20 Summer Cleaning and Decluttering Checklists

Whether you have kids, grandkids or you are doing these projects yourself, it’s easier with a game plan. Take a look at these decluttering and cleaning checklists to get inspired to start cleaning and organizing!

Get the entire family involved. Give everyone tasks that work well for their age and capabilities. It takes some pressure off of you to get everything done, plus it gives them something to be proud of, too.
Gather supplies before you begin. Make sure you have plenty of cleaning supplies, gloves for dirty projects, and other items you need. Having everything ready to go prevents those last-minute trips to the store mid-project.
Host a yard sale, or donate unused items. Summer is the ideal time of year to have a yard sale or declutter your home. Get rid of the stuff that doesn’t have a place anymore!
Don’t do it all in one day! Spread the workload throughout the season so you don’t end up overwhelmed or quitting the project.
