hahaha Honestly!! I have no regular cleaning days of our ref. I just clean it or arrange it when it needs to. If there are lots to left overs that we were not able to re heat or re use, then I feel that it needs to be thrown away? that's the time I will clean our ref. what about you? do you have regular cleaning like every week or rwice a week? just curious!!!

I clean my fridge when it needs doing and I have enough time available to do that task. I must say that it is not something that I enjoy doing. I usually clean my fridge every six weeks. I have a mini clear out every Wednesday morning because that is rubbish collecting day.

Oh really? we are the same. I am not cleaning the ref often.. I just clean it when I feel like it is needed.. hehehe... Others have really a schedule for ref cleaning but me? nope!! it doesn't matter to me because it is not dirty.

I find it best to have a set shcedule to clean the frig-I clean the frig every Tuesday. This is beneficial and very important if you have children and keep leftovers. You don't want the little tikes to poison themselves!

Oh!! that's good idea too. I never thought of that.

Hi Bebs,

I am used to clean the refrigerator once in a week and also
I am using the special one to have the some extra feature in the
system, so I must clean the refrigerator once in a week in order to
have the good function and also it is to be considered as a good habits.
Most of the times I am experiencing that when I am cleaning the fridge
it should looks fresh and also no more bad smell in the fridge. I used
to store all the foods like fruits, vegetables, meat, egg, Ice creams,
etc., so I must keep the fridge in clean and good conditions in order
to have the beautiful looks as well as good hygienic method too .

Have a nice day.

that's right I absolutely agree with that idea. Thanks for sharing.

Well, when it comes to cleaning, I generally do not clean my refrigerator. It is normally done by my Mom. I stay away of cleaning some delicate kind of things. Though I run away of it, I help my Mom.
We generally wash or clean our fridge within 2 or 3 weeks. So it always look fresh and hygienic. lol


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2490)   ranked 36 out of 35,110 in people  4 weeks ago

Oh that's a good idea to have regular days of cleaning your ref. Me. I just clean it when it is needed to be. lol

Honestly? Ha! I clean that fridge when I am having people over. I just know they will open it and see a spill here and there from the last get together which was a week or two ago. I guess you could call that a cleaning schedule. Call it vanity or what, but I like my things looking good when people stop by. I usually put the leftovers immediately in the freezer for at our house we like variety and not leftovers the next day. I've noticed food keeps very well this way and very handy to pull something out and fix fast.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2490)   ranked 36 out of 35,110 in people  4 weeks ago

hahah that's funny!! cleaning the fridge when expecting a visitor? yes, there are some visitors who open the ref. specially if they are close friends. hehehe

my wife cleans in once a month, but sometimes once in two months. we have a rule in the house that is clean as we go. so we both make sure that we wont put anything in the fridge that is not meant to be there. if it is food tat we can not finish she put it in a Ziploc and make sure to bring it out the next day to see what she can do with it. our son is just three years old and he does not know yet to stuff things in the fridge. my sister has teen children and their fridge is a disaster. bottle of unfinished cola, chocolate bars that are half eaten and stuff like that.

Oh really? I like your way of keeping the left overs. That's nice that you wife is good in making use of the left overs instead of just throwing it aways.

I will clean my refrigerator about twice a month.

Clean the refrigeratora is really a difficult task to do. In my opinion, cleaning it weekly is the best frequency for then it can keep working well, keep fresh smelling and saving power. However, it seems it is not practical for most people to keep such a frequency. Yes, people often work hard everyday and cleaning the refrigeratora often need much time.

You see, I am a so lazy man indeed. Happy myLotting!

I carry this task out once per month on the first Sunday of the month. I have a small fridge and it has one of those tiny freezer boxes at the top, very ideal for one person! Well, the ice tends to build up and I don't have one of those frost free freezers. By doing it once per month this ensures that my fridge freezer continues to operate at its best. In terms of getting rid of out of date stuff then this tends to happen more frequently. I don't like throwing food away though so I try and make the effort to consume goods before the sell by date! Andrew


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2490)   ranked 36 out of 35,110 in people  4 weeks ago

I do too. I don't like to throw stuff away. I make sure to use up the left overs before the week ends. happyhappy
