How to clean a Lazy Susan Cabinet.

 Cleaning Kitchen Cabinets

Assemble needed supplies

  • Gloves
  • Eye protection
  • A covering for your head
  • Spray cleaning solution of your choice or pan/sink of wet cleaning solution—Dawn and hot water
  • Rags, wipes, paper towels—your choice
  • Soft scrubber
  • Baking soda or slightly abrasive cleaner
  • Knee pads or step stool depending on the location of the cabinet
  • Oil for the mechanism—I use sewing machine oil
  • Shelf liner
  • Scissors
  • Cabinet cleaner for the outside of your type of cabinet

Remove everything from the cabinet that you want to clean and the adjacent cabinets on each side unless this is a standalone cabinet.

Check for items that may be in the void the lazy Susan doesn’t address and remove them.

Remove any removable liner placed on the shelves.

Cleaning the shelves

  • Spray or wet the shelves with the cleaning solution.
  • Wipe the shelves.
  • Repeat until the shelves are clean.

Hard to remove the residue?

  • Wet the area
  • Add a sprinkle of baking soda over the area.
  • Use a damp soft scrubber to clean the area.
  • Repeat the baking soda as necessary.
  • Use a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue.
  • Use a dry cloth to dry the shelves.

Maintenance

  • Use the oil to grease the moving parts.
  • Add shelf liner—use scissors to cut the liner to fit.
  • Clean the outside of the cabinet per the cleaner's directions.

Finishing up

  • Place the desired contents back into the cabinet.
  • If food contents have expiration dates, remember to purge the items.
  • Put like items together.
  • Place the items that will go out of date in front of items that will last longer.

Bonus

  • Clean the adjacent cabinets.
