Read more for all the details on 5+ Spring to Summer Cleaning Must Do’s.
I feel like my weekends have been filled with a whole lot of cleaning and home refreshing lately!
The sun is out and it’s been really nice to give the house a good clean and prep for a nice relaxing summer. I find summer more of my lazy time during the year as it’s too hot to really do much and I love going out for lake days.
If you know me at all, you’d love that I am a terrible cleaner and I’m often disorganized but I also thrive in a clutter-free home. I try and live as a minimalist-ish and be more intentional with my purchases and making sure that I am purchasing what I want not for convenience or price but for quality and intent.
I try and keep things tidy as much as I could but I also value my time and if any cleaning doesn’t get done then I’m okay with it and not hard on myself to complete on another day or so.

I really wanted a clear mind and focused on cleaning up this time around so I wanted to share the 5 things that really set myself up to switch from Spring to Summer Cleaning.
Is there anything distinct that you do to switch your home from Spring to Summer? I’d love to know in the comments below!
HERE ARE MY 5 Spring to Summer Cleaning Must Do’s:
Flip Mattress
I only learned this one recently but I got this tip from a fellow blogger, Kayleigh Zara and her post on 7 Ways To Prepare Your Home For Summer! I flipped my mattress a few weeks ago and it is a game-changer!
Clean A/C Filters
This is only applicable to people who have A/C! My husband and I invested in our A/C system 2 years ago and it was the best investment for the summer! We don’t like really hot weather and feel uncomfortable at home. The downside is obviously this needs to be put in a smaller room to actually cool.
Ensure that the filters are cleared up before turning it on in the summer!
Wash and Fluff All Cushions
I like washing all my cushion covers and fluffing out all the couch and lawn furniture pillows! Spraying some extra Febreze makes it super fresh too!

Door Mats
We have two entrances. One back and front -both with mats. Throughout the Fall/Winter seasons, you’ll accumulate a lot of dirt, leaves and pebbles from your shoes/boots so it’s nice to clear that out and have clean doormats!
Wash Linen Tote Bags
This one is something I often forget but I use tote bags when I go grocery shopping and go for picnics so I forget that I can wash them! They definitely don’t need to be washed that often unless they get dirty quick but a few times a year is nice.
I included it in this list because there are lots of Farmer’s Markets that are opened in the summer and it’ll be great to have clean bags to haul your gorgeous fresh treats and produce in!
This one is a short list but definitely must-have’s to kick into Summer mode! Everyone gets super crazy about Spring cleaning that we often forget about the transition to Summer Cleaning as well!
What do you do for your home for Summer Cleaning?! I’d love to know in the comments below!

God I wish we had AC filters in the UK to clean! We don’t have AC units in our homes because it doesn’t get hot enough usually but on the freak occasion when we have a heatwave, it is unbearable! Great tips 🙂 x
Haha! Thank you for reading, Jenny xx
Lovely post! I always forget about the couch cushions haha. Thanks for remind me xx
Totally! Such an easy thing to forget! Thank you for stopping by x
I’m such a horrible cleaner. I always feel like I need to do it all at once, so am trying to embrace the idea of cleaning one small area at a time. Cleaning windows and window tracks are a big one on the to-do list. Now that my windows are open to the fresh air it’s easy to notice how dirty they are after winter.
Yup! On the same boat. Thank you for reading, Alison x
I did a massive Spring clean last weekend. I love cleaning and it was my excuse to pull furniture out and give it a really thorough washing!
Rosie
Amazing! It makes the home feel so fresh after! Thank you for stopping by, Rosie x
These are all great tips Lynn! I am the worse one at cleaning at home so this is a great reminder to start washing all the tote bags and the cushions! I tend to clean only when I am anxious about something, so it doesn’t work that well. Thank you for sharing x

Growing up in Texas I ALWAYS had A/C but now in Denmark I don’t & I miss it!
Anyways these are great things to do & I need to flip my mattress & clean the door mat too!
Right! I just Googled the temp in Denmark and it seems fairly cool most times and really cold during January! Definitely wouldn’t have A/C haha Thank you for reading! xx
Even right now in May it’s 44F so it is cooler but during the summer it can get up to the 80s & it would be nice to have A/C haha
