CLEAN SMARTER, NOT HARDER Cleaning doesn’t have to be a painstaking process. Being strategic in your cleaning can reduce the amount of effort you actually have to put into making your home sparkle. CLEAN TOP TO BOTTOM
TACKLE CLUTTER FIRST Before you start cleaning,
FOCUS ON HIGH-TRAFFIC AREAS Prioritize a quick daily cleaning of the areas that get the most use such as the kitchen, bathroom and living room. These areas accumulate dirt and grime the fastest, making it important to give them regular attention.
When cleaning a room, start from the top and work your way down. For example, start by dusting the ceiling fan and the highest shelves, then move on to tables and counters before finishing with the floor. This way, you won’t accidentally dirty up surfaces you’ve already cleaned.
declutter the space by putting things back where they belong instead of moving them out of the way to deal with later. Having a clear area helps so you can properly clean it without missing any spots.
