Ceiling-to-floor cleaning

Ceiling-to-floor cleaning

If you are able to afford a cleaning service, by all means do so. It saves a lot of time and aggravation.
If you are tackling cleaning by yourself, use the "top down" method. Start by cleaning the highest places (ie. the tops of bookshelves) and work your way down to the floors. By the time you get to the floors, you will also be cleaning up dust that fell from the upper places.

Also, only clean in 15 minute increments. Set a timer and make sure to take a break when the timer goes off. This decreases your chances of burnout.
