
the warmer months, you are most likely to sport lightweight clothing in efforts
to keep cool. However, during late fall and winter you will need to remove
these items from your wardrobe to make room for clothing options such as
sweaters, jeans, and jackets. This is also a great time to weed out clothing
items you never wear and donate them to charity.
Summer Toy Inventory
Now
that winter is on its way, there will no longer be a need to have all the fun
summer toys scattered about taking up room in the garage. Deflate pool floats
and river tubes, toss out any broken items, and pack everything that is used at
the river or lake then take it to the attic for next year. If your summer toys
include “Big Boy/Girl Toys” like boats or Jet-Skis, a fall cleaning is the
ideal time to have them serviced and cleaned before taking them to storage.
Kitchen Pantry Overhaul
While
doing a fall cleaning, consider the food items you will be consuming during the
colder months. You can donate the items you want to replace with heartier foods
like soups and stews. Also, toss out any expired items. This will create room
for all the winter supplies you will be stocking up on.
No
matter if you just moved to CentralTexas or have lived in your home many years, doing a full home fall
cleaning will make the season transition easier. You will have a deep cleaned
house and will be ready for the colder temperatures. Where in the rules does it
say we have to wait until spring to get organized? Happy fall!
