Moving in - what would you clean?

[mrsrigsby]

FH and I are moving to our new apartment in two days. The place has been totally renovated - new floors, new appliances, everything. We're the first people to live there. Obviously I'm going to dust & vacuum, but is there any "deep cleaning" I should do? Normally I would clean the oven/fridge, but if they haven't been used, I don't wanna waste time.

I think you're supposed to run the self cleaning feature on the oven before use, otherwise I would just wipe everything down quickly. Construction dust gets everywhere!

Also, look at the air filter to make sure you're starting off with a new one. Otherwise, enjoy your new place

I'd clean the bathroom and get an air purifier going in there to help with the dust.

Congrats on your new place! Not a cleaning, but organizing suggestion. Hang all your clothes with the hanger hooking from the back side. Once you wear something, hang it the right way. At the end of the season you will know what you've worn and what you haven't. It makes going through your closet so easy.

I always clean the bathroom,particularly the bathtub, no matter what. I just can't use a tub without cleaning it myself.

I agree with pp. Sounds like you don't have to do too much!

That's a great idea!
