Whether you have horizontal or vertical ones, you should make sure they are always up to their cleanest condition. Vertical blinds are found in most homes because they offer more elegance and design versatility than horizontal ones. They are functional, stylish and convenient way to cover large windows and glass doors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vertical blinds are mostly made from fabric and vinyl. In this post, we talk about how to safely dust and clean both materials. Keep in mind that cleaning vertical blinds that are fabric requires more attention. So without further ado, learn how to clean vertical blinds the easy way.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-row\"><div class=\"su-column su-column-size-2-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\">\n<div class=\"su-note\"  style=\"border-color:#d6d9dd;border-radius:3px;-moz-border-radius:3px;-webkit-border-radius:3px;\"><div class=\"su-note-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"background-color:#f0f3f7;border-color:#ffffff;color:#333333;border-radius:3px;-moz-border-radius:3px;-webkit-border-radius:3px;\">\n<h3>In this article:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n<ul>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#1c4598\"><\/i> <a href=\"#how_to_clean_vertical_blinds_without_removing_them\">How to clean vertical blinds without removing them<\/a><\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#1c4598\"><\/i> <a href=\"#clean_fabric_vertical_blinds\">Cleaning fabric vertical blinds<\/a><\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#1c4598\"><\/i> <a href=\"#clean_vinyl_vertical_blinds\">How to clean vinyl vertical blinds<\/a><\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#1c4598\"><\/i> <a href=\"#cleaning_vertical_blinds_with_vinegar_-_does_it_actually_work?\">Cleaning vertical blinds with vinegar &#8211; does it actually work?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#1c4598\"><\/i> <a href=\"#how_to_clean_vertical_blinds_mould\">How to clean vertical blinds mould<\/a><\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#1c4598\"><\/i> <a href=\"#spot_clean_vertical_blinds\">Spot-cleaning your blinds<\/a><\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#1c4598\"><\/i> <a href=\"#can_you_clean_vertical_blinds_in_a_washing_machine?\">Can you clean vertical blinds in a washing machine?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#1c4598\"><\/i> <a href=\"#how_often_to_clean_vertical_blinds\">How often should you clean your blinds?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#1c4598\"><\/i> <a href=\"#takeaways\">Takeaways<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> <div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how_to_clean_vertical_blinds_without_removing_them\">How to clean vertical blinds without removing them<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If we\u2019re being honest, this is the one you\u2019ll use most of the time. Taking blinds down is a faff. Hooks, clips, that one slat that refuses to cooperate\u2026 not worth it for a regular clean. The good news? You can get them looking much better without touching the fittings. Just a bit of patience, decent technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Close the blinds fully<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Start by closing the blinds so they\u2019re all facing the same way. You want one flat surface, not a row of flapping strips doing their own thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It makes the whole job quicker. You\u2019ll cover more in one go. Less chance of missing random patches that only show up later when the sun hits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Remove loose dust first<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you even think about water, deal with the dust. Seriously. This part matters more than people think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use a microfibre cloth, a duster, or the vacuum with a brush attachment. Work from top to bottom. Always. Gravity\u2019s already doing half the job for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hold each slat lightly as you go, especially if they\u2019re fabric. Stops them bending, twisting, looking like they\u2019ve had a bad day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Skip this step and go straight in with a damp cloth\u2026 you\u2019ll just smear everything around. Turns into a grey, streaky mess. Worse than when you started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Wipe down with a damp cloth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you can use a cloth. Slightly damp. Not dripping. Not \u201cjust rinsed and couldn\u2019t be bothered to wring it out\u201d damp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Warm water, a drop of washing-up liquid. That\u2019s enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can wipe each slat one by one, or wrap the cloth around and clean both sides at once. The second option\u2019s quicker, feels oddly satisfying too. Just don\u2019t rush it. This isn\u2019t a race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Let them dry properly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re done, leave the blinds open. Let air move around them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This bit gets ignored all the time, then people wonder why they\u2019ve got streaks or that slightly musty smell. Moisture needs somewhere to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the room feels a bit damp, open a window. Even a small gap helps. Or stick the fan on for a bit. Makes more difference than you\u2019d expect.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-note\"  style=\"border-color:#d6d9dd;border-radius:6px;-moz-border-radius:6px;-webkit-border-radius:6px;\"><div class=\"su-note-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"background-color:#f0f3f7;border-color:#ffffff;color:#172a41;border-radius:6px;-moz-border-radius:6px;-webkit-border-radius:6px;\"><strong>Check also:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/fantasticcleaners.com.au\/blog\/the-fantastic-guide-to-cleaning-blinds-shades\/\">How to Clean Blinds Based on the Material<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"clean_fabric_vertical_blinds\">Cleaning fabric vertical blinds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you ever wondered what\u2019s the best way of <a href=\"https:\/\/fantasticcleaners.com.au\/sydney\/blind-cleaning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cleaning your blinds<\/a>?

Yes. It works. For everyday cleaning, it\u2019s usually all you need. It cuts through light grease, lifts dull patches, deals with those slightly grimy edges that show up out of nowhere. No harsh chemicals, no fuss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your blinds just look a bit tired \u2014 not filthy, just\u2026 off \u2014 vinegar sorts that quickly. Mix it with water, give things a wipe, and you\u2019ll see the difference almost straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t need to overthink it. Half vinegar, half water. That\u2019s it. Stronger doesn\u2019t mean better here. Just makes the smell sharper and the whole thing a bit unpleasant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of the smell \u2014 yeah, you\u2019ll notice it at first. But give it a bit of time, open a window, and it fades. Usually quicker than you\u2019d expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing though \u2014 always test a small patch first. Especially with fabric blinds. Most will be fine, but every now and then you get one that reacts badly. Better safe than staring at a faded strip you can\u2019t unsee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where vinegar falls short is with heavier jobs. Deep stains, built-up grime, anything that\u2019s been ignored for months\u2026 it won\u2019t magically fix that. At that point, you\u2019re better off with proper cleaning or a full wash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, for a quick freshen-up without dragging out loads of products, it\u2019s hard to beat. Simple, cheap, does what you need.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-note\"  style=\"border-color:#d6d9dd;border-radius:6px;-moz-border-radius:6px;-webkit-border-radius:6px;\"><div class=\"su-note-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"background-color:#f0f3f7;border-color:#ffffff;color:#172a41;border-radius:6px;-moz-border-radius:6px;-webkit-border-radius:6px;\"><strong>Check also:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/fantasticcleaners.com.au\/blog\/how-to-clean-venetian-blinds\/\">How to Clean Venetian Blinds<br \/>\n<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how_to_clean_vertical_blinds_mould\">How to clean vertical blinds mould<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mould on vertical blinds catches people off guard. One day everything looks fine, next thing you notice a few dark specks creeping along the edges. It\u2019s usually worse near windows or in rooms that feel a bit damp \u2014 bathrooms, kitchens, anywhere air doesn\u2019t really move. Ignore it, and it spreads quietly. Not dramatic, just stubborn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The trick is not to panic and go at it like you\u2019re scrubbing a burnt pan. That\u2019s where people make it worse. Mould doesn\u2019t need force. It needs a bit of patience.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#db007d\"><\/i> Start with a simple vinegar mix. Half white vinegar, half water. Nothing fancy. Dampen a cloth, then gently dab the affected spots. Not soak \u2014 just enough to treat the area. If the fabric gets too wet, you\u2019re basically feeding the problem.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#db007d\"><\/i> You\u2019ll probably feel tempted to scrub. Everyone does. Don\u2019t. It just spreads things around or roughs up the surface, especially on fabric blinds. Light pressure is enough. Slow, steady, repeat if needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#db007d\"><\/i> Once you\u2019re done, let them dry properly. This part gets skipped all the time, which is why the mould comes back. Open the blinds up, get some air moving. Window open if you can. Even a bit of airflow makes a difference.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s also worth stepping back for a second. Mould doesn\u2019t just appear for no reason. It\u2019s usually down to moisture hanging around too long. Condensation on windows, poor ventilation, that sort of thing. Fix that, even slightly, and you\u2019ll stop having to deal with the same annoying spots every few weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-note\"  style=\"border-color:#d6d9dd;border-radius:6px;-moz-border-radius:6px;-webkit-border-radius:6px;\"><div class=\"su-note-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"background-color:#f0f3f7;border-color:#ffffff;color:#172a41;border-radius:6px;-moz-border-radius:6px;-webkit-border-radius:6px;\"><strong>Check also:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/fantasticcleaners.com.au\/blog\/how-to-clean-roman-blinds-at-home\/\">How to Clean Roman Blinds at Home<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"spot_clean_vertical_blinds\">Spot-cleaning your blinds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is usually rare but it happens. It\u2019s easier to spot-clean vinyl blinds than fabric ones, but don\u2019t worry as both types can be washed. Again you\u2019ll need warm water, dish soap and a microfibre cloth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To remove spots from vinyl vines, first, wipe the entire area. Then using the microfibre cloth and soap, rubdown the spot. Since vinyl isn\u2019t porous, the spot should come off easily and no residue from it or the water will remain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But to spot-clean fabric vines, you shouldn\u2019t rub the spot, only dab it. Use soap, water and a microfibre cloth or a sponge to dab the spot. When you think it\u2019s done, wash the soap with another clean wet cloth. Again, only blot the spot.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-note\"  style=\"border-color:#c10063;border-radius:6px;-moz-border-radius:6px;-webkit-border-radius:6px;\"><div class=\"su-note-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"background-color:#db007d;border-color:#ffccff;color:#ffffff;border-radius:6px;-moz-border-radius:6px;-webkit-border-radius:6px;\">Leave the fabric vines to air dry or use a blow dryer on low heat to speed up the process.<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"can_you_clean_vertical_blinds_in_a_washing_machine?\">Can you clean vertical blinds in a washing machine?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It really comes down to what your blinds are made of. Some fabric ones will handle a washing machine just fine. Others\u2026 not so much. You take them out and suddenly they\u2019re creased, warped, or just not sitting right anymore. Vinyl blinds are a definite no. Don\u2019t even risk it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve got fabric blinds and they feel fairly sturdy, you can give it a go. Just don\u2019t treat them like a normal load of washing. Keep it gentle. Cold water, low setting. Nothing aggressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take off any weights or chains. Easy to forget, but they can knock around inside the drum and cause damage. Not just to the blinds, but to the machine too. Not a fun surprise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Skip the spin cycle if you can. It sounds harmless, but it twists the slats in ways that are hard to fix. You end up trying to straighten them for ages, and they never quite look right again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And whatever you do, don\u2019t put them in the tumble dryer. Heat will ruin the shape. Seen it happen \u2014 they come out looking like they\u2019ve had a bad day. Let them air dry instead. Hang them up or lay them flat somewhere with decent airflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even when it works, this isn\u2019t something you\u2019d do often.
