Steps:

1. Clear the Clutter:

2. Dust and Vacuum:
   • Start by dusting all surfaces in the laundry room, including shelves, cabinets, and light fixtures. Use a microfiber cloth or a duster for this task.
   • Vacuum the floors, making sure to get into corners and along the baseboards. Use vacuum attachments to clean behind and underneath appliances.
3. Wipe Down Surfaces:
   • Use an all-purpose cleaner to wipe down all surfaces, including countertops, shelves, and the exterior of your washer and dryer. Don’t forget to clean the control panels and knobs.
4. Clean the Sink and Faucet:
   • If you have a sink in your laundry room, clean it with a disinfectant or a mixture of baking soda and water. Scrub the faucet, handles, and drain thoroughly.
5. Wash the Windows:
   • Clean the windows and window sills using glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth. Don’t forget to clean any window blinds or curtains as well.
6. Clean Appliances:
   • Remove lint and dust from the dryer’s lint trap and the vent hose.
   • Clean the washing machine drum and rubber gasket with a mixture of white vinegar and water. Run an empty hot water cycle to eliminate any residues.
   • Wipe down the exterior of the washer and dryer with a damp cloth.
   • Clean the exterior of other appliances like irons, steamers, or sewing machines.
7. Wash the Floor:
   • Mop the floor with a suitable floor cleaner, paying attention to any stains or spills. If you have tiles or grout, use a brush to scrub away grime.
8. Inspect and Organize:
   • As you clean, inspect your laundry supplies, detergent, and other items. Dispose of any expired or unused products.
   • Organize the items you’ve removed from the laundry room and return only the essentials. Consider adding shelving or storage solutions to keep things tidy.
9. Lint Removal:
   • Use a lint roller or vacuum attachment to remove lint and dust from the back of your dryer and washer and their surrounding areas.
10. Replace Bulbs:
    • Check the laundry room’s lighting and replace any burnt-out bulbs.
