Coming home to a clean house is a wonderful feeling, but it does not last forever. Stick to a tried-and-true house cleaning schedule that covers everything from daily to annual chores to keep your home neat and tidy.\n\n\n\n
When a small amount of untidiness is not cleaned up, it can quickly become a large mess. Daily cleaning tasks are intended to be simple, easy-to-complete chores that leave your home in a basic state of cleanliness. Taking care of minor messes right away prevents the accumulation of dirt and grime and makes deep cleaning easier for weekly, monthly, and yearly house cleaning tasks.\n\n\n\n
Completing daily cleaning tasks will also make you feel less overwhelmed by housework. There is a connection between mess and stress. It’s easier to unwind at home when everything is in its proper place. Taking a few minutes each day to complete simple tasks keeps a home clean enough to live in.\n\n\n\n
A fast way to quickly tidy your home is to pass a broom, electric broom, or\u00a0vacuum\u00a0over the floors. In exchange for a quick few minutes, this task prevents dirt build-up,\u00a0pet hair, and dander accumulation, and\u00a0limits the dirt\u00a0that finds its way under furniture and into cracks and crevices.\n\n\n\n
In the kitchen or dining room, clean, damp cloth can do wonders. After dinner, a quick wipe of counters, the stovetop, or the dining table prevents spills and food from hardening and becoming difficult to scrape off. Clean surfaces make a huge difference in a home’s visual cleanliness.\n\n\n\n
When everything has a place, everything looks neater in general. To keep your home clean and clutter-free, put your dirty gym clothes in the laundry hamper, empty your lunch bag in the kitchen, keep your grooming items on a shelf or in a drawer rather than on the sink, and find a place for the rest of your belongings.\n\n\n\n
An overflowing sink full of dishes with caked-on sauces and leftover food is one way to\u00a0attract pests\u00a0and create foul smells in the kitchen.\u00a0Unloading your dishwasher\u00a0each morning enables you to put dirty dishes in the dishwasher throughout the day to keep your counters and sink clear.\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
It may look clean, but the kitchen sink plays host to many germs and bacteria, especially when meal prep involves raw meat. Use a\u00a0disinfecting soap or spray\u00a0to wipe down your sink each night after you\u2019ve finished washing dishes.\n\n\n\n
Where daily cleaning tasks address simple messes and maintain a reasonable amount of cleanliness, weekly cleaning tasks require a bit more attention\u2013but not enough to have to tackle these tasks every day. Doing small cleaning tasks every day means that the weekly cleaning schedule should be easy to accomplish.\n\n\n\n
Weekly cleaning tasks help freshen up areas of the home that guests don\u2019t see, and provide a deeper clean than the baseline daily tasks. Items on this list tend to address areas of the home that are more intimately familiar to the people who live there and cleaning these areas well each week contributes to the\u00a0health of the household.\n\n\n\n
Cleaning the sink and nearby surfaces should be done every day; however, these areas\u2014in both the kitchen and bathrooms\u2014require a deeper clean at least once a week. Scrub all of the nooks and crannies, wipe down the faucet, and clean any items in the surrounding area. This is also a good time to clean the dish drying rack in the kitchen, which tends to collect dirt and grime.\n\n\n\n Even if it appears clean, this minor task is best completed on a regular basis. Cleaning the microwave on a weekly basis keeps the mess from accumulating and turning a minor chore into a terrifying task.\n\n\n\n A quick daily sweep can only do so much. Each week, get into the nooks and crannies of your house, moving furniture out of the way, so you can sweep and\u00a0mop every flooring surface. Moving your couch or large chairs is also a great opportunity to clean any hidden treats or toys hidden by a child or pet. Always use products designed for the type of flooring in your home.\n\n\n\n Have a dedicated day each week where you\u00a0put your bath towels through the wash. Towels can pick up a lot of dirt when hanging on a bathroom hook. Washing towels helps prevent the buildup of dirt or worse, mold\u2013which thrives in moist environments.\n\n\n\n Toothbrushes are kept in the dirtiest room in the house. Cleaning your toothbrush holder every week helps\u00a0prevent the buildup of germs and bacteria. A neglected toothbrush holder can spread germs to your toothbrush, which can cause you to get sick.\n\n\n\n This is another daily task that benefits from a deeper clean once a week.\u00a0Carpets tend to pick up smells\u00a0and hide hair and dirt if they aren\u2019t clean; doing a thorough job with a vacuum (and perhaps some deodorizer) can improve the smell of your home. Remove any obstacles and remove as much dirt as you can.\n\n\n\n Regular dusting\u00a0and brushing your furniture keeps them cleaner and maintains their condition for longer. Proper dusting is also better for your health, as it prevents dirt from remaining in the air, improving the air quality in your home.\n\n\n\n Few things feel as wonderful as freshly washed sheets. Knowing what\u2019s on dirty sheets may inspire you to make\u00a0laundering your bed sheets a priority each week. Even if you shower at night, dirt, dust, dead skin cells, dust mites, sweat, bacteria, pet hair and dander, and all sorts of other things can find their way into your bed\n\n\n\n Monthly household cleaning gives attention to more of the nitty-gritty details of a home that are less noticeable unless they\u2019re under scrutiny. From tucked-away areas to places that need a longer reach to properly wash, monthly cleaning goes deeper than a surface level clean. Just because you can\u2019t see it, doesn\u2019t mean that the dirt, grime, or bacteria doesn\u2019t exist.\n\n\n\n In some cases, a monthly cleaning schedule is as much about safety as it is about keeping the house clean. These monthly inspections of specific areas and appliances serve as a preventative measure to avoid larger messes or costly repairs in the future.\n\n\n\n furniture dusting only covers areas within reach. Higher-up areas still accumulate dust, but cleaning them on a weekly basis may be too time-consuming. This category includes areas such as above the cabinets, the blades of a ceiling fan, and on top of the refrigerator. Dust that settles higher up can eventually fall onto cleaner surfaces or people in your home.\n\n\n\n You spend a lot of time and money selecting your furniture, and their cleanliness can be deceptive. Upholstered furniture can trap smells, inadvertently making your house appear to have an aroma. All furniture collects dust;\u00a0deep cleaning your furniture pieces\u00a0extends their longevity and makes them look and smell fresh again.\n\n\n\n When the sun shines, there are no secrets about the cleanliness of a window. Clean windows let in a lot more natural light than grimey windows, which can appear cloudy.\u00a0Cleaning the windows each month\u00a0helps prevent dirt buildup and brightens your home with more natural light.\n\n\n\n It feels good to get rid of clutter and help someone else in the long run.\u00a0Go through your closets\u00a0and get rid of clothing pieces that are seldom (or never) worn. These pieces can be donated for someone else to enjoy, and you can use your closet for wardrobe items that you actually wear.\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n Sometimes, the smell from the trash can is not because the trash needs to be taken out. The inside of a trash bin is a breeding ground for germs, bacteria, dirt, and the smells that go with them.\u00a0A dirty trash can\u00a0is often left off the cleaning list because a trash bag liner theoretically keeps the gross stuff out, but there can actually be deeper stinkier issues.\n\n\n\n Annual cleaning tasks are generally more involved, taking more time to complete than tasks done more frequently. These areas and action items have a year to accumulate dirt, grime, and clutter, but they need to be cleaned less often if homeowners keep on top of their daily, weekly, and annual cleaning schedule. Yearly house cleaning tasks are wonderful because they can wait to be done, but they shouldn\u2019t be neglected. They are a necessary part of a thorough home cleaning routine.\n\n\n\n Appliances are large and heavy, making them perfect for trapping dirt. Find someone who can help you\u00a0move appliances like your fridge, oven, laundry machines, etc., so you can sweep and scrub the floors and walls behind them (and give the appliances a once-over too!). This removes dirt and bacteria and helps our appliances run more efficiently.\n\n\n\n Any soft material should be deep cleaned yearly, such as sofas, chairs, or cushioned ottomans. Fabric material, especially if it\u2019s a dark color, does an excellent job of hiding stains that can seep deeper than the surface and into the furniture.\u00a0Deep clean and shampoo the upholstery\u00a0to remove any hidden dirt, stains, or smells.\n\n\n\n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Coming home to a clean house is a wonderful feeling, but it does not last forever.
