Dr. Beckmann’s 12-month cleaning calendar

January – Declutter and de-stress
New year, new you – January is the perfect time of year to declutter the home! Organising the home helps to provide a new focus and improves overall mental well-being. Preparing a rota for household tasks is a good way to keep track of everything that needs to be done.

February – Laundry love
The month of romance, so show your laundry some much needed TLC, by kickstarting February with a more eco-conscious and fabric friendly laundry detergent. Dr. Beckmann’s Magic Leaves Laundry Detergent Sheets come with 90% less packaging than traditional detergents, each sheet ensures a deep clean and radiant freshness – even at low temperatures! Watch as the product dissolves in under 60 seconds, ensuring your clothes aren’t left with sticky residue usually found with tabs.

March – Springtime spruce
With the warmer months on the horizon and the feeling of spring in the air, deep cleaning the home is the perfect way to reinforce a sense of positivity. Make sure to clean the top of kitchen cupboards, wardrobes, and bathroom cabinets to remove any hidden dust, then open the windows and let fresh air flow freely through the home.

April – Bright Whites
Air out your summer whites ready for the good weather and give them a new lease of life. Use the nation’s favourite specialist laundry whitener, Dr. Beckmann’s Glowhite or Glowhite ULTRA, to restore the freshness and leave your whites shining bright just in time for summer!

May – Windows
With brighter mornings and lighter evenings, May is a great time to tackle the windows, as sunlight will show up even the tiniest of smudges on the glass. Save money and time by not leaving the glass left unwiped – the longer it’s left the harder it will be to clean.

June – Invisible areas
As the summer draws in, June is the time to rearrange the furniture and update your home ready for the potential hosting of barbeques. Target invisible areas such as space under the bed, sofas, wardrobes and cabinets. Getting behind, under and around the furniture will ensure every area of your home is spick and span.

July – Summer spritz
Take advantage of long summer nights and the warmer weather by sprucing up your outdoor space, including tidying the garage, clearing gutters and drains, or simply adding flowers to the garden. All of these cleaning tasks can make a big difference, especially if you’re planning to host outdoor socials.

August – Fab-loo-ous toilet treatment
Use August as the month to tackle the toilet with Dr. Beckmann’s Power-Foaming Toilet Cleaner. Watch as the foam fizzes up to a mountain of fresh cleaning fun!

September – Detox
Time for an autumn clean, now the mayhem of summer activities is over it’s time to get your house prepped and ready as winter fast approaches. Target the most-used areas of the home, including the bathroom and kitchen. Also, if you have a porch area for coats and shoes, make sure this is organised and smelling fresh. Don’t forget to give your garden some TLC before it goes into hibernation until next year.

October – Floors
This is the best time for a deep clean of the carpet especially if you have pets, as hair and dirt will often be trodden deeper into the fibres of the carpet. If you’re one to decorate the house for Halloween, starting the clean early ensures that you are organised and feel more in control when the messiness of spooky season arrives. It is also a good idea to have Dr. Beckmann’s Carpet Stain Remover ready for any scary accidents and spills that may happen on the 31st!

November – Storage
Take the time to clear out the attic, basement, or ‘messy’ room if you have one, ready for the festive holiday. When it comes to decorating the house for Christmas, starting the process in early November will help you feel organised and in control of your home so you know what decorations you already have and how much space there is for any new purchases (and of course presents!).

December – Appliances
Before the madness of the festive season arrives, remember to give all your kitchen surfaces along with the washing machine, dishwasher and oven, a deep clean ready for hosting duties. Dr. Beckmann recommends the Service-it Deep Clean Washing Machine and Dishwasher Cleaners to ensure your appliances are well maintained and protected from limescale and bacteria build up.

Dr. Beckmann spokesperson, Susan Fermor said: “Refreshing your home after the holidays can be a mammoth task, but following the step-by-step 12 month cleaning calendar will help people plan ahead and make the year run smoother, ensuring humble abodes across the country stay spick and span all year round!”
