We’ve all experienced the struggle of cleaning our home to the fullest
extent, only to have it dirty again in seemingly no time. At The Maids
Dallas, we’ve seen some of our customers have the cleanest homes
by the time we leave. When we come back to clean again, the home may look
like a disaster hit it. This is an all too common situation and many people
are unsure of what they can do to keep their home organized between cleanings.
They may believe it’s too hard to maintain the cleanliness, but
in fact, there are certain things you can do to ensure your home stays
organized.
When we leave, you can make sure you do things each day that will help
you maintain the clean, keep your home organized, and give you the best
possible clean day in and day out. Below, our Dallas maids provide you
tips on what you can do.
Set Aside Time Each Day to Do Certain Chores
Usually, people have issues doing their chores around the home because
they wait till the last minute and let everything build up. Then it becomes
on big task that nobody wants to tackle. Instead of letting things build
up, set tasks for each day and make time to do them. For instance, do
a single load of laundry each day. While that is going, you can vacuum
the home one day. You can dust and wipe down furniture the next. Clean
the bathroom the next, etc. By doing this, you are making it so you are
doing a little each day, instead of a lot one day. If there’s a
lot to do, you tend to just leave the mess because you are already tired.
Plan Your Dinners Early
If you come home, feel like you don’t have time, and want to make
dinner, you usually rush to a decision and can make a mess. By planning
dinner early, you know what you’re going to use, what dishes you
need, and can set plans to clean after your done. You will be able to
stay organized, make your dinner, and keep the kitchen from piling up.
Clean Up Immediately
We don’t mean drop everything that you’re doing to clean, but
if you cook dinner, clean once you’re done. If you are opening mail
in the living room, make sure your papers are organized or thrown out.
Don’t allow your dirty dishes or a big mess to sit there. If you
clean immediately, you are doing something while you’re already
active. If you take the time to sit down and rest before you proceed to
clean, you may become too comfortable to want to do anything.
Make a Schedule
If you have trouble remembering what tasks need to be done on each day,
you should consider making a schedule. Set reminders for yourself on what
needs to be done, to put away laundry or dishes, and to make sure you
are good to go the next day. You can even set a routine for before you
go to bed such as brushing your teeth and cleaning the sink, picking out
your clothes the night before so you avoid throwing unused clothes on
the floor, and more. In the morning, you can make the bed. This keeps
you and your home organized and in perfect condition for your next thorough cleaning.
