Moving home is often claimed to be one of the most stressful events a person can go through in their life. Whether this is true for you, is of course entirely subjective, but most cannot deny that there are at least elements of stress involved when moving into a new home.
There are the financial elements that can induce stress, then there are the mountains of legal paperwork, the hours spent notifying others of your new address, and the well-wishers that come knocking at ungodly hours of the day, claiming to want to welcome you to the neighborhood, when really all they want to do is have a good look at you and a jolly good snoop around your new home!
Even if your new home looks clean when you first move in, you will doubtless want to go over it all again yourself, to know that it is hygienically clean, particularly if you have small children.
Some homes, on the other hand, will be positively grotty when you first move in, and your stress levels will not lower until every nook and cranny has been cleaned thoroughly and your new home looks, and smells, as clean as a whistle.
But do you really have the time for this, with so many other things to do? Why not hire a professional cleaning service to get your home up to scratch, and have them scrub, sweep and polish the place from top to bottom before you settle in to bed on your first day in your new home? Here are 3 of the top reasons why a cleaning service could take the stress out of moving home:
- They will save you time
Cleaning means less time for you to spend seeing to the more important things involved with moving home. With a cleaner moving swiftly and efficiently from room to room, making sure your new home is spotless, you can focus on those other things that need doing without the worry of a dirty home hanging over you. Having a spotless home on day one, will also mean less work for you in the days to come, since a clean home is easier to keep on top of.
- They will give you peace of mind
Knowing that your first night in your new home will be spent eating out of a hygienically clean kitchen, taking a bath in a tub that doesn’t have somebody else’s soap scum and hairs in it (eew!) and settling your precious kids down in bedrooms that are dust and dirt free, will definitely lower your stress levels on the day of the move.
- They will clean your home to a high standard
Even if you wanted to clean your new home yourself when you first move in, chances are that your mind will be so distracted with thoughts of settling in to a new neighborhood, worrying about how the kids will get on in their new school and whether the dog barking in the yard will annoy the neighbors, that you don’t do a particularly thorough job of it. Not only that, but you’ll doubtless be tired and more than a little bit grouchy, so why not have a professional cleaner to give your new home a hygienic make over from top to bottom? They will miss nothing, and have been trained to work efficiently and responsibly.
