The inside of cupboards can also get dirty and can even become oily, especially where you have your stored oils, such as olive and canola oils. It is simple and easy to clean and degrease a cupboard--just follow the tips below.

Things You’ll Need:

Baking soda
Warm water
Cloth or sponge
Bucket

Step1

Make a mixture of warm water and a lot of baking soda. Place it in a bucket. (You do not need to fill the bucket the whole way; otherwise, you would dilute the mixture too much. You need a good amount of baking soda.)

Step2

Using a cloth or sponge and the mixture, apply to the outside and inside of the cupboards to clean.

Step3

Rinse out the bucket and fill it again with fresh, clean, warm water.

Step4

Go over the cupboards again to "rinse" them, using the new water.

Step5

Thoroughly dry the cupboards with a dry, clean cloth.
