March Home Maintenance Checklist: 10 things to include in your housecleaning and preventative maintenance program this month to keep your house well-maintained.

While some chores need to be done weekly, others monthly, and still others, seasonally or just once a year, I've found it's easier to schedule all these tasks monthly so nothing gets missed or overlooked. Here's the March checklist that has worked best for me.

1. a clean, well-lighted place...

Begins with clean light fixtures. Clean ceiling fixtures, lamps, sconces, anything that has a bulb.

2. and while you're up there...

Clean the fan blades.

3. Floor Show:

Clean hardwood, tile, linoleum and other floor surfaces and seal. (Hire a professional for this.)

4. And While You're At It:

Call the pros in a carpet cleaning service to do the carpets, too.

5. Think Small.

6. home Office Help.

Get a jump on the taxman. Use this month to clean out your office drawers and files and surprise your accountant with all your receipts for a change.

Consider organizing your paperwork more efficiently so this task will be easier next year.

7. Does Not Compute?

Maybe it needs cleaning. Clean your computer, keyboard and mouse. And while you’re at it, tackle your all-in-one printer, too.

8. Paper Chase.

Clean out all extra books, magazines, papers, etc. Recycle, resell or donate.

9. Goodbye Till Next Year:

Put away winter clothes, ski clothes, sweaters, etc. and into storage. This is also a great opportunity to reorganize your closet.

10. Presto Chango:

And the “coat closet” becomes the “sweater closet.” Clean out the entry closet to make room for the new season’s outerwear.
