Timesaving Hacks for Efficient Cleaning
If you’re a busy person, cleaning is often the last thing you want to do. After a hard day at work, you want to sit down and relax with your favorite beverage. You don’t want to be on your hands and knees scrubbing a toilet.
Luckily, cleaning your house efficiently is possible. Here’s how.
Trust the system
Coming up with a system for cleaning your house will pay dividends. In fact, experts say it could cut the amount of time you spend cleaning your house in half. Start cleaning the house in the same place, and go in the same order every time. Within each room, start in the same spot and end in the same spot every time as well.
Being consistent (i.e., doing the same thing every time you clean) will make the job much easier. It allows you to be methodical and know exactly how much time it takes to clean your whole home.
Have your cleaning tools ready
Another of our timesaving tricks to clean your house efficiently is to have a caddy containing all your cleaning tools. Putting all the tools together in one portable place will make it much simpler to get the job done. You won’t waste time looking for what you need to clean, and you won’t waste time running up and down the stairs to get paper towels or antibacterial spray.
Go with a window squeegee
Many people reach for the paper towels and Windex to clean their windows. Instead, try out a professional-grade window squeegee. Put a drop of soap in a gallon of water; use a cloth to apply the water to the window; then use the squeegee to remove it. You’ll have streak-free windows every time.
Move the clutter
Before you even start, move all the items that are in the way. This gives you an opportunity to consider whether each item should be stored, thrown away or donated. Then you can get to cleaning your house efficiently because you don’t have to keep moving stuff to clean surfaces. Plus, by getting stuff out of the way, your home will begin appearing cleaner right away.
Let time work for you on tubs, sinks and toilets
Cleaning bathrooms is no one’s favorite job. Fortunately, this is a job you can make easier. Spray the sinks, tubs and toilets first. Leave them alone for a few minutes to allow the cleaner to work on dirt and stains. While that’s going on, you have time to clean elsewhere. Come back after a while, and wipe everything down. This way, time does some of the work for you.
