The Ultimate Guide from the LA Mattress Store
Hello there! As an expert at the LA Mattress Store, I understand that maintaining a clean and tidy home is not always easy, especially when it comes to your bed. While you probably clean your sheets regularly, you might overlook the bed frame. However, this often-forgotten part of your bed is important to clean regularly to ensure a healthy sleep environment. So, without further ado, let's dive into the step-by-step guide on how to clean a bed frame.
Materials You'll Need:
- Vacuum cleaner with brush attachment
- Microfiber cloth
- Mild dish soap
- Water
- Baking soda (for stubborn stains)
1. Remove Bedding
Start by removing all bedding from your mattress. This includes sheets, blankets, and pillows. This will allow you to access the bed frame easily.
2. Vacuum
Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to remove dust and dirt from the bed frame. Make sure to get into all the nooks and crannies where dust can accumulate.
3. Prepare a Cleaning Solution
Prepare a mild cleaning solution by mixing a few drops of dish soap in warm water.
4. Wipe Down
Dip a microfiber cloth into the cleaning solution, wring out the excess, and gently wipe down the bed frame. For upholstered or fabric bed frames, dab the solution onto the frame rather than wiping to avoid damaging the fabric.
5. Rinse and Dry
Rinse your cloth with clean water, wring out the excess, and wipe down the bed frame again to remove any soap residue. Once you've rinsed the frame, dry it thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth.
6. Tackle Stains
If your bed frame has stubborn stains, make a paste with baking soda and a little water. Apply this paste to the stain, leave it for a few minutes, then wipe off with a clean, damp cloth.
7. Regular Maintenance
To keep your bed frame looking its best, clean it every few months or as needed. Regular maintenance will prolong its life and keep it looking fresh and clean.
Remember, a clean bed frame contributes to a clean, healthy sleeping environment.
