Starting a clean slate is often expected when we move into a new space. Unfortunately, it is normal to feel a little down when you walk into your new home to notice that the slate is not as clean as you thought it would be. as long as you know the different overlooked areas you should clean before moving in, you can still have your new beginning you are looking for. With this in mind, we at American Hometown Services would like to share the topmost overlooked areas you should clean, in addition to the general cleaning, before moving in.

Clean Vents & Ceiling Fan Blades

Upon arrival at your new home, you might find yourself sneezing. Due in part to dirty fan blades sprinkling your home with dust, your sneezing could be environmental. As these areas are prone to harboring sneeze-inducing dust, your air vents could be a culprit as well. Similarly, to cleaning your lights, clean your blades and vents while using a wet rag with soapy water.

Remove Caked on Dust from Ceiling Fixtures

Since they tend to be in hard-to-reach areas, ceiling light fixtures are tricky to clean. If you want to get those dusty areas, these lights usually require disassembly also. Not only will feel better but cleaning your ceiling lights will make things look brighter. Remove the sconces and use a wet rag with some soap to wipe off the dust to clean your lights and let them dry completely before installing them again.

Clean Greasy Dust On Top of Cabinets

Even the top of your cupboards can get dirty, they are just usually out of sight and out of mind. Being the result in a sticky, dusty film that settles on your cupboards, the steam and oils rise to the top of your kitchen as you cook. You will need soap and a sponge to scrub it away to remove this grime.

Clean Window Tracks

Only to find yourself taken aback by the unsightly dust build-up on your window tracks, you have likely gone to open your windows for some fresh air and to enjoy the view. Being why they are one of the most overlooked areas you should clean before moving in is because we rarely think to clean our window tracks. Since they are usually in one’s line of sight when sitting, your tracks are in an area that many people tend to notice, so ensure you clean them.
