【No. 0453】Housecleaning for My Move

Mar 15, 2016 14:16
Today, I cleaned my house for my move of next week.

After the housecleaning, I went to a garbage pit with my used clothes and futons.

As a result, the total weight of the clothes and futons is 50 kg, and the collection fee was 1,000 yen.

Thanks to the waste collection, my room became totally straight.

Next, I have to discard my old refrigerator and washing machine.

This housecleaning is far from over.
引っ越しのための大掃除

今日は朝から、来週の引っ越しのため、部屋の大掃除をしました。

掃除の後、着なくなった服や、使わなくなった布団などをまとめて、ゴミ捨て場に持って行きました。

その結果、服や布団などが合計50kgあり、回収料金は1000円でした。

おかげで、部屋の中は大分片付きました。

次は、古くなった冷蔵庫や洗濯機を捨てなければいけません。

まだまだ大掃除は続きます。

  • Housecleaning for My Move
  • Housecleaning for My Move
  • Today, I cleaned my house for my move of next week.
  • Today, I cleaned my house for moving next week.

    More natural would be "Today, I cleaned my house, because I am moving next week".

  • After the housecleaning, I went to a garbage pit with my used clothes and futons.
  • After the housecleaning, I went to a garbage pit with my used clothes and futons.

    "Garbage collection site" would be more appropriate. Garbage pit evokes a different mental image.

    From your Japanese this would also work "After cleaning the house, I collected my unused clothes, and went to discard them at the garbage collection site."

  • As a result, the total weight of the clothes and futons is 50 kg, and the collection fee was 1,000 yen.
  • As a result, the total weight of the clothes and futons was 50 kg, and the collection fee was 1,000 yen.

    "Consequently" would be more natural than "As a result".

  • Thanks to the waste collection, my room became totally straight.
  • Thanks to the waste collection, my room became totally organized.

    Or "Thanks to the waste collection, my room was totally straightened out."

  • Next, I have to discard my old refrigerator and washing machine.
  • Next (time), I have to throw away my old refrigerator and washing machine.

    () = optional

  • This housecleaning is far from over.
  • The housecleaning is far from over.

    You only have one house you are cleaning so "The" would be more suitable.
