Mastering Refrigerator Cleaning: Pro Tips from Neat Geeks

At Neat Geeks, our cleaning professionals thrive on tackling challenges—especially when it comes to a messy refrigerator! Is your fridge in need of a refresh? Don’t worry; we’ve got the ultimate guide to help you clean it like a pro!

Step 1: Empty It Out

Start by removing everything from your refrigerator. This is the perfect time to check expiration dates and toss out anything that’s past its prime. Set aside perishables in a cooler to keep them fresh while you clean.

Step 2: Remove Shelves and Drawers

Take out all shelves and drawers. Wash them with warm, soapy water, and let them air dry while you tackle the interior.

Step 3: Clear Out Crumbs

Use a dry cloth to wipe away any loose crumbs and debris from the interior. This quick step sets the stage for a deeper clean.

Step 4: Deep Clean the Interior

Grab a magic eraser or a microfiber cloth, and apply a small amount of kitchen cleaner. Focus on the walls and corners, paying extra attention to stubborn sticky spots. Once done, reinsert your clean shelves and drawers.

Step 5: Don’t Forget the Doors!

Wipe down the insides of the fridge doors, ensuring that every inch is sparkling clean. A pristine door makes a great first impression!

Step 6: Clean the Exterior

Now, shift your focus to the outside of your refrigerator. Use a kitchen cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down surfaces. For stainless steel finishes, opt for a microfiber cloth specifically designed for stainless steel cleaners. Remember: never use a magic eraser on stainless steel—it can cause damage!
