As the weather begins to cool and the days become shorter, many of us spend more time indoors. Fall is the perfect season to refresh your home, organize your spaces, and prepare for cozy evenings with family and friends.
Instead of waiting until spring to deep clean, a simple fall cleaning routine can help create a cleaner, more comfortable home before the holiday season begins.
Here's your complete fall cleaning checklist to help you get started.
Refresh High-Touch Surfaces
As everyone returns to school, work, and busy schedules, surfaces throughout the home tend to collect fingerprints, spills, and everyday messes.
Take a few minutes to wipe down:
- Kitchen countertops
- Cabinet handles
- Light switches
- Door handles
- Dining tables
- Bathroom counters
Our All-Purpose Cleaner makes everyday cleaning simple. It's made with naturally derived ingredients and is safe for many household surfaces, including granite, quartz, marble, glass, and wood.
If you're cleaning throughout the day, our All-Purpose Cleaning Wipes are perfect for quick touch-ups around the house.
Deep Clean Your Kitchen
Fall often means more home-cooked meals, baking, and family gatherings.
Before the busy season begins:
- Clean inside the refrigerator
- Wipe pantry shelves
- Degrease the stovetop
- Clean the microwave
- Wash cabinet fronts
- Organize spices and baking supplies
Don't forget your sink and dishes.
Our Solid Dish Soap paired with the Bamboo Cleaning Brush helps tackle everyday dishwashing while reducing plastic waste.
Freshen Up Your Laundry Routine
Summer activities often leave behind towels, blankets, and clothes that need a good wash before they're stored away.
This is a great time to:
- Wash comforters and blankets
- Clean pet bedding
- Wash reusable shopping bags
- Refresh throw blankets
- Clean your washing machine
Our Laundry Detergent Powder is a naturally made option that helps keep everyday laundry clean and fresh for the season ahead.
Give Bathrooms a Seasonal Refresh
Bathrooms are one of the busiest rooms in any home.
Add these tasks to your checklist:
- Clean mirrors
- Wipe faucets
- Scrub sinks and tubs
- Clean high-touch surfaces
- Replace worn towels
- Organize cabinets and drawers
Keeping your bathroom clean makes daily routines feel a little easier.
Tidy Up Your Entryway
Fall often brings muddy shoes, backpacks, jackets, and sports gear indoors.
Take a few minutes to:
- Sweep or vacuum the floor
- Wipe benches and storage shelves
- Organize shoes and boots
- Shake out or clean doormats
- Declutter baskets and hooks
A clean entryway helps keep dirt from spreading throughout your home.
Wash Fresh Fall Produce
Fall is filled with seasonal favorites like apples, pears, squash, and pumpkins.
Before eating or cooking, wash your produce with our Fruit & Veggie Wash. Pair it with the Bamboo Cleaning Brush to gently clean firm produce and help remove dirt from the surface.
It's a simple step that fits naturally into your kitchen routine.
Add a Fresh Seasonal Touch
Once your home is clean, finish with a light, welcoming scent.
Our Aromatic Mist is available in:
- Lavender
- Geranium
- Orange Zest
- Lemongrass Sage
Spritz it in bedrooms, bathrooms, living spaces, or guest rooms to create a cozy atmosphere you'll enjoy all season long.
Stock Up with Refills
Fall can be a busy time, and running out of your favorite cleaning essentials is never convenient.
If you already use our All-Purpose Cleaner, our 32 oz Refill refills two 16 oz spray bottles, helps reduce packaging waste, and keeps you ready for everyday cleaning.
It's an easy way to stay prepared while making a more sustainable choice.
