With the demands of a hectic work life, family responsibilities, and social commitments—not to mention finding time for yourself—it can seem impossible to dedicate hours to thoroughly cleaning your home.
Fortunately, there are practical steps and tools you can use to make this daunting task more approachable. By beginning with manageable tasks, following a clear plan, and equipping yourself with the right supplies, you can achieve a spotless home without excessive stress. With Amazon Prime Day approaching, it’s an ideal opportunity to stock up on cleaning essentials at great prices. That’s why Mytour and Roborock have collaborated to provide seven actionable tips to simplify your deep cleaning process.
1. Begin by tackling clutter and simpler chores.
A deep clean doesn’t always require tackling the biggest tasks first—starting with smaller, achievable goals can set the tone. Focus on decluttering, changing bed linens, dusting and wiping down light fixtures, or organizing surfaces. Sanitize frequently touched items like doorknobs, remotes, and light switches, or kick off with a load of laundry. Completing these smaller tasks can build momentum and keep you motivated to tackle the rest.
2. Develop a thorough cleaning plan—and commit to it.
While some prefer cleaning their home room by room, others advocate for a task-by-task approach—such as dusting the entire house, wiping all mirrors and counters, and then vacuuming or mopping—or beginning with the messiest areas. Ultimately, the choice depends on your preference, as both methods are effective. A general rule is to clean from top to bottom, starting with ceiling fixtures and moving down to the floors, ensuring no spot is missed. To maintain focus, start on one side of the room and move systematically in a chosen direction, covering every area without jumping ahead.
3. Prioritize the messiest rooms in your home.
Experts often suggest tackling the dirtiest spaces—usually the kitchen and bathroom—first, as they demand the most effort and time. In the kitchen, clean cabinet tops, soak stove burners, thoroughly wipe appliances inside and out, and clear countertops for a complete scrub. Next, move to the bathroom to clean the toilet thoroughly, scrub the tub (including the showerhead), and address the sink, mirrors, and windows. Wash bathmats and shower curtains, and replace worn-out liners. After dusting, sweep or vacuum bathroom tiles before mopping them clean.
4. Organize and clean your cabinets and cupboards.
It’s easy to overlook what’s hidden behind closed doors, but a thorough clean isn’t complete without addressing your cabinets and cupboards. Empty them entirely, clean both the interior and exterior, and sort through items to decide what to discard, store, or donate. Utilizing organizers and shelving units can help streamline your space, making items more accessible and easier to locate.
5. Pay attention to your upholstery, curtains, and rugs.
A deep cleaning session is the perfect opportunity to go the extra mile. Use a handheld vacuum or attachment to remove every speck of debris from couches and upholstered chairs—crumbs seem to find the most hidden spots! Don’t forget to vacuum curtains and clean blinds with a damp cloth (yes, it’s tedious but necessary). Finally, shampoo your rugs to complete the refreshed look of your space.
6. Leverage technology to streamline your cleaning process.
You don’t have to handle every cleaning task manually. Investing in advanced cleaning tools can save time and effort, allowing you to focus on other household chores. Robot vacuums and mops are quieter, more efficient, and often equipped with sensors or cameras to navigate around obstacles. Many can be controlled via apps or smart home devices, giving you one less thing to worry about while maintaining a spotless home.
7. Ensure major appliances and your home’s exterior get the attention they deserve.
While you may have dusted appliances like your dishwasher or microwave earlier, now’s the time to give them a thorough cleaning. Empty your fridge completely, discarding expired or spoiled items, and wipe down all interior surfaces before restocking. Don’t forget to scrub the oven interior and door. Finish by tidying up the exterior of your home, whether it’s yard work, gardening, or sprucing up your porch or doorstep.
