May’s Cleaning Checklist: Nu-Yale Cleans Real Life’s Laundry

From patio season to travel prep, here’s why these often-overlooked items deserve a clean start.

Let’s face it, May moves fast. Between prepping your patio, celebrating graduates, and gearing up for summer travel, laundry tends to pile up — and not just the usual clothes.

That’s where Nu-Yale comes in. We clean the real-life laundry — the oversized, overused, and overlooked items that make your home feel fresh and your life run smoother.

Here’s what to clean this month (and why it’s totally worth it):

Outdoor Living Is Back

What to Clean:

  • Patio cushions

  • Umbrella fabric

  • Grill covers

  • Outdoor flags and doormats

Why It Matters:
Outdoor fabrics soak up months of pollen, dirt, and mildew. A professional clean helps them look better, last longer, and smell fresh. Hosting a backyard hangout? This is the fastest way to make your space feel summer-ready.

Graduation Season Essentials

What to Clean:

  • Caps and gowns

  • Dress shirts, suits, and dresses

  • School, band, or ROTC uniforms

Why It Matters:
Graduation moments are big. Clean, pressed garments help everyone look their best in photos and on stage. We can even preserve those milestone outfits for the future.

Summer Travel is Coming

What to Clean:

  • Suitcases and duffel bags

  • Car mats and trunk liners

  • Beach towels and picnic blankets

  • Travel pillows or throws

Why It Matters:
Why start your trip with musty gear? Freshen up your travel essentials so everything from your car to your beach blanket feels like new.

The Overlooked (But Totally Cleanable) Stuff

What to Clean:

  • Golf bags

  • Stuffed animals

  • Pillows

  • Tablecloths and cloth napkins

  • Decorative flags and small rugs

Why It Matters:
These items quietly collect dust, sweat, and allergens — but rarely get the attention they deserve. A seasonal refresh extends their life and gives your home a subtle but satisfying lift.

The Big Picture

When you stay ahead of the “invisible” laundry, everything feels a little lighter — your home, your calendar, and your peace of mind.

Whether you stop by, schedule a pickup with Click n’ Wash, or drop items off at a Nu-Yale Anytime kiosk, we make it easy to check these off your list.

Here’s to heading into summer fresh.
