It feels like just yesterday we were setting up the grill and planting our spring gardens. How does summer fly by so quickly, even when the days seem endless? It's a real puzzle. When you notice that crisp autumn breeze in the air, it's time to take action. We think this is the perfect moment to tackle a few chores: it’s neither too hot nor too wet, and certainly not too cold.
Let's start with the garage, a great spot to kick off your weekend cleaning routine. After a season full of outdoor adventures, take stock of what’s stored in your garage and declutter or reorganize anything that won't be needed during fall and winter.
This is also an excellent opportunity to clean and store your summer toys and garden tools while bringing out your rakes and shovels. As cars will soon need to move inside to avoid the weather, it’s important to tidy up your belongings, storing them neatly off the floor for more space. Wall shelving is a fantastic idea, and our skilled handymen can even assist with installation. If you've cleared out your garage and now have a pile of unwanted items on your driveway, don’t worry. Rümi is ready to help with junk removal—whether it's large or small!
While you’re at it, inspect the seal around your garage door and ensure it opens and closes smoothly. Any issues should be addressed now before the snow arrives. Finally, sweep the garage thoroughly to remove any dust and debris that has accumulated over the summer. Given the amount of salt, mud, and moisture that tracks in during winter, keeping your space clean now will make next year’s spring cleaning much easier.
Moving on to your camping gear, a telltale sign of a successful trip is messy equipment, especially if it was packed up in the rain. Spending time outdoors inevitably leads to dirt, bugs, soot, and various messes.
Before packing away your gear for long-term storage, give it some end-of-season TLC—clean, repair, and sort everything. Note any damage or special care instructions for future reference. For instance, which items need new batteries? Which equipment might require patching, repair, or replacement? This will set the stage perfectly for the next camping season.
Big-ticket items such as tents, tarps, sleeping bags, camping stoves, and cookware deserve extra attention after a summer of use. Lay everything out in your yard, driveway, or living room to make the process easier. Always follow the cleaning and warranty guidelines for each item. Our experts suggest using a vacuum or broom, hot soapy water, and a soft cloth to clean most gear. To save time, check labels to see which items are safe for dishwashers or washing machines and let your appliances do the heavy lifting.
Next, let’s address kitchen clutter. Once your last outdoor BBQ or margarita night is over, consider giving your kitchen and cabinets a thorough clean-out. Take a close look inside your fridge and pantry. Check for expired spices, dips, and those mysterious items lurking in the freezer’s depths. If you're feeling ambitious, empty everything, including your fridge and freezer, and wipe down all shelves and surfaces with a multi-purpose cleaner. Trust us, it’s worth the effort.
With your cupboards sparkling, are your drawers still chaotic? Organize your utensils and other items with drawer organizers. If you have time, run everything through the dishwasher first, then donate duplicates. Do you really need four melon ballers?
Finally, after the last rack of ribs or vegetable medley is grilled, clean your barbecue and tools. Refer to your manual for specific maintenance instructions. Don’t view August weekends as a goodbye to summer; instead, embrace them as a warm welcome to fall! Toast to the season by using up your summer herbs in a cocktail, like this Blue Flame Kitchen mojito iced tea. Cheers!
