QotD: Spring Cleaning

Are you planning on doing any spring cleaning this year? If so, please share a cleaning tip you swear by.

What do I swear by? Have someone else do it!!! No, just kidding :) I'm actually pretty "particular" about how the cleaning is done around the apartment - which is a good thing because Paul is not. His family was very different from my family when it comes to cleaning - and I fight with it all the time.

All joking aside though, I was considering having someone come in and really clean the apartment before we left for Scotland. Both of the animals will be gone and to come home to a still clean apartment sounds like slipping into a hot bath after a long day - heaven. A lot of cleaning services have what are called "Spring Cleaning" specials and I'm hoping to jump on one of those. Who knows, maybe I'll ask my dad to arrange to have the carpets cleaned to. What better time, right?
