Are you moving and want to know how to clean and pack your shower curtains and rods?
Moving Box Delivery recommends that you fully clean your plastic shower curtain before you pack it. Yes this is one more thing that needs to be done while moving, however the good news is this is something that you can do a week in advance of your move.
You would think that your shower curtain would be clean enough to pack. After all people use soap and shampoo in it each day. The reality is, shower curtains can quickly become filled with scum and dirt that is not good to pack or move into your new home.
2 Different Ways to Clean a Shower Curtain Before You Move
1. Fill up your bath tub and put bleach in the water. Soak the shower curtain for a few hours, scrub with a sponge, and and then hang to dry.
2. No chemical approach-Put apple cider vinegar in the bathtub. Let your curtain soak. Scrub with baking soda and rinse with water.
The most important thing to know about packing shower curtains in moving boxes is make sure they are completely dry before you pack them to prevent mold and mildew.
How to Pack Shower Curtains
1. Your decorative shower curtains can be folded up and placed in your moving boxes. Put all of your rods in a large freezer plastic zip lock bag to make sure you don’t loose them in the move.
2. Make sure to clean and DRY your plastic shower curtain before you pack it. A slightly damp shower curtain can quickly grow mold inside of moving boxes. If it is sunny outside, place your curtain in the sun to make sure it is totally dry.
Happy Moving!
