Replace Bath Mat After Two Years

With good upkeep—wash them every week, hang them to dry after every shower—your bath mats don’t need to be replaced until they begin to show signs of wear and tear. Or after two years—whichever comes first. Bath mats see as much action as your bath towels do, so if you pick up any signs that it’s past its prime, don’t hesitate to swap it out.

Prevent Shower Mildew

Prevent mold and mildew by running the fan for at least 15 minutes after every bath and shower. You can also zap moisture by opening a window and leaving the door open, even a crack, to help it dissipate.

Clean This One Spot

Scientists tell us that the dirtiest spot in your fridge is actually the vegetable drawer. Empty it, pull it out, then wash it in the sink with dish soap and water. Dry completely with paper towels before replacing it in the fridge. Get into the habit of doing this about once a month.

Don't Forget Your Throw Pillows

Covers should be washed regularly, about once a month, depending on how often they're used. Fillers can be washed at least every other month: Check the label to see if you can throw them in your washing machine.

Wash Your Curtains

Vacuum your curtains regularly, and if you can, launder them twice a year—we recommend using the daylight saving time changes as your biannual reminder.

What Not to Store Here

We've always kept paint cans in the garage, but turns out that temperature variations are basically the worst thing for paint, so it's not recommended. The other thing to reconsider? Old refrigerators. Upgrading to an energy-efficient model can end up saving money in the long run.

Clean While You Work

As you're doing your decluttering/reorganization, keep your wet-dry vacuum on hand to clean out everything before you put it back. Make sure you're not storing any dirt, loose junk, or suspect puddles in your newly organized garage.
