Do you often find yourself short on time to perform regular cleaning at home? Life is busy and sometimes as much as we want to get to tidying up, it will always get pushed back on our schedule.
There however is a way to chip away at our cleaning duties, or at least maintain the place long enough for us to deep clean. There are many, many tiny cleaning tasks that you can do to make a difference in your home, even if deep cleaning is far away, and it this article we will take a look at a few of them.
Clean your tables/desks
Cleaning the desks and tables at your place is so easy to do and it can provide such a big payoff for the couple of minutes that it would take you. Whether you are eating or tackling other tasks while sitting at your desk/table, you will feel significantly more relaxed, refreshed, and at peace when their surfaces are spotless.
Messy environments can impact your mood negatively, and the same applies whenever you sit down to have a meal or look over some paperwork and the surfaces you are using are messy or unclean. Five minutes could easily suffice to go through the tables at your home, wiping dust or leftover crumbs, or simply tidy up and declutter them.
Setting your mind to do it right after you finish your activity there, will save you a lot of time, reduce backtracking and will also allow you to have the surface all set for future use.
Make the bed
Fixing your bed right as you get up will give your bedroom a soothing look and it will make it so much easier to just jump right back into it at the end of the day. Straighten out the sheets, set the pillows properly and throw over and straighten the covers and you are ready for the next resting session. Also while at it check if your bleeding is due for a clean-up.
Wash the mirrors around the house
See a spot on your bathroom mirror? It can be annoying, but the good news is you need a tiny bit of glass cleaner and two pieces of cloth (one for applying the cleaner and one for wiping it out) and your mirror will be as good as new in no time.
Throw out the trash
Do you sense a funny smell? Check out your bins and even if they are not completely full set the bags by or outside your front door and throw them out on your way out. Easily a much fresher environment and even less than 5 minutes to achieve it.
Clean the stove
Seeing spills and sense an unpleasant smell coming from the stove when you cook? Grab a sponge and your cleaner. You can easily wipe away any leftover food or spills plaguing the heating plates and restore the look of your stove as well as have only the aroma of your tasty meals fill the air.
Conclusion
These small cleaning tasks might not seem like much, but they are so seamless and easy to achieve. At the same time provide so many benefits, that you will feel immediate relief after performing them and they will significantly reduce the need for deeper cleaning but also let you asses when your home is due for one.
