Flowers are blooming, birds are singing, days are getting longer, and you might just be thinking about all those “spring cleaning” tasks that you haven’t done in a year (or maybe more). Spring cleaning is hugely popular in the US, with 69% of Americans saying their household does at least some spring cleaning every year.

The phrase “spring cleaning” may conjure up pleasant images of windows thrown open to the breeze, snowy fresh linens, and sparkling floors. But there is actually a better way to plan for those deep cleaning tasks that aren’t part of a weekly cleaning routine.

Premier Cleaning Means You Don’t Need an Annual Spring Cleaning

Many people who purchase a routine house-cleaning service to tackle the weekly essentials like vacuuming end up paying for deep cleaning, often as a spring cleaning. That’s because tasks like hand-washing the baseboards, deep-cleaning the refrigerator, and wiping down door frames aren’t part of a routine cleaning.

Over the course of a year, dirt accumulates in areas of the house, and this results in the need for a spring cleaning or deep clean. With the Premier Cleaning service from My Amazing Maid, we offer a better approach than leaving deep cleaning tasks to do all at once by spreading out the tasks throughout the year. This way, your home never has a large volume of deep cleaning tasks piling up. Instead, your home stays cleaner all year.

How Does Premier Cleaning Work?

With our Premier Cleaning service, we spread out the deep cleaning tasks over a six-month period. Once we complete the six months, we start over again! This way, your home effectively receives two deep cleanings per year, and the tasks (and dirt) don’t get a chance to pile up.

What do we mean by “deep cleaning”? We deep vacuum upholstered furniture in main living areas using a special upholstery tool, hand wash door facings, door trim, window trim and window sills, hand wash baseboards, deep clean the inside of the refrigerator, clean the inside of the oven and under the stovetop, and damp-wipe kitchen and bathroom cabinetry. Remember, we knock out all of these traditional spring cleaning tasks in a six-month rotation, then start over again. This keeps your house cleaner all year!

Why Choose the My Amazing Maid Premier Cleaning?

Premier Cleaning offers the advantage of keeping your home cleaner throughout the year. It is certainly enjoyable (while it lasts) to have an ultra-clean home for a relatively short period after a deep cleaning. But part of why a house feels so clean after a spring cleaning is because it was dirty before. 

Wouldn’t it be better to avoid the dirty house in the first place? With our Premier Cleaning package, you’re getting two deep cleans annually, and spreading the services out so that your house is never in need of a full deep clean all at once.

You’re at the grocery store and you stumble down the cleaning aisle – hundreds upon hundreds of products in brightly colored spray bottles and jugs all claiming to make the chore of cleaning easier. It may be tempting to pick up a new glass cleaner that promises to have your windows and mirrors spotless and streak-free, but before you put it in your cart, have you ever thought to look at the back and see the endless list of ingredients? Most common household cleaners contain harsh chemical cocktails that can ultimately end up affecting your health and your home. My Amazing Maid, your trusted house cleaner in Columbus, Georgia, proudly uses eco-friendly cleaning products such as Biokleen (made with citrus and grapefruit seed extract), glass cleaners containing vinegar rather than ammonium, heavily filtered deionized water (DI water), and one of our all-time favorites: Bon Ami. Check out some of the reasons why My Amazing Maid opts to use eco-friendly cleaners.

• Healthier Home

Once you go green, you’ll be introducing fewer chemicals into your home. Every time you spray a fabric cleaner laden with harsh chemicals onto your furniture, those chemicals become airborne. They can be breathed in, stick to your clothes, and on your skin. Many conventional household cleaning products pose risks such as chemical burns on your skin and eyes. Studies have also shown that using a household cleaning spray, even as little as once a week, increases the risk of developing asthma. When you and your family’s health is on the line, why take the chance when you can use green, eco-friendly cleaners instead?

• Cleaner Environment

Naturally, when you use cleaners that contain harsh, corrosive chemicals in your home, those chemicals can be released into the environment. This pollutes the air we breathe in and the water we drink and use. By using eco-friendly cleaning products we can reduce the amount of pollution we contribute to our atmosphere. Oftentimes, green cleaning products also come in recyclable packaging which can also help reduce waste.

• Better Knowledge of the Ingredients

It’s no secret that many of the ingredients on the back of products in stores nowadays are unpronounceable. Not knowing what these ingredients and compounds are could be doing more harm than good. A pro to using eco-friendly products is that a lot of them use natural ingredients that are known to be healthier substitutes for the 76 letter words you’ll find on the back of your hardwood floor cleaner. For example, an ingredient in some conventional glass cleaners is butyl cellosolve. This toxic agent has been linked with liver and kidney damage in humans. A perfectly fine substitute is vinegar-based cleaners. Vinegar is a spectacular cleaner that will get your windows clean and streak-free without the potential risk of kidney damage. 

• Fewer Antibacterials

Now this one may sound a little controversial, but as studies have been conducted, we have learned from the FDA that using antibacterial products isn’t as helpful as people initially thought. Washing your hands with antibacterial soap isn’t any better than washing your hands with regular soap. In fact, the American Medical Association claims that the frequent use of antibacterial products can actually promote resistance to antibiotics in the bacteria! 

• Not Tested on Animals

Lastly, but certainly, not least, eco-friendly cleaning products are not tested on animals. This means that you can clean guilt-free while knowing that none of your furry friends were harmed in the making of your house cleaner.
