spring-cleaning
Spring-cleaning is the thorough cleaning of a house or a place that is typically carried out in spring. It involves removing items that are no longer needed, dusting, mopping, washing, and essentially doing a deep clean of all areas. The term originated from the days when homes were heated by fireplaces, and spring was the time when all the soot and grime that had accumulated over winter could be cleaned out.
