Now is a great time to do some spring cleaning in your laundry room:
Washers:
- Run a cycle on hot with some bleach in there to kill/clean the insides or
- use a washing machine cleaner such as Affresh.
- Wipe everything down on the outside of the washer & dryer with some
- mild disinfectant and a rag.
- Make sure if you have a detergent/bleach drawer that it comes out, clean it
- out with hot water to get all the gunk out.
Dryers:
- Wipe down the inside of the dryer with a damp cloth getting any little lint.
- Clean out the lint drawer.
- If you have long vents, now is a great time to have them cleaned out by a
- professional company as most of the time this is not part of a laundry
- contract.
- Have your laundry company clean behind and inside the dryer panels to
- get rid of any excess lint.
Table & Misc. items:
- How do your tables look? Would you want to put your clothes on them
- clean or dirty?
- Do your dryer lines for clothes that people hang, need to be replaced or
- tightened?
How does your laundry room look and smell?
- Make it look clean and smell clean.
- A fresh coat of paint does wonders with a clean floor.
- Mild air freshener, nothing too strong.
- Change out or clean out your laundry room garbage cans, they can build
up a strong odor over time.
