[substeps] When you remove your pillows for sleeping, take the pillow cases off and throw them in the laundry basket. Fold up blankets and move items from the bed to a different part of the room so they're out of the way when you clean. [substeps] Choose a flat surface so you can work quickly. A dropcloth or piece of newspaper will work fine. Throw away anything that is not removed before replacing it. [substeps] If all your toys or decorative objects are still wrapped in some sort of wrapping paper, tear them up and toss them out. [substeps] Peel or chip pillows away until you reach the corners of the mattress. Clean with a feather duster, a toilet scraper, a toothbrush, and gloves for particularly dirtied mattresses.
