Want to get your house cleaning done fast? Expecting guests, and don’t want them to see a dirty home, but you’re running low on time? Here are five easy ways to get all the housekeeping in your Virginia Beach home done quickly.
Schedule
Hindsight is 20/20, but scheduling a day to clean your home will mean you won’t have to rush around next time. You may want to handle each room on different days; for example, handling the bathroom on Tuesdays and taking care of the master bedroom on Fridays. Plus, if you miss a room because of a scheduling conflict, you will have only missed a little bit of time instead of the whole house. If you try to handle your house cleaning in one fell swoop, you’ll just tire yourself out and nothing will get done.
Put products in one area
Many of our cleaning efforts are devoted to gathering up the necessary cleaning products. An easy way to avoid this time waster is to put all the cleaning products in one area. If you have more than one bathroom, put the same products in each. You won’t have to carry toilet brushes from room to room, and won’t suffer from cleaning burnout.
If you put the cleaning products in a place where they can be seen, you are more likely to clean on a regular basis. You will find yourself keeping your home more clean, meaning less of a housekeeping efforts.
Reduce clutter
If your home is full of belongings, it will be difficult to keep it clean. Divesting yourself of clutter is one of the best ways to ensure a fast clean. How many times have you found it difficult to vacuum because you have too much furniture, or dust because the tops of your dressers and tables are covered in trinkets? Reducing the amount of stuff you have in each room will make your house look more aesthetically pleasing and easier to clean, and will reduce stress. You’ll feel more calm and tranquil in a decluttered home.
For bathrooms and kitchens, here are three tips each to make the process go faster:
Bathrooms
- Steam will loosen dirt, and make wiping down the tub or shower a lot easier. So, clean it after someone is done cleaning themselves.
- Use vinegar on shower door tracks to remove any mildew and mold. Pour vinegar into the track, and let it sit for five minutes. Remove it by rinsing.
- A sponge mop can clean shower walls in a cinch. Plus, it save you from constant stretching and bending.
Kitchens
- Mix dishwasher detergent with a gallon hot water. This solution will greatly clean stoves, floors, fridges, glass, walls and more.
- Make stainless steel shine by putting white vinegar on a cloth and wiping.
- Place a coffee cup halfway filled with water, and cook on high for two minutes. The steam will loosen any baked on food.
