Tuesday is our groceries day.
While Mike is shopping ,some reason I decided to clean the fridge.
It has been awhile.
The fridge was partially empty .
i am ashamed to say that it was not very clean.
This is one thing that do not think about.
Spend about an hour or so and worn out.Did not help my back any.
This will be the last time.

I am going to clean once a week.
the fridge now looks news.I done a nice job.But it was work.
every day I will swipe and protect daily.
Once a month deep clean seasonally.
glad that it was partially empty.Easy to work

Once a month is about right. One does clean spots in between.

I do mine about once a month too, but clean up anything that may spill. I have removed everything and I did not put all of it back.

I heard that bacteria from the fridge are very dangerous for life.

@amadeo I think that it depends on the layout of the fridge. Some are easy to clean just a section of them at a time and if you do that every night then you are always ahead of the game. My last fridge was like that. But this one has a different layout, and its not as nice for cleaning.

I think cleaning the fridge once a month is okay by me. Sometimes people have no time to even clean the fridge. it is even more helpful when it is completely empty.

I understand that completely. I have been trying to put every thing in little plastic trays on the shelf to help keep it cleaner and more organized. I think you have a good plan.
