Pre-Holiday Cleaning Checklist: Your Ultimate Guide to Prepping Before the Holidays

At Sweepsouth, we understand that the holiday season is as exciting as it is busy! Between planning meals, organising decorations, and coordinating family gatherings, the last thing you need is extra stress from cleaning. That’s why we’ve put together this ultimate pre-holiday cleaning checklist to help you get your home celebration-ready in no time. Whether you’re tackling these tasks on your own or enlisting one of our SweepStars, you’ll find this guide makes holiday prep a breeze.

Here’s the top 5 items that should be on your pre-holiday cleaning checklist:

1. Declutter and organise.

Before any deep cleaning, decluttering is essential. Go through key areas like your living room, entryways, and guest spaces to tidy up and organise items that may have piled up. Clear surfaces, tidy up knick-knacks, and stow away any non-essential items to create a more spacious, inviting environment. If you need a hand, a SweepStar can help take on those big pre-holiday decluttering projects!

2. Deep clean your kitchen.

The kitchen is the heart of every home, especially during the festive season. We recommend emptying the fridge of anything that’s expired, then giving shelves and drawers a wipe-down. Clean the oven, stovetop, and counters to ensure a sparkling, hygienic space for preparing meals. Book a SweepStar for a thorough kitchen clean so you can relax and focus on creating those delicious holiday recipes.

3. Refresh your living room.

Your living room will likely be the main gathering area, so give it a little extra love. Dust surfaces like shelves, tables, and light fixtures. Clean glass surfaces to get rid of smudges, and vacuum or mop floors for a spotless finish. If you need a hand, our SweepStars are pros at transforming high-traffic spaces into fresh, welcoming areas.

4. Spruce up the bathrooms.

Give your bathroom a deep clean to make sure it’s ready for guests. Scrub toilets, sinks, and showers, and add fresh hand towels and toilet paper. SweepStars know exactly how to keep bathrooms spotless, leaving your guests with a sparkling impression.

5. It’s final touch time!

Bring the festive spirit into each room with a few decorations, scented candles, or fresh flowers. A SweepStar can help you dust and polish surfaces so you can add those special touches with ease.

Let Sweepsouth handle the cleaning so you can enjoy a beautifully prepared home, perfect for making memories with family and friends!
