Have we ever spent as much time in our homes as we have in 2020? When you moved to the Asheville area, you were likely attracted to it by the surrounding beauty. From wide, expansive mountain views to pristine rivers and creeks, there is a lot to see outside of the four walls of your home. You probably did not expect to be relegated to your house for months, or the subsequent uncertainty about when everyone will return to the office or school full-time.
With so much time spent inside your house, you may be one of the many who have become aware of just how dirty your house is. You have likely been spending time trying to keep up with excess dishes and laundry while sweeping and vacuuming more than ever. However, there is a level of deep cleaning that is often easily neglected. Here we want to provide a deep-cleaning checklist:

First, you will need to prepare by gathering the right supplies. You will need:
- Disposable rags and scrub pads
