Boxing Day Christmas Cleanup Checklist

Christmas is over! Chances are you’ve either just had a ton of guests tear through your home like a tornado made of people, or you’re about to host the extended family for some post-Christmas celebrating. Regardless of your particular situation, take some time today to get things ship-shape with the help of our Boxing Day cleanup checklist.

1) Clear Away the Gift Wrap

If you haven’t already, this one’s an absolute must for today. Sort out what you can re-use for next year and bag the leftovers, being sure to check what recycling programs your city or county has in place.

Give Your Kitchen a Once-Over

You don’t need to break out the oven cleaner today, but take some time to scrub away any errant ham juice that might be congealing on the countertops. Dreamy Christmas cuisine is a nightmare for your kitchen, so restore the equilibrium with a decent wipe down.

Scrub Your Toilets

Whether you’ve just finished playing host or are gearing up for a New Year’s gathering, your toilet could use a good scrubbing. While you’re at it, replace the trash bag, stock the toilet paper, wipe down the mirror and make sure there isn’t anything super embarrassing in your medicine cabinet.

Hit the Car Wash

Share the spirit of the season by treating your car to a little extra love. The salt and dirt that gets kicked up on winter roads can wreak havoc on your paint job, so take some time today to give your chariot a buff and polish.
