As we bid goodbye to the gloomy winter season, refreshing our homes with a thorough deep clean is not just a tradition, but a necessity.

To ensure your spring cleaning process is successful, IOL looks at 10 essential tools to have at your disposal.

1. Bucket

When you're moving from room to room, a sturdy bucket is an essential tool for carrying materials and combining cleaning solutions.

2. Squeegee

A squeegee is ideal for keeping windows and shower doors streak-free. It's also useful for cleaning large mirrors and glass surfaces.

3. Scrub Brush

Hard stains and filth on several areas such as floors, counters, and bathroom fixtures can be effectively removed with a scrub brush.

4. Reusable spray bottle

When mixing your cleaning solutions, reusable spray bottles can come in handy to put in your mixed solutions.

5. Clean microfibre cloth

Clothes are versatile and effective. They are suitable for cleaning, wiping surfaces, and even polishing without leaving visible marks.

6. Disinfectant

For germ-prone areas like the bathroom or kitchen, you'll want a product more heavy-duty than the standard all-purpose cleaner. This tool is one of the most important cleaning supplies you can have this spring cleaning.

7. Vacuum

A vacuum is useful for cleaning carpets, upholstery, floors and hard to reach areas that collected dust and dirt during winter season.

8. Gloves

Gloves help you protect your hands while you clean, especially when using cleaning solutions that contain harsh chemicals.

9. Trash Bag

During spring cleaning, a trash bag is necessary to place items for donation or disposal.

10. Scented fragments

Scented fragments can be used to freshen up the scent of your home once your spring cleaning is complete and satisfied.
