FALL CLEANING CHECKLIST Household Tasks and Maintenance Change your HVAC filter. Stock up on candles and matches/lighters (in case of power outages due to fall and winter weather). Stock up on extra batteries and flashlights and change batteries in flashlights you already have (again, in case of power outages). Stock up on sidewalk salt to prepare for the first big snow! Test smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors, and replace batteries. Turn on your heater and make sure it’s working properly.
Pack Light. Travel Happy.
