Fancy a spot of Spring Cleaning?
You might not know it, but your desk is a haven for bacteria and so much can be hiding beneath your keyboard and mouse. Research has shown that up to 10 million bacteria live on your desk! With that in mind, there’s no better time to have a proper clean of your home or work office.
Not sure where to start? We’re here to give you a helping hand.
Start with Your Desk
Once you’ve thrown away all the clutter and rubbish and put your files in order, you’ll want to remove everything off your desk and give it a deep clean. Try Dettol for a powerful antibacterial cleanser, or Ecover for an Eco-Friendly clean.
After giving all your surfaces a deep clean, you can now move on to the fun stuff and organise your space with Draw Sets! Choose from a variety of colours to brighten up your space and organise all your important documents and files.
Don’t Forget your Desktop Accessories
Mice, keyboards, monitors and phones all get mucky too, often without you realising. When was the last time you cleaned in between the keys on your keyboard, or wiped the underside of your mouse? It has probably been a while!
Take this as your reminder to clean all your accessories! We’d recommend having a look through our Workstation Wipes to help you maximise workplace hygiene and protect your equipment for longer. These are designed to keep your electronics clean and safe for longer.
Declutter Walls and Screens
Once you’ve cleaned your desk don’t forget to look up! If there are bits of paper and notes you’ve been hanging onto for a while, use this as your opportunity to go through them. Whether you have corkboards or wall calendars full of notes, there are bound to be some papers you can get rid of.
This will likely be the case for desktop monitors filled with Post-it notes and scraps of paper, so make sure to clean all your wall accessories and go through all your notes too.
Refresh Your Communal Office Space
For those of you who work in an office, it might be time to refresh your communal spaces. Whether you’ve got a kitchen, break room or meeting room, all of those could probably do with a refresh.
Browse through our range of Cleaning Chemicals and Accessories which are perfect for everyday and office use. Mop the floors, clean the sides and make sure those dishes are sparkling and there’s no mess cluttering up the sinks. Nobody likes to arrive at an office which isn’t clean and tidy, so take one for the team and indulge in a spot of spring cleaning. Your colleagues will be more than thankful for your efforts.

Now that you’ve done surfaces, desktops, floors and walls, don’t forget the windows! You’re bound to be looking out of the window more in the warmer months so why not use this opportunity to make sure they are fresh and clean?
