Tips for Cleaning Your Refrigerator

From spilled foods to long-forgotten leftovers, it can be easy to let your refrigerator get dirty and cluttered over time. However, by regularly dedicating a small amount of time to cleaning your fridge, you can eliminate unwanted smells and make more room to store food. If you’re ready to finally open the doors to a clean fridge again, follow these steps:

• Completely empty your refrigerator and throw away anything that is expired, is spoiled, or you’re just not going to use.
• Wipe down every inch of your refrigerator with a cleaning solution to remove any stains, spills, or crumbs that may be in your fridge.
• Wipe down all your remaining containers and jars and then put everything back into your fridge neatly. Organize everything carefully so you’ll know exactly where to find each item. If you have foods that can leak or spill, keep them on the bottom so they won’t drip on other foods or containers in the event they do spill.
• Wipe down the outside of your fridge, and organize anything on its surface such as notes, calendars, or menus.

The next time your refrigerator gets dirty and cluttered, remember to follow these steps.
