Cleaning and organizing your home can be intimidating for a lot of people. The thought of it puts people off and by the time they actually want to start, their house is dirty, disorganized, and uninviting. However, with the following tips, you can make it easier for yourself and make your house a clean and organized haven.
Have a Cleaning Schedule
Determine which chores need daily, weekly or monthly clean-up. Draw up a timetable and place it somewhere visible where it will catch your attention.
Daily Chores
- Make your bed immediately you wake up
- Wash up the dishes after you have finished eating
- Wipe down messes as soon as it happens
- Sort the mail out of the mailbox by reading and placing them in appropriate boxes e.g. coupons, bills, and personal letters
Weekly Chores
Determine which duties can be done on a weekly basis, draw up a timetable and execute it for example.
- Monday- Laundry
- Tuesday- Mopping
- Wednesday-Vacuuming
- Thursday- Organizing and sorting
- Friday -Dusting
- Saturday- Mowing
- Sunday- Rest day
Monthly Chores
These are chores that are involving and tedious. Set a day each month to tackle them. For example, you can deep clean your garage, wash the carpet and clean your roof once a month.
Room by Room Takedown
Do not overwhelm yourself by trying to do everything at once, instead plan for your cleaning and organization on a room-to-room basis. Start with the smallest simple room in your house that won’t require much work and finish in rooms that require your detailed attention. A good place to start is the pantry and kid’s playroom.
Declutter
You will be surprised by the amount of junk you have after sorting and organizing your home. You can declutter your home by doing the following
Get Rid of Stuff
Look around your home, do you need all that stuff? Do you need all the fancy toys your kids no longer use? A lot of times we hold on to things that have served their purpose. Declutter by donating stuff and throwing away things that are no longer usable.
Identify a Place for Everything
You are more likely to put things away when they have a designated place. You can achieve this by labeling draws, storage boxes, and baskets to indicate where each item should be each time.
