- Check your owner's manual, or if you lost it, check the manufacturer's website for any model-specific care instructions. These can also tell you how to dismantle certain parts of the stroller to get a deeper clean.
- Get rid of loose dirt and crumbs – using an attachment on your vacuum is a good way to do this.
- Use water and a gentle soap to spot clean the fabric of the stroller's basket. If your stroller has a removable cover or fabric, rinse or soak this in cool water, scrubbing at any stains.
- Once all the fabric is dry, follow up with a Lysol® Disinfectant Spray to refresh and sanitize the cloth.
- Wipe down hard parts of the stroller with a Lysol® Disinfecting Wipe, or, if there are a lot of them, use our Multi-Purpose Cleaner to clean every part. This includes handles. Don't forget the wheels of the stroller, they can pick up a lot of dirt. If your stroller has tires, consider giving them some pumps of air. If they aren't maneuvering smoothly give them a spritz of some lubricant.
- Store your stroller in a cool, dry place so that it won't get rusty, musty or mildewed.
