5 Tips For a Clean Home

It’s not always easy to keep a clean house when you live with other people. It can be especially challenging if you have a messy partner or children. The great news is that there are some tips out there that can help you keep your house clean and tidy even with messy roommates. Take a look at some of the best tips to keep your house looking great every day of the week.

Clean Your Bathroom Every Day

The bathroom is easily one of the most revealing parts of your home. In other words— if you let it slide, then it will show. The bathroom is something that you should wipe down every single day. From your bathroom vanity to your mirrors, to your faucets, a quick wipe down will stop buildup from forming and creating an even bigger job to tackle later. It helps to have a few sponges handy, and some cleaning product so that it’s a simple 5-minute job every single day.

Make Your Bed

A lot of people fail to make their bed not realizing that it is one of the simplest and most effective ways to make your house look clean. It doesn’t matter how clean your entire house is, if you have an unmade bed, it will instantly make your house look untidy. If you hate making your bed because you have multiple blankets and sheets, consider ditching the layers and sleeping with a duvet only. Then making your bed becomes an easy 30-second process.

Do Laundry Every Single Day

This is especially important, especially if you have kids. Letting your laundry pile up and pile up is only creating a huge job for yourself to do later on. Instead of letting it build up, do one small load of laundry every single day. Set a time for laundry at the same point every day, and make it a habit of folding while you listen to your favorite podcast or watch a show.

Take Off Your Shoes

If you hate having to mop your floors several times a week, then you’re not alone! News flash — nobody loves cleaning floors! The best way to cut down your time between mopping floors is to take off your shoes every time you get home. This simple yet effective action will save you the trouble of having to clean your floors more often.

Enlist Your Family Members

Chances are if you’re reading this article then you might be the only one in your house who cares about its cleanliness. Consider putting your foot down and enlisting your other family members to help with the cleaning duties. Making a schedule is a handy way to make sure everyone does their part, and you’re not stuck with all of the dirty work!
