No matter when you are reading this post, it is never too late to Spring Clean! Call it summer clean if you need to, but really it just means a fresh start. We’ve got some expert tips to help you get started with your office spring clean:
- Tackle the piles of paper first. You can’t actually clean your desk if it’s covered in papers.
- Catch up on your filing. Once you recycle the paperwork you no longer need, make sure to utilize a filing system to store the papers you need to keep.
- Clean the spaces you’ve forgotten about all year! A fresh start includes making sure EVERYTHING is clean. This includes the places you normally don’t think about—tops of cubicles, behind your computer, the crumbs lodged in your keyboard, your filing cabinets.
- Disinfect all the high-touch areas. You might want to do this one more than just during spring cleaning. High-touch areas include phone, keyboard, headsets, desktops, as well as doorknobs and handles.
- Spring clean your air too! Did you know that indoor air is 5x dirtier than outdoor air? YIKES! If you don’t already have an air purifier, what are you waiting for? If you do already have one, now is a good time to check the filter and swap it out if needed.
