15+ TIPS ON HOW TO KEEP A CLEAN HOUSE
Keep a Home Cleaning Schedule: One of my favorite tips ever is to make sure you divide your rooms throughout the week. How to keep a clean house is to make sure you are organized and have a schedule! For example, on Sundays, you focus on a deep clean, Mondays you do laundry, Tuesdays you mop, etc, etc. The list can go on and should be according to how you want for your house!
Keep your house smelling good: I think this is a good way to make sure that dog smells are out of your house as well. Of course you need to keep your house clean in general. But making it smell good is a good practice to have to have your guests also complimenting your house!
Some techniques: Lemon + Vanilla + Rosemary on the stovetop, boil for 10 minutes and simmer for an hour!
Febreze sprays
Carpet Powder (a must for animals in the house)
Vacuum Every Day: This can be a way to make sure you are cleaning up dust and dirt as well. Get a robot vacuum or a high quality vacuum to make it easier for you to vacuum. Preferably without a cord so you really van vacuum at any time.
Dust Once A Week: Fireplaces, tables, fans, etc… If you continue to dust, there will be less dust/dirt, less mess for you to clean up later as well!
Vacuum couches once a month: I strongly believe that we have to clean our couches…like how often have we skipped this part?! Just do it!!! It takes about 30 minutes for me to do completely.
Mop Once A Week: I have to mop about three times a week because of my dog bringing in mud. But it is a good blessing to have those paws 🙂 Mopping with hot water really makes sure to deep clean your floors. If you wear shoes in your house, you probably have to do it a lot more.
Wipe your counters every day: I honestly do not know if I can sleep without wiping my kitchen counters every night. I use the Dawn PowerWash and microfiber towels and that is it! It literally is so helpful when you start to clean them every day.
Use A Cleaning Caddy: I saw another blogger use a cleaning caddy to take around the house instead of stopping and going back to grab more supplies.
Minimize Cleaning Supplies: This follows up from my last tip, make sure you do your research and find some good cleaning supplies for each task. You shouldn’t really rack up a lot of cleaning supplies that do the same thing. Find some good ones: I have a post related to it right here {The Easiest Home Cleaning Checklist}
Organization: One of the last tips I have is to make sure you create an organized system in every room/section you possibly can. How to keep a clean house is making sure you put things back where they are supposed to be at. If you have dishes out all the time, it will look messy. So really just make sure that you are doing the best you can. Then you are able to put things wherever they belong!
