How to Deep Clean Apartment: An Ultimate Guide to a Spotless Home

Hey, Las Vegas apartment dwellers! Even if you live in a small space, sometimes things get messy. 

In this guide, we will explore how to deep clean apartment dwellings so they sparkle and you can transform your place from "meh" to "wow" – without feeling like a robot programmed to scrub and dust.

Step 1: Declutter Like a Pro

Too little space? That’s a fact about living in an apartment. You are probably struggling to figure out where to put everything. 

The first step to cleaning like a pro is to declutter. I’m sure you are twirling around with your hands raised in the air wondering where to start! 

Imagine decluttering is a treasure hunt, minus the pirates. Tackle those random drawers and closets full of whatnots you've been avoiding. 

Make it a party – invite a friend over and make it decluttering a blast (with snacks, obviously). 

The hard question - what to throw away? Haven't touched it in a year? Say goodbye. 

Honestly, after you declutter you'll feel lighter, and your apartment will too. You’ll have room to breathe and you might even take up meditation in your newfound Zen space. 

Learning how to clean apartment dwellings isn’t hard. It’s all about making the space you have seem roomy and clean! 

With an apartment, you want more bang for the buck so make the most of that space by saying goodbye to what you truly don’t need. 



Step 2: Dust Busting Adventure

Now, let’s wage war on dust. Don your favorite bandana (pirate-style, if you wish but forego the eyepatch because you’ll need both eyes to see the dust), and let’s get to it.

No dusty corner is safe from the top of the shelves to the depths of the baseboards.

Use your favorite dusting tool - pick between the new-fangled wands to an old-school feather duster or even a rag to make the dusty fly.

Pro tip: Use a damp microfiber cloth for the best dust-free results! 

Step 3: Kitchen and Bathroom Bootcamp

Moving on to the kitchen and bathroom, think of this as your fitness bootcamp but for cleaning.

Start with the shower doors – a splash of CLR and you're in business. 

Tackle those appliances and countertops like they're the last level of your favorite video game. 

Victory is a spotless kitchen and a gleaming bathroom.

Bathroom Tips: 

• Use a toilet bowl cleaner and brush to make the toilet sparkle. 
• Give the sinks a quick wipe-down. 
• Don’t forget the bathroom window where mold can accumulate from the humidity of a hot shower. 

Kitchen Tips: 

• Clean the ice maker in the fridge - it's an often overlooked place for mold and mildew. 
• If you have a glass top stove - use only an approved glass top cleaner and sponge set so you don’t scratch the surface. 
• Lightly buff any stainless steel appliances with a soft cloth so you can see your reflection. 

Step 4: Floor Fiesta

Floors last because of gravity - when you are cleaning the countertops and the cabinets crumbs and other grime can fall on the floor so you’ll want to wait to clean the floors. 

Grab a radio or turn the TV to a music channel (just don’t turn it up too loud because you don’t want to bother the neighbors) sweep, vacuum, and mop to your favorite tunes. 

Mix vinegar, rubbing alcohol, and water for a homemade cleaning solution that does the cha-cha on dirt and germs. Your floors will be so clean, you’ll want to dance on them.

Step 5: Window Wonderland

Let’s make those windows sparkle. Remember it’s not just about making the class crystal clear. 

Clear the window tracks, dust the casings, and then hit the glass with your best shot – of cleaner, that is. 

For a streak-free view of the Vegas skyline, go old school with cotton rags and a consistent wiping technique. 

Vinegar works great to clean the windows or you can use a commercial window cleaning solution. 

Step 6: Furniture Refresh

Furniture time! Vacuum, wipe, and polish until every piece is guest-ready. 

Pull off the cushions of the couches and chairs to get deep down. You don’t want to leave behind any crumbs or lost items. 

For those of you with furry friends, this is your moment to rid your couch of pet hair once and for all. Let your furniture shine like the top of the Stratosphere.

Step 7: Closet Chronicles

Okay, closets are catch-alls. It’s the whole - out-of-sight, out-of-mind mentality. 

If you shove a bunch of stuff in the closet to hide it then you are risking an avalanche when you open the doors! 

You’ll need to take a little time to empty, sort, clean, and repeat when tackling how deep clean apartment dwellings. 

Your closet is more than a space; it’s a fashion sanctuary. Treat it with care, and it will treat you to mornings free of “I have nothing to wear” meltdowns. 

Imagine your closet organized. Put where you wear frequently at the forefront so it's within easy reach. 

Stow unwanted items clear in the back - think of the back of the closet as the deep hull of your pirate ship! 

Step 8: Bedroom Bliss

Finally, the sanctuary of sleep – your bedroom. Freshen up your bedding, declutter under the bed and ensure every nook is dust-free.

Add a touch of fresh flowers or an essential oil diffuser for a serene sleep haven. 

Your bedroom is your retreat from the world so you want it to not only look clean but smell fresh. 

Wrap-Up: The Grand Finale

You've made it! Your Las Vegas apartment is now a sparkling oasis in the desert. 

Remember, when learning how to deep clean apartment dwellings, it isn’t a sprint; it’s a marathon with pit stops. 

Keep the vibe going with regular touch-ups, and your home will always be a retreat from the hustle and bustle of the Strip.

With this guide, you’ve got all the tips you need to keep your apartment in tip-top shape. Cheers to a cleaner, happier apartment!
