5 Things To Do Before Unpacking At New Apartment

Posted by Heather Homes on February 24th, 2021

When planning to move into your new home, there are certain preparations to be done beforehand to ensure that the new place is clean and safe for your family to live in.

Here are top 5 things to do before unpacking at your new apartment.

 1. Cleaning overhead areas

Overhead areas are the major dust receptacles and are also hard to reach. But it is vital to clean these parts to prevent dust from settling down inside the apartment. Overhead cupboards, ceiling fans, blinds, etc. should be cleaned before arranging the furniture.

 2. Purge the air ducts

Dust and debris can clog the air ducts and result in mold growth and vermin infestation. Purging the air ducts will help improve the air quality inside the unit while also preventing dust allergies. Duct cleaning involves cleaning the heat exchangers, heating and cooling coils, condensate drain pans, coils, grills, fan motors, etc.

 3. Pest control

Pest control is another important thing that should be undertaken after moving in. Exterminating pests like bed bugs, termite, bees, wasps and cockroaches are vital for your family’s health while also ensuring the longevity of furniture. And during moving in, pest control is easy to deal with as you can do it effectively on the empty space rather than shifting every piece of furniture for cleaning.
