Daily Cleaning

Declutter on the go: Don’t leave things lying around. If you see something that will take less than 5 minutes to put away, then put it away!

Wash up while you are cooking: Washing up and wiping down the kitchen sides whilst you are cooking means you don’t have to do it after dinner when your motivation is low.

Wipe up any spills immediately: Wiping up spills stops them from setting and staining your floors.

Tidy up before bed: Put aside just 10 minutes to walk through your home and quickly tidy up anything that’s been left out. It doesn’t take long but it will have a massive impact on keeping your home tidy.

Spot clean your bathroom: Don’t wait until your bathroom is filthy before cleaning it! Clean up any spots in your bathroom that are dirty as you see them. Wipe down your sink if its looking dusty, rinse your bath if it’s not as sparkling as normal etc.

Weekly Cleaning

Clean the floor: Once a week (at least) hoover and mop your floors. Even if they don’t look too dirty, it’s good to keep on top of it.

Do your washing: Take the time to do your washing. The last thing you need in your home is a huge pile of washing taking over your room.

Monthly Cleaning

Clean your fridge: It’s important to clean and tidy your fridge once a month. You wouldn’t eat off a dirty surface so leave your food sitting in a dirty fridge. And don’t forget to throw away any food that is out of date!

Wash your sofa cushion covers: Take the covers off your sofa cushions and give them a wash. You’ll be surprised how much dirt they actually accumulate from everyday use.

Clean under your furniture: Move out your sofa, bed and coffee tables etc and clean behind/underneath them. These are the places that collect the most dust and lost socks!

Wash your windows: Give the inside of your windows a quick wipe over. They can get very dirty especially if you have kids with sticky fingers or pets!
