Is this the place you will be moving in? how come the landlord didn’t clean it for you? It’s their responsibility to hand over the ultra clean apartment so you need not to scrub for a few months!
For cleaning.. Colorox Bleach should work but dont forget to turn on the exhaust fan and open all the windows in the house while you do that or better yet do it couple of days before you move there. Wear a mask and gloves while doing so because bleach can be very irritating and dangerous!
ps: I still believe the landlord should take care of it before you move in!
Dude i asked them, they said its our responsibility for reasonable cleaning. Ugh.
I’m moving in the next week or so, so i’m doing as much cleaning as i can.
I bought the gloves. abh gloves dirty hain, and i hate the mop (mr clean magic eraser…the handle was pink and purple!!!)
Ira:
I just use one cleaner for most of my cleaning needs_Oxyclean Scrub free or something like that. I spray it everywhere, in the shower, in the sink etc, leave it for a few mins and then scrub a tiny little bit.
For the wooden floors, i am not sure about swiffer since its been a long long time i have used it but i think it will be fine. You dont need special cleaners for it unless you want it to shine. In that case, the only one i know of is Murphy’s soap oil which is just mediocre. If not, then regular mop with water should do the trick. The thing is to never let wooden floors get too wet though, it can hurt the wood.
Like an idiot i left all my notes at home and was totally lost at Target
i bought scrubbing bubbles for the bathroom, windex vinegar for overall cleaning, and uh pinesol for the floors.
toh kya beht ke gol guppay khanay hain?
For the floors - there is a pledge hard wood floor cleaner. I would pinesol it first with a mop or swiffer and then do the pledge hard wood for the shine. (works on all types of floors)
For the Toilet and Fixtures - Lysol bathroom cleaner. Spray and leave it for about 2-3 hours - maybe even over night. And then you’ll gloves and those aluminum scrubing pads and scrub away. There is tons of water build up. After that you can apply a can of build up resistant spray OR you can take a can of metalic spray paint for piping and spray away to get a nice clean finish.
For the bathroom floor - at the bottom - I would take a scrapper (from home depot) they are use to pic up paint or to smooth grout. Wood handles, steel base and get rid of all the stuff in corner. Once it’s clean. Take white grout and grout the edges that meet the wall with the corner of the floor.
Good luck
ill try leaving it on overnight when I move in…
good for you. crossing u off the list for housewarming party
