Fall Cleaning: A Guide Before the Chill Sets In

As the warm Nevada summer fades and crisp autumn air rolls into Reno and nearby areas, it’s the perfect time to refresh your home before the colder months arrive. Fall cleaning is more than just tidying up — it’s about getting your home ready for shorter days, cooler nights, and the upcoming holiday gatherings. With dry air, dust buildup, and increased time indoors, a thorough fall clean helps create a comfortable and healthy space for your family.

To help you prepare, we’ve put together a practical fall cleaning guide tailored for Reno homeowners.

1. Entryway & Living Room Reset

Fall in Northern Nevada brings more dust and debris as winds pick up and leaves begin to fall.

  • Shake out and clean rugs and doormats.

  • Wipe down light switches, handles, and baseboards.

  • Vacuum under furniture and dust all surfaces, especially vents and blinds.

  • Add a cozy touch — swap out summer decor for warm-toned blankets and cushions.

2. Kitchen Deep Clean Before the Holidays

With Thanksgiving and other celebrations approaching, your kitchen will soon be the busiest room in the house.

  • Clean the oven, stovetop, and microwave thoroughly.

  • Wipe cabinets, shelves, and backsplash tiles.

  • Defrost and organize the freezer.

  • Sanitize countertops and sweep and mop the floors.

3. Bedrooms & Bathrooms Refresh

Cooler weather means more time spent indoors — make sure your spaces are clean and comfortable.

  • Wash comforters, sheets, and curtains to remove summer dust and allergens.

  • Flip and rotate mattresses.

  • Deep clean showers, sinks, and mirrors.

  • Restock toiletries and towels for guests before the holiday season.

4. Don’t Forget the Air Quality

As you close your windows for the season, air circulation becomes more limited.

  • Replace or clean HVAC filters.

  • Dust vents and ceiling fans.

  • Consider scheduling a professional cleaning for carpets and upholstery to remove built-up allergens.

5. Outdoor & Patio Preparation

Reno’s fall can bring unpredictable weather — sometimes sunny, sometimes frosty.

  • Sweep patios and walkways, and clear fallen leaves.

  • Clean gutters to prevent blockages before winter rains.

  • Store patio furniture or cover it to protect from cold and moisture.
