I always leave fresh sheets on the bed too..ahh heaven! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-clean-your-house-before-going-on-vacation#post-229136 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 16:05:00 +0000 lovehoneybee 229136@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always, especially the kitchen--dishes have to at least be in a running dishwasher, sink and counters cleaned, floor swept and mopped. All the laundry needs to be done and put away, bed made, fridge emptied, cat boxes cleaned, trash and recycling taken out--and everything else straightened up and put away. </p> <p>I LOVE coming home to a clean house after a trip, especially a long one. And also, like Highwire, because if something happens I want the place to be clean if something happens to us and people need to come in and pack it up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-clean-your-house-before-going-on-vacation#post-229130 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 16:01:17 +0000 Andrea 229130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-clean-your-house-before-going-on-vacation#post-229129 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 15:59:58 +0000 cvbee 229129@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm the same. My husband doesnt understand it. I try to remember to run the dishwasher and have no garbage in the kitchen garbage too. Boy do I have a yucky story about one hot vacay when we didnt do that.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-clean-your-house-before-going-on-vacation#post-229117 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 15:48:01 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 229117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always. It's a pet peeve to come home to a dirty house! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-clean-your-house-before-going-on-vacation#post-229099 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 15:34:14 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 229099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: I was just talking to my husband about this the other night! I like for my house to be relatively tidy at all times. If something ever happens to us I don't want people going through a nasty house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-clean-your-house-before-going-on-vacation#post-229085 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 15:24:19 +0000 heffalump 229085@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. But we have a dog who has major separation anxiety and likes to eat things if we leave them out. We always leave him with family, but like to clean our house in case they need to drop him off while we aren't there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-clean-your-house-before-going-on-vacation#post-229076 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 15:16:56 +0000 Alivoo01 229076@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Kind of. I tidy up so that the place isn't a mess and I clear out our fridge and take out the trash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-clean-your-house-before-going-on-vacation#post-229045 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 14:57:14 +0000 mrsjyw 229045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always! laundry, empty out fridge, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-clean-your-house-before-going-on-vacation#post-229039 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 14:54:47 +0000 DillonLion 229039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always. I like coming home to a clean house but I do it for really morbid reasons. In case we die on the trip and someone has to come into our home after we are gone to pack everything up. I don't want the place to be a disaster. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-clean-your-house-before-going-on-vacation#post-229038 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 14:54:16 +0000 MamaMoose 229038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup. I Loooooove coming home to a clean house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-clean-your-house-before-going-on-vacation#post-229037 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 14:53:26 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 229037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're leaving tonight to go to the beach for a few days. I've spent the last few hours cleaning like crazy! I've done laundry, cleaned the kitchen, straightened up, made my bed, and now I'm going to fold some more clothes and finish packing. I hate coming home to a dirty house! Do you clean before going out of town? </p>
