by | Mar 25, 2025 | Others types of cleaning

Spring in Orlando isn’t just about warmer weather and blooming flowers—it’s the perfect time to refresh your home, declutter your space, and start the new season with clarity and cleanliness. Whether you’re doing it yourself or hiring a professional cleaning service like SAB Cleaning, a well-structured spring cleaning checklist can make the process smooth and satisfying.

Here’s your ultimate 2025 spring cleaning guide—customized for the unique needs of Orlando homes.

🌴 Why Spring Cleaning Is Important in Orlando

Unlike colder regions, Orlando doesn’t have a dramatic winter-to-spring shift—but pollen, humidity, and dust accumulation can quickly affect your home’s cleanliness and air quality.

Unique local challenges include:

  • Pollen buildup on windows, porches, and floors

  • Humidity contributing to mold and mildew

  • Sand and dirt from outdoor activities

  • Increased allergen levels in carpets and fabrics

That’s why a thorough spring clean is more than a tradition—it’s a necessity.
