How to Clean Under the Bed Slats: Step-by-Step

 

Clear the Space

 

• Slide out any items or clutter around and beneath the bed so you have full access to the slats.
• If possible, lift the bed slightly or shift it to better reach underneath.

 

Remove the Dust and Debris

 

• Grab a vacuum with a hose attachment and run it along the length of each slat, getting under and between them.
• Focus on any dust build-up, pet hair, or debris that might have settled in these hard-to-reach spots.

 

Wipe Down the Slats

 

• Dampen a microfiber cloth with a bit of water and gentle soap. Run the cloth over each slat to pick up any remaining dust or smudges.
• If needed, use an old toothbrush to get into any crevices or textured areas on the slats.

 

Final Check

 

• Do a quick once-over to ensure no dirt or residue is left behind.
• Once satisfied, return any items back under the bed and adjust the bed back into position, feeling accomplished with your clean space.
