While cleaning houses might seem like a daunting task, with the right techniques and solutions, you can make your home spotless in no time. Proper systemization of your house cleaning tasks can significantly reduce the time spent on doing them.
## Start With a Cleaning Plan
Before starting your cleaning, planning is key. Just like with any task, having a plan simplifies the process.
### Create a checklist
A checklist helps you to remember each area that needs cleaning. For instance, sections like behind the furniture or under the rugs are often overlooked. Include these areas in your cleaning checklist.
## Gather Your Cleaning Tools
Having all your necessary cleaning tools within range cuts down the time spent looking for them during cleaning.
### Clean one room at a time
Cleaning one room at a time ensures you don’t miss any spots.
## Cleaning the Kitchen
If your kitchen is anything like the standard household’s, it’s the one place that accumulates dirt faster than any other space. With food spills, grease stains, and unwashed dishes, it demands more attention when cleaning.
### Clean the refrigerator and freezer
Empty the contents first. Discard any expired food items and clean the shelves with a warm, soapy cloth.
### Clean appliances
For small appliances like the coffee maker or toaster, empty, dismantle, and clean all removable parts. For larger appliances like the oven, you can use a commercial oven cleaner.
### Wipe surfaces
Use a disinfectant cloth or cleaning solution to wipe all surfaces, paying special attention to areas such as stove tops and counters.
## Cleaning the Bathroom
### Clean toilet
Start by applying a toilet cleaner in the bowl and leaving it to soak. Meanwhile, disinfect the external parts of the toilet before scrubbing the bowl and flushing.
### Clean tub and shower
Use soft scrub cleaners for tub and shower surrounds, be careful with abrasive cleaning materials as they can scratch surfaces. Rinse completely when done.
### Clean the mirror
You can use a glass cleaner and a soft cloth for that.
## Cleaning the Living Room
### Dust systematically
Start from the top and move down. Dust ceiling fans, bookshelves, windowsills, tables, and other furniture pieces in one sweep.
### Wipe surfaces
Use a cleaning solution adapted for the furniture’s finish.
### Vacuum Clean
Vacuum the floor and upholstered furniture. If you have pets, consider a vacuum cleaner designed for pet hair.
## Cleaning the Bedrooms
Cleaning bedrooms don’t demand as much attention as kitchens or living rooms, but ensuring that they remain habitable is just as important.
### Stripping the beddings
Strip all bedding for laundering and dust off mattresses.
### Clean closets
Remove everything, dust shelves and hanging rods, and return items neatly.
### Clean windows
Use a glass cleaner or a mixture of vinegar and water to wipe windows clean.
### Vacuum Clean
Pay special attention to under the bed and around nightstands.
## Cleaning Tips
### Always clean from top to bottom
This principle ensures dust and other particles that fall while you’re cleaning high locations don’t settle on areas you’ve already cleaned.
### Use microfiber cloths
They absorb dust and other particles much better than other materials.
### Declutter as you clean
You’ll kill two birds with one stone: cleaning your house and keeping it tidy.
Remember, a clean house is not only satisfying to see but also beneficial to your health and well-being. So roll up your sleeves and get scrubbing!
