Cleaning your home can feel overwhelming, especially if no one ever taught you the basics. The good news? It’s never too late to learn! Whether you’re preparing for a fresh start or just trying to maintain a comfortable and organized space, we’ve got some easy-to-follow steps and tips to make cleaning less daunting. Plus, if you need a helping hand, Cleanzilla Cleaning is here to provide top-notch cleaning services that will leave your home sparkling.
1. Start Small: The 15-Minute Rule
One of the most common reasons people avoid cleaning is the feeling that it will take forever. Instead of tackling your entire home at once, start small. Set a timer for 15 minutes and focus on one area—like a countertop, your bathroom sink, or your nightstand. This quick burst of productivity helps build momentum and makes cleaning feel more manageable.
Pro Tip: If you’re short on time or energy, Cleanzilla’s one-time cleaning services can help you start fresh, leaving only the easy maintenance to you.
2. Gather Your Tools
Having the right cleaning tools and supplies can make all the difference. A basic cleaning kit should include:
- Multi-purpose cleaner
- Glass cleaner
- Microfiber cloths
- Sponges
- Scrubbing brush
- Mop and bucket (or a steam mop)
- Vacuum cleaner
Keep your supplies organized in a caddy so they’re easy to carry from room to room. Not sure what to buy? Our professional cleaners bring high-quality, eco-friendly products to every Cleanzilla appointment, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.
3. Learn the Golden Rule: Top to Bottom, Left to Right
When cleaning any surface, always start at the top and work your way down. Dust and dirt naturally fall downward, so starting from the top ensures you won’t accidentally dirty areas you’ve already cleaned. Similarly, clean from left to right to make sure you cover every spot systematically.
4. Declutter First
Before you start cleaning, spend a few minutes decluttering. Remove items that don’t belong in the area you’re cleaning, like dishes in the living room or laundry on the bathroom floor. Decluttering creates a blank canvas, making it easier to clean effectively.
Did You Know? Cleanzilla’s recurring cleaning services include organizing and tidying up spaces to help you maintain a clutter-free environment effortlessly.
5. Focus on High-Touch Areas
Pay special attention to surfaces you touch frequently, like light switches, doorknobs, and countertops. These areas are often breeding grounds for germs and bacteria. A quick wipe with a disinfectant can go a long way in maintaining a healthy home.
6. Make It a Habit
Consistency is key when it comes to keeping your home clean. Create a simple cleaning schedule that works for you. For example:
- Daily: Make your bed, wash dishes, and do a quick tidy-up.
- Weekly: Vacuum, mop floors, and clean bathrooms.
- Monthly: Dust baseboards, wash windows, and deep-clean appliances.
Don’t have the time? Cleanzilla’s flexible cleaning plans let you choose weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly services to ensure your home stays spotless.
7. Don’t Be Too Hard on Yourself
Learning to clean takes practice, and it’s okay if your home doesn’t look perfect right away. Celebrate small wins and focus on progress, not perfection.
