Tips for cleaning kitchen cabinets

If your kitchen cabinets are looking a little worse for wear, don't despair! With a little elbow grease and these tips, you'll have them shining in no time.

Start with a plan

Before you start cleaning, it's important to clear everything out of the cabinet. This will give you a chance to assess the condition of the cabinet and decide what cleaning products and tools you'll need. It's also a good opportunity to do a quick declutter and get rid of any items you no longer need or use.

Empty doesn't mean clean

Just because the cabinet is empty doesn't mean it's clean. Once everything is out, give the inside of the cabinet a good wipe down with a multipurpose cleaner or all-purpose cleaner. Be sure to get into all the nooks and crannies, especially if there's built-up grease or food residue.

Tackling the shelves

If your custom wood cabinets have shelves, now is the time to give them a good cleaning too! Remove each shelf one at a time and wash them with soap and water (or put them in the dishwasher, if they're dishwasher-safe). Wipe down the inside of the cabinet where the shelves sit before returning them to their rightful place.

Put it all back

Once everything is clean, it's time to reassemble your kitchen cabinets! Put away all your dishes, cookware, and food items, being careful to not overload the shelves or cram things into spaces where they don't belong.

If everything doesn't fit back into the cabinet, take this opportunity to do another round of decluttering until everything has its proper place.

Wrap up!

With these tips, your kitchen cabinets will be clean as new in no time! Not only will they look great, but having a decluttered and organized kitchen will make meal prep and cooking much simpler and more enjoyable. So what are you waiting for? Get started today!
