Household Hints and Tips

Fall Cleanup

It is that time of year when you need to clean up the yard and get ready for winter.

Get Ready to De-Ice - Locate the snow shovel and any deicing supplies and move them to the front so that you can easily get to them when the snow starts flying!

Sprinkler Blowouts - If you have an automatic sprinkler system, don't forget to call and have them blown out.

Organize, Organize, Organize - Take a few minutes to clear out the shed and get rid of any outdated products. (Contact your local Waste Management office to find out how to dispose of chemicals)

Automotive - Get a full detail and drop a coat of wax on before the cold weather hits. Refill your window washing fluid with an antifreeze type. Take a look in your first aid kit and see if you need to replenish anything. Grab your ice scraper, and flashlight and a small bag of kitty litter to leave in your trunk in case you get stuck out in the weather. (I also grab a couple of Candy Bars and leave in the bag)

Clean and Dry - Don't forget to clean any outdoor furniture and cover or move into storage for the winter.
