Getting To Grips With A Grotty Refrigerator

• No matter how house proud you are, there will be
  times when your refrigerator has gotten grotty
  due to spilled foods not being cleaned up right
  away, or leftovers oozing from containers stuffed
  into the last remaining space at the back of the
  fridge, and that had been forgotten about. Its
  easy to let a fridge become dirty, but you know
  what, its even easier to clean it, its just a
  little time consuming. Problem is, time is a
  commodity nowadays and we dont always have
  enough of it to keep our homes spotless and
  smelling fresh all year round.
• That said, we either hire a professional cleaning
  team to make our refrigerator stop smelling like
  the garbage disposal, or we find the time to do
  it ourselves.

• Theres absolutely nothing wrong with paying
  someone else to get it clean, and you may have to
  if your schedule is chocka block, but if you are
  willing enough (and brave enough!) to get the job
  done yourself, here are 6 easy steps to get your
  refrigerator spick and span
• Step 1
• Be sure to unplug the fridge before you do
  anything else while you wont be coming into
  direct contact with any electrical wires, you
  should still disconnect the power to be safe and
  sound. Then, fill your sink or a large bowl with
  warm, soapy water.

• Step 2
• Open the fridge and take out everything. Food
  items that have gone past their consumption date
  should be thrown away, as with any other items
  that have gone mouldy or smell bad. Simply do the
  same with the freezer section, too.
• Step 3
• Remove all the shelves, drawers and compartments
  and wash them in the soapy water that you
  prepared earlier. Spread out some dish towels
  over your countertops to lay out the pieces that
  youve washed, and they should air dry while you
  continue with the rest of the fridge.

• Step 4
• Unless you want to be walking backwards and
  forwards from the refrigerator to the sink, fill
  a bucket with 2 tablespoons of baking soda and
  around a gallon of warm water. Then get your
  cloth and soak it in the water before wiping the
  inside of the fridge. If the bottom of the fridge
  is especially grotty, you can sprinkle some of
  the water and baking soda over it to help soften
  and shift stubborn stains. Use a clean, dry towel
  to wipe it down and do the same with the freezer.
• Step 5
• Use another cloth to clean the exterior of the
  fridge, which hopefully wont be as grotty as the
  inside might be. Wipe it dry with a clean, dry
  towel.

• Step 6
• If the shelves and drawers are still wet once
  youve finished cleaning the inside and outside
  of the fridge dry them off and place them back.
  To prevent it from getting dirty again right
  away, try to wipe clean any pots, jars and
  containers that look sticky or stained, and pop
  them back in. Then, plug the power cord back in,
  and wait for your lovely clean and fresh smelling
  refrigerator to get chilly again!
• If this all sounds like too much hard work for
  you, or it will take up too much of your time,
  then call up a professional cleaning service and
  let them tackle your grotty refrigerator for you.
